I. That the Report now read be adopted and circulated under the direction .of the Committee; and that this Meeting thankfully acknowledges the proofs of Divine favour and protection which have been afforded to the Society, and desires that these may piove effectual motives to more extensive exertions to convey the knowledge of Christ to the multitudes of our fellow men, still involved in error, and the most debasing superstition.

II. That this Meeting is deeply sensible of the kindness shewn by the Ministers and other individuals, who have assisted in various ways, to procure pecuniary aid for the Society, during the past year, and trusts that the present low state of the funds will lead all who value the object to which its labours are directed, to vigorous efforts to replenish them.

Moved by the Rev. J o s e p h K in g h o r n of Norwich, seconded by the Rev. E u s t a c e C a r e y from Calcutta,

* III. That as inconveniences have been found to arise from the small number of Members composing the Central Committee, the following alterations be made in the “ Plan of the Society,” viz. in Rule V. for “ fifty/' to read “ eighty;” aud in Rule VII. to insert 4 the words “ twenty-five,” instead of “ twenty-one," and “ sixteen,” instead of “ twelve;” adding also, “ the Committee to be em­ powered to fill up, jpro tempore, any vacancies from death or resig­ nation,” and that the Corresponding Committee be henceforth discontinued.*

M oved by the Rev. J o s h u a M a r s h m a n , D.D. from Seram- pore, seconded by the Rev. Mr. R ees, of the Wesleyan Society,

THE WEST INDIAN REPORTER.

cc A new method of framing and dispersing libels was invented by the leaders of popular discontent. Petitions to Parliament were drawn * * *. These petitions became secrct bonds of association among the subscribers—Hume's England, Charles I. “ Such aid rather adds to our incumbrances than increases our power."—Mr. Canning on Anti-Slavery Petitions. “ Immediate emancipation, such as some of the more enthusiastic in this country require, would, without those preliminary measures which are necessary to prepare the mind of the negro for the change, merely afford a sanction to the commission of murder, and an encouragement to the most dreadful scenes of plunder and devastation.'"—Sir George Murray, December 13, 1830. “ What would be the state of our colonies supposing emancipation could immediately be granted and compensation given ? All who were able would leave the colony, having no inducement to remain. There would be no link by which society could be held together — there would be no magistracy—no power by which wrong was to be punished, or right secured ; and the colonies would present a scene o f civil war, and a succession of bar­ barous conflicts, unmitigated by any of those checks which, in the civilized portion of the world, are found to soften the horrors of the fiercest party hostility.” — Sir Robert Peel.

DESIGNS OF THE ANTI-COLONISTS. WE considered it necessary to caution our readers against placing im­ plicit confidence in the new and insidious tone of moderation adopted by the abolitionists, during the recent discussion of the question of Protection to West India .property. The opposition of the principal leaders of the sectaries to the desire of the Colonists that an inquiry should be instituted into the actual condition of the labouring classes in our sugar Colonies, and the continuance of a system of calumny and misrepresentation through the avowed organ of the Anti-Colonial party,— are quite sufficient to justify us in repeating that caution. 18 Designs of the Anti-Colonists. The degraded character of the organ alluded to is now, ’tis true, well known ; and its mendacity has been repeatedly declared even in the face of Parliament: but it nevertheless continues to be extensively circulated and industriously distributed amongst the lower orders of shopkeepers, tradesmen, and operatives—the principal adherents of the sectaries through­ out the kingdom:—it continues to be the text book from which the vilifiers of the Colonists take their information; they repeat at public meetings the ready-made falsehoods set forth in it; and it then re-echoes these speeches, as containing the free and unbiassed sentiments of the speakers!! With what degree of sincerity or consistency can Mr. T. Macaijla y, or any other leader of the Anti-Colonists, talk of conciliation and depre­ cate the use of “ irritating and violent language,” whilst these mendacious statements are continued under the express direction of the Anti-Colonial Society ? How can he satisfy any reasonable man that conciliation and fair discussion are desired by his party, while the sectaries and others at Caine,—to the maintenance of whose opinions he stands pledged,— address Parliament in such language as the following—published and circulated within these few days, and accompanied by other statements equally objectionable. These calumniators set forth that throughout the West Indies there exists “ a state of society in which human beings are goaded to labour, under a tropical sun, by the lashes of the cart-whip—in which they are exposed to dreadful lacerations and cruel tortures, at the arbitrary will of brutal drivers and overseers—in which the very women are sub­ jected to indecent exposure and to public scourging—in which from the excess of labour required of them, the great body of the people are virtually deprived of the Sabbath, whether as a day of rest from their toil, or as one to be devoted by them to the duties and services of religion ;—a state of society, in which husbands and wives, parents and children, may be torn asunder for ever, without an option on their part, or a moment’s warning;— in short, a state of society so demoralized, that amongst its victims Christian rites and domestic ties are comparatively unknown—in which matrimony is the exception, licentiousness the rule !" We would ask every unprejudiced person in the United Kingdom whether any reliance can be placed on the professions of men capable of sanctioning the publication of such statements—statements which they must be fully aware are essentially false, if not completely unfounded ? Conciliation, indeed!—We again entreat every lover of substantial justice and true humanity to inform himself thoroughly on the West India ques­ tion, and we earnestly recommend to all who are directly interested in the defence of West India property, and in the well-being of the negroes, to look at facts, and to disregard mere professions— (vox et prceterea nihil) all those declarations of moderation which are so completely at variance with the past and present conduct of their bitter and inveterate enemies;— we put them on their guard not to relax, for one moment, their defensive attitude; or to suppose that the Sectaries are now inclined to acquiesce in measures of sound equity, and of true humanity. To the opinion of Mr. FoweLi. Buxton, that the demand of the West Indiaus for inquiry originated in a desire to create delay—we do not hesi­ tate to give the most unqualified contradiction! W e assert, on the con­ trary, that the result of a fair and impartial inquiry would have had this Designs of the Anti-Colonists. 19 effect—it would have disabused the public mind of all that prejudice which has been so artfully instilled by the manoeuvres of the disappointed mis­ sionaries, and it would have put an end to that clamour and irritation which has been raised upon this subject, and which has unhappily not only diverted the attention of too many influential persons from tho consideration of the ¿rue means of relieving the Colonists, and bettering the condition of the negroes—but has also drawn off the attention of many humane persons from the sufferings and privations sustained by the lower orders under their immediate care and protection at home !* It is with much regret that we feel it necessary to notice some observa­ tions of the late Colonial Secretary on this question. Sir George Murray is reported to have said that he “ saw no good that could possibly be pro­ duced by the appointment of a commission of inquiry, except that it would create delay.” We have no doubt that all who have access to authentic and unpolluted sources of information are quite satisfied of the injustice and iniquity of the late outcry against the Colonists; and we have fre­ quently had occasion to lament that those who were officially bound to stand between the Colonists and their assailants—shrunk from the task. “ I consider it to be their duty/’ said Mr. K e ith D ouglas, “ to palliate, to alleviate or explain, whatever ought to be dealt with in that way ; and what requires correction they ought to take the most fit way of correct­ ing.” Although his Majesty’s late ministers must have been perfectly satisfied that the clamour raised against the West Indians was unjust, they should have also been aware that their silence tended to give strength to a different impression, which it was their duty to prevent. Had they manfully performed this task, inquiry might have been less necessary, because the delusions practised by the Anti-Colonists could not, if they had been promptly met and contradicted from the proper quarter, have taken effect. “ The discussions of late years that have arisen in this House have, in general, ended in this way—they have given the impres­ sion of little else than a mere squabble between the contending parties, the Government, whose responsible duty it is to identify themselves with every thing that concerns these possessions, standing aloof, and shrinking from entering, as principals, into the discussion.”— Inquiry, therefore, would correct those evils which it was the bounden duty of the Colonial Department to have opposed at the commencement. “ I trust,” said Mr. Douglas, in continuance, “ the present Government will deal responsibly with the question in this way; for the property in the slave colonies has been materially injured by the conduct of the late colonial Government, in shrinking from the discharge of its duty.” Sir George says that he had always supposed “ that to abstain from any extraordinary activity in the measures to be carried into effect with

* The Times Newspaper of the 28th of December last, speaking of the unfortunate machine breakers and others, for trial at Winchester, states, “ It is worthy of observa­ tion, that of the total number of prisoners, only twenty-five (less than one to five) can read and write, thirty-seven (about one to four) can read only ; ¿he remainder, who can, neither read nor write, being seventy-six.” Blush, ye pretended philanthropists, who, neglecting the cause of humanity at your own doors, exhaust your pharisaical charity on unknown objects, leaving your own brethren at home in the grossest ignorance! Out of one hundred and thirty-eight free bom Englishmen, here are considerably more than one half who can read nor write ! Yet from that part of the country many petitions have been presented complaining that the negroes are kept in a state of ignorance ! ! 20 Designs of the Anti-Colonists. respect to the Colonies, was a merit rather than a defect.” If this inactivity was meritorious, we regret that we cannot fully award the merit to those who lately superintended the Colonial Department, for it is but too evi­ dent that measures generally unnecessary, and often directly inimical to the interests of the Colonists—were pressed forward with an anxiety and per­ severance more in accordance with the intemperate zeal of the abolitionists, than with a due regard for the interests and feelings of those whose pro­ perty was seriously involved. Witness the attempts repeatedly made to dictate to the Assembly of Jamaica, by disallowing their bills for amelio­ rating the condition of the slaves;—that anxiety to legislate for the crown colonies which has created such universal discontent, especially in the Mau­ ritius,* and the repeated attempts to controul the legislature of Jamaica, and prevent them placing the Sectarian preachers under that wholesome regulation which the indiscreet conduct of individuals renders absolutely necessary, not only with regard to the safety of the whites, but also to the welfare and sound religious instruction of the negroes. The main points at issue between the Colonial-office and the Assembly of Jamaica are, the suppression of meetings at unseasonable hours of the night, and the practice of collecting money from the slaves,—practices adopted by the sectaries, and liable to very great abuse. On a former occasion Sir George Murray, to the surprise of every well-informed person, is said to have stated, that “ in the conversion of the negroes he preferred the dissenting missionaries to the regular clergy, inasmuch as the enthusiasm, of the former wrought more powerfully on the uneducated!” And, recently, that his object during the time of his connection with the Colonies, “ was to give a fu ll and complete lib e r t y to all sects” and to curb, as much as possible, that spirit of intolerance which, he says, was unhappily too prevalent, “ being at variance with the liberal and enlightened opinions o f the age.” f However much we may feel bound to give credit to Sir George Murray for sincerity and good intention, the Colonists can scarcely view the first of these declarations in any other light than as a direct encouragement to the fanatic, and as being very likely to paralize the efforts of the discreet and sober-minded; and the second as sanctioning those attempts which are now openly made, for the entire destruction of West India property! Many persons, even in Europe, are of opinion that these liberal and enlightened ideas, operating on minds incapable of distinguishing between liberty and licentiousness, are very apt to lead the ignorant to this prac­ tical conclusion—namely, that the poor must share equally with the rich ! It is matter of regret that any person holding a responsible situation in reference to these Colonies should hazard such remarks, or consider them in any degree applicable to the state of society there. The Colonists have to perform the difficult task of educating a large mass of people, in a state of slavery. How to do this in a safe and effi­ cient manner, so that the effect may be permanent, is the only question ; and if, as has been stated, on the most indubitable authority, some of the missionaries “ preach and teach sedition, even from the pulpit, and by mis­ representation and falsehood endeavour to cast odium upon all the public

Designs of the Anti-Colonists. 21 authorities of the island;” and that “ the consequences have been abject poverty, loss of comfort, and discontent amongst the slaves frequenting their chapels, and deterioration of property to their masters,” is it, we would ask, safe or desirable that such men should be “ at full and com­ plete liberty to go and come freely,” and to place legislative enactments in Jamaica, or in any other colony, at complete defiance ? One of these missionaries, by his own statement, collected £1,000, in two months, among poor slaves and negroes, and his quarterly sale of monthly tickets is said to have produced from £30 to £40. There is too much reason to believe that many of the most ignorant negroes actually consider these monthly tickets (which have a text of Scripture written on them) as a charm to defend them against evil in this world, and as a pass­ port to Heaven, should they die within the current quarter!* We would ask any sober-minded man whether it is desirable to leave such “ enthu­ siasm” without due regulation ?—or prudent in a minister of the crown to object to enactments discouraging nightly meetings of negroes, at which all sorts of plans may, eventually, be devised for destroying the peace of society, and for involving the whole Island in conflagration and bloodshed ? When we contrast these opinions with the sound and statesman-like views of Sir R o b e r t P e e l , it places the great danger of trifling with this ques­ tion in a strong point of view. “ I cannot,” said the Right Hon. Gentleman, u avoid feeling how much mischief may be produced by hasty and unguarded expressions. I think the House cannot be too cautious in this respect, and I implore its Members to abstain from any language of recrimination or exaggeration, or from raising expectations in the minds of the black population of the colonies, which must prove eventually beyond our power to realise. What is at this moment passing in every part of the world, must teach us the danger of tampering with such subjects; and I conjure the House to take care that we do not also give expectations of speedy benefits which it will not be in our power to confer, and raise expectations of advantage which will prove wholly illu­ sory.” We have no doubt that immediately on the re-assembling of Parlia­ ment, more of those inflammatory petitions, calumniating the Colonists, and praying for the immediate abolition of slavery, which have been so industriously framed by the Sectaries,—will be presented ; and we should not be surprised if Mr. Buxton were again to postpone his motion on the subject of slavery to a future period. It has, for many years, been the practice of the leaders of the Sectaries, to keep similar motions suspended over the heads of the Colonists, and the consequence has been exceedingly detrimental, inasmuch as it has produced irritation, kept them in a state of suspense, and in many instances prevented measures from being matured and brought forward, which would really have been a benefit to the Colonists and their dependents. Mr. Canning also had frequent cause to deprecate the clamour raised on this subject, as being very prejudicial to the cause of humanity. “ Such aid,” said he, “ rather adds to our incumbrances than increases our power. Resolutions at public meetings add to the enthusiasm of the

* Report o f the Assembly of Jamaica : Effects, of the late Colonial Policy, <§c., by- Alex. Barclay, Esq. Smith, Elder and Co., 1830. 22 Designs of the Anti-Colonists. enthusiastic, and threatening those at a distance, make obstinacy more obstinate, and apprehension more fearful.” We have no hope to see any change of this ungenerous policy, but it would be extremely desirable fhat some leading member should put an end to the embarrassment created by these manœuvres, by insisting upon Mr. B u x t o n ’s declaring the specific objects meant or intended by his mo­ tion, that persons acquainted with the subject may be prepared to discuss the matter fully and fairly, in all its bearings, so as to come to some bene­ ficial conclusion, instead of, as hitherto, leaving the question where they found it, thereby adding to the difficulties of the Colonist, without in the slightest degree benefitting the cause of humanity. We have frequently had occasion to lament the inconsistency and bad faith of the abolitionists in their disingenuous mode of pursuing their various attacks upon West India property,* and to notice the dangerous consequences to be apprehended from that political union which has been formed, amongst the Dissenters, under pretence of petitioning for the destruction of slavery, f We repeat that a more compactly organized body than the Methodists of the present day never existed, and that by the combinations which they have formed with the other sectaries, their leaders can now command petitions to Parliament, from every Meeting and Conventicle in the United Kingdom, on any political subject which they may please to dictate ! The loose and unstatesmanlike manner in which the artful and unjust clamour against the West Indians has been opposed by ministers, and the unguarded acts and expressions of those whose official duty it was to meet the question fairly and decisively in its various bearings, have, in some measure, given strength to this clamour, and afforded facilities to the formation of this union. We need only refer to past history to show that jthe political principles and exertions of these sects, are directly opposed to the constitution in church and state ; and it may safely be affirmed, that the whole spirit of their proceedings has a tendency to unsettle the authority of fixed establishments of every kind throughout the country, and so strongly to superinduce revolutionary principles, as to risk, if longer unopposed, the destruction of the whole status and condition of society ! We have never attempted to deny that many of the Wesleyan and other missionaries sent to the West Indies, were conscientious men, who have done much good ; but, latterly, especially in Jamaica, they have, generally speaking, shown that as a sect, they can no longer be trusted with the religious care and instruction of the negroes ; and consequently their ministry may now be considered at an end. If, therefore, the labours of the clergy of the Church of England, aided as they appear to be by the Moravian brethren,£ be insufficient,—why not give the Church of Scotland the necessary encouragement to extend the full

Î “ As fellow-labourers in the same vineyard,” says the Bishop of Jamaica, “ it is my duty to bear testimony to their discretion and zeal, their prudence and well regulated piety. The conduct of these gentlemen, and of all the other Missionaries of their church, Is unimpeachable, and an example to my own clergy, to teach ‘ with meekness and patience the engrafted word to the heathen.’ Their numbers are small. I heartily wish their establishment were more numerous and more efficient.” Designs of the Anti-Colonists. 23 benefit of its aid and assistance in forwarding “ the good work?” W e are well aware that many hundreds of pious and excellent members of that church would, if a moderate subsistence were secured to tliera, cor­ dially and zealously join their endeavours to those of the sister Church of England, to promote the cause of true religion abroad, although, as men of education and personal respectability, they do not consider it proper, under existing circumstances, to place themselves in a situation where they might have to contend for a livelihood against all those paltry artifices said to be used by certain of the missionaries. We hope ere long to see some measure of that kind promoted; and we feel assured that it would be hailed by the West Indians as the com­ mencement of a better system than any hitherto adopted ; and that it would produce a general feeling of security, and a wish for improvement, combining the exertion of all classes for the accomplishment of one desirable object.* Although a spirit of calm investigation, and a dispassionate considera­ tion of the true merits of the West India Question have, we trust, super­ seded, for the present, that persecuting zeal which lately threatened to involve our sugar colonies in anarchy and bloodshed, much is still required to be done before they can be put in a situation to yield permanently all those advantages to the mother country which they are capable of doing. The mistaken measures which have been pursued for many years past, in regard to them, and the manner in which they have been sacrificed to other interests, deserve, and we trust will receive, the most serious and attentive consideration. It will be found on a careful examination, that instead of deriving ad­ vantage from the regulations imposed by the mother country, the colonists have, independently of the enormous duties levied at home on their staple articles, been forced to pay annually very large sums of money to advance the interests of the United Kingdom and her other dependencies. That to support the fisheries of Great Britain, and those of her North American possessions, they have been compelled to pay, annually, a sum equal to about £140,000 or £150,000. That £80,000 to £90,000 may be taken as the enhancement in the cost of American supplies, paid (inde­ pendently of freights) to benefit, further, these British North American provinces : that the enhancement of freights, paid to support British ship­ ping, for sqpplies, the produce of the United States, brought circuitously, amounts to nearly £100,000 per annum :—that the restrictions on their

The following extract of a sermon, preached at Morant Bay, on the 31st of October last, exhibits in a clear manner the Christian spirit by which the clergy of the Church of Scotland, in Jamaica, are actuated. “ But while,” said one of these worthy pastors, “ I fondly eulogize our own simple form of worship, and our own church, it becomes me to speak with respect of the sister establishment. W e enter the vineyard together, not as dissenters from her, for we never belonged to her—we enter the vineyard hand in hand with her in emulation in the same great and illustrious cause; and, if the other bodies of professing Christians seek with zeal to difiuse their religious notions, it is surely our duty to be more anxious than they for the support and preaching of those forms which are associated with every recollection of early and ances­ tral reverence of those doctrines which have reared up the most virtuous and well-doing peasantry in Europe.” —Jamaica Royal Gazette.

And that the en­ hancement of freights paid to support British navigation employed in the European trade, amounts to nearly £450,000; whilst the Acts of Parliament which have been alleged to give free trade to these West India colonies, have, instead of benefitting the colonists, yielded a revenue of £75,000 only, whilst the custom-house establishment entailed upon them for the expense of collection, amounts, with incidents, to £68,000! — such are some of the disadvantages under which the suffering and grossly misrepresented colonists have been forced to labour to support the interests of the mother country. We have no wish whatever that the mother country and her other possessions should not derive the greatest possible advantage from her Sugar Colonies,— consistently with their preservation; but we object to the ungenerous practice of throwing the whole cost of promoting the other interest alluded to upon these Colonies, instead of by an equitable regula­ tion of duties and drawbacks, distributing the burden fairly over the whole nation. Some philosophers and political economists argue that we have been always acting wrong in having any colonies ; and they would still have us to get into what they call “ a natural state,” by abandoning the whole of those which we possess ! If it were possible to yield, for one moment, to the suggestions of such mischievous madmen, what would become of the shipping employed in these fixed channels of trade ?* What would be the fate of the various persons who now derive steady employment in the manufacture and preparation of the numerous articles required for their consumption ?— a consumption which, if wise measures were pursued to maintain the prosperity of the sugar colonies, might be much increased. Let all these matters be steadily looked into, and we shall find that by attempting to arrive at this “ natural state,” we should involve ourselves in such an extent of general calamity and unnatural misery and distress, as would tend to overturn all our fixed institutions, and to break up the whole state of society in the United Kingdom. We shall resume this subject hereafter.

WHITEHOUSE’S MISREPRESENTATIONS.

O ur readers are well aware that during the recent outcry which has been raised throughout the country against the West Indians, much

* If we may judge by an official document, recently published, the shipping interest is by no means in a flourishing state, and instead of destroying the present channels of trade, it would appear that other sources of employment are necessary. It appears by a Parliamentary return (No. 82), that the number of ships belonging to the Port of Lon­ don which were wholly mortgaged in 1821), are nearly double those which were in the same predicament in 1827 ' Whitehouse"s Misrepresentations. 25 stress has been laid, by the sectarian orators, upon the information com­ municated by Mr. Whitehouse, a Wesleyan Missionary in Jamaica. This person charged the Rev. Mr. Bridges, the rector, and Mr. Betty, a magistrate of the parish of St. Ann’s, with several acts of gross and wanton outrage against certain slaves and others— because they attended the Wesleyan chapel. These charges were made to the colonial depart­ ment of his Majesty’s Government, by the Wesleyan committee; and the Earl of Belmore was directed to investigate the truth or falsehood of the statements. The result of the investigation has now been made public.* Mr. Bridges seems to have completely exculpated himself from the malignant charges brought against him, and we have no doubt that, had not the death of Mr. Betty stopped further proceedings, the innocence of that gentle­ man would, also, have clearly appeared. As the accusations made by WThitehouse against Mr. Bridges appear, by the letter of the Attorney- General, to have been malicious and unfounded, it seems not unreasonable to conclude that those against Mr. Betty would have been found equally so. In the meantime these allegations have answered the purpose for which they were intended. They have been trumpetted forth at every Anti- Slavery Meeting in the kingdom as undoubted facts; and now, after the intended mischief is done, the particulars come forth in an authentic form I! We only consider it necessary to give the following extracts from the letters of Hugo James, Esq., the Attorney General, and from those of the accused parties, to show the animus by which Mr. Whitehouse and the Wesleyan Missionaries in Jamaica are guided:—

Extract o f a Letter from Hugo James, Esq., to Earl Belmore's Secre­ tary, dated Spanish Town, August 27, 1830. “ I take the liberty of recommending to his Excellency the Governor, to direct a communication to be made to Mr. Whitehouse, that if he be pre­ pared to substantiate the complaint which he has made against Mr. Betty, that his proper course to pursue is, to lay authentic documents, verified by oath, in the Crown-office, where proceedings will be adopted, consonant with the principles of British judicature, to obtain a full and impartial investigation of the matter, so as to ensure a legal conviction or acquittal. “ Asfar as the Rev. G. W . Bridges is implicated, it is justice that I should convey to his Excellency my humble opinion, that he has refuted the charges which tend to cast a reflection on his character as a clergyman, by the unjust insinuation of harshness and severity of the confinement of two of his domestics in the Rodney Hall Workhouse, which is designated by Mr. Whitehouse as the ‘ Seat of Darknesswhereas it appears that one is a criminal sentenced by the laws of the island to imprisonment for life, and the other is employed as a hired domestic by her own free will and consent. “ The alleged punishment of a slave not the property of Mr. Bridges is distinctly denied, and relates to an occurrence which took place several

Extract o f a Letter from the Rev. Geo. W. Bridges, to the Earl o f Belmore, dated St. Ann’s, July 25, 1830.

“ I am still proud to avow my conscientious opposition to the inter­ ference of these artful intruders, with which the island generally, and my own parish in particular, has lately become inundated. Need I assert that herein I have been solely influenced by a sincere conviction that their interference is uncalled for, their influence dangerous, and their doctrines utterly subversive of the peace and good order of this community? Tbe great body of our population has yet no fixed principles of religion at variance with the sound doctrincs or discipline of the Church of England, they therefore can require no such toleration of sectarianism as may tend to impress on their unoccupied minds false or even doubtful tenets, while our own extended establishment is desirous of, and now quite competent to, the union of them all in one fold. The experience of an uninterrupted period of thirteen years’ residence as rector of two extensive parishes in this colony has taught me, that the mercenary persons who arrive here to make a trade of religion amongst the lower orders, instead of uniting with us in the dissemination of the universal principles pf obedience and indus­ try, find it to their own advantage to render the slaves dissatisfied with the allotment pf Providence, by instilling into their minds gloomy senti­ ments which affect their happiness, while they facilitate the extortion of those resources which might be more usefully employed in providing for the comforts of their families, or preserved as the means of purchasing their freedom; and this mercenary purpose they effect more easily through the pernicious doctrine that the more severe the privations, and the greater the troubles, which the slaves may bring upon themselves in this life, the brighter are their prospects of the next. When I observe around me many who were contented, now poor, spiritless, and dejected, I cannot, as a Christian clergyman, behold the progress of such extensive mischief with­ out employing my humble but zealous endeavours to save my flock from wholesale misery; but I have never controlled their religious feeling by unfair means; my house isopen to family prayers every evening, but [ haye confined my interference to inviting them there, and to the offer of my best advice; I have not gone into corners to tamper with any, an unfair advantage which the sectarians take over the clergy, but what I have thought it necessary to say has been delivered from my own pulpit in the parish church. “ In reference to that part of your Lordship’s letter alluding to an in­ terchange of communication with Mr. Whitehouse, I beg leave to state that I can never submit to such a degradation. My desire has been to live at peace with all people, whatever their religious persuasion; and I have more than once endeavoured to conciliate the sectarian ministers in my parish to a joint effort in the cpmmon cause of Christiauity ; but such Whitehouse's Misrepresentations. 27 union would interfere with their mercenary monopoly, and therefore 1 have been uniformly disappointed and wantonly interfered with, persecuted by artful malevolence and falsehood, and my congregation drawn from me by their seductive artifices. It has thus become my duty, as rector of this extensive parish, to use every effort to recall my alienated flock to the church; and although, from sad experience, I have been mode aware how much my own interest and peace have been sacrificed by so openly ex­ posing myself to artful and prevailing misrepresentation, I find support in a just sense of that duty which is required of me as a minister of the Established Church.'’

Copy o f a Letter from James Betty, Esq., to the Same, dated St. Aim's, July 5, 1830.

“ M y L ord , St. Ann’s, 5th July, 1830. “ 1 have had the honour to receive, through the channel of your Lord­ ship’s Secretary, a copy of a dispatch from Sir George Murray, together with a representation from an itinerant preacher, that, being a magistrate of St. Ann, I had treated with improper severity a slave under my charge, and who belongs to the fraternity over which Mr. Whitehouse presides. “ In the first place, I solemnly deny ever having exercised any autho­ rity over a slave under my charge, in my character as a magistrate. Had any case occurred which called for the interference of the civil power, it is reasonable to suppose (and it requires all the suspicion and bad feeling of a sectarian to insinuate to the contrary) that I should have appealed to some other magistrate. Whenever I have found it necessary to punish slaves under my charge, I have done so according to the provisions of the Slave Code. This charge seems to have acquired greater importance from my having presumed to chastise a slave who holds some official situation under Mr. Whitehouse; I was certainly not aware that these preachers possessed any power to transfer to the tabernacle the obedience which slaves owe to their masters; but if this be the case, it would be only fair that some public notice should be given, so that persons in ignorance, like myself, may be able te avoid interfering with such hallowed characters. Hitherto slaves, when they had suffered any grievance from their overseers or others, have appealed to their master or his representative, and fVom thence had a further appeal to the magistracy, and their complaints were often carried to the Governor. But now there appears an attempt to inter­ pose a new authority, superseding all others, and one of a most mischiev­ ous tendency; when, instead of negro complaints receiving a sober and dispassionate consideration, they are to be disposed of according to the caprice of some low ill-disposed fanatic. If such doctrine be not put down, there is an end of that control without which slavery cannot exist. The statement of Mr. Whitehouse is such a compound of the grossest falsehood and misrepresentation, mixed up with a very sbnder portion of truth, that it is difficult to separate the ingredients. I certainly did confine Henry Williams in the St. Thomas in the Vale workhouse, for disobe­ dience of my orders, in fact openly setting me at defiance before the rest of the slaves; I had an undoubted right to do so; and I do not consider 28 Whitehouse s Misrepresentations. myself responsible for that act. That the slave became sick there, and that I removed him, is equally certain ; and had he died in confinement, these canting hypocrites would have reproached me with having been the cause of his death, although an able medical person regularly attends the establishment; and they would have done so with the same justice with which Mr. Whitehouse has cast a foul aspersion upon the parish of St. Ann, stating that a slave had died in the workhouse from excess of punish­ ment. That is a charge from which it belongs the parochial authorities to exonerate themselves. “ Referring to the melancholy picture which Mr. Whitehouse has drawn of the St. Thomas in the Vale workhouse, I preferred that place of confinement because I know that it is under very judicious manage­ ment, that proper and sufficient food is supplied, and, whether the prisoner be poor or rich, they have nothing but the prison allowance; whilst at St. Ann’s Bay the discipline is more relaxed; the friends and acquaint­ ances of the prisoners have access to them, and, what is still more objectionable, they are exposed to the mischievous councils of canting Methodists. I am sorry to speak with harshness of any set of men, and until the present time I have never come into contact with sectarianism ; but twenty-three years’ experience, and the visible alteration in the manners and habits of the slaves within the last ten years, teach me that these dissenting preachers will inevitably bring the country to ruin ; especially if their most improbable calumnies are countenanced by the highest authorities in the State. “ As far as my name is implicated with Mr. Whitehouse, I can appeal with confidence to all those who have witnessed my conduct from the time of my arrival in the island, whether they have ever known an instance of my having treated either my own slaves, or those of others under my charge, with harshness or severity. It is with great reluctance that I am induced to speak of myself; but were [ disposed to enter into particulars, I could easily prove that I never was harsh or severe with the slaves under my charge; one convincing instance to the contrary is, that the slaves of every property under my management have increased in number. This is seen by any one who wishes a reference to the public records of the parish. I’ll instance the property I have resided on for twenty-one years, as the most proper, (Cressant Park): when I first took charge of it as overseer, the number of slaves was eighty-nine; shortly after the proprietor sold three and removed five, for improper conduct, and the number at the present time is one hundred and two, and which increase is without any accession by purchase or transfer. “ Conscious that I have done nothing deserving reproach, I am ready to meet any charge which may be preferred against me in a court of justice, where my actions will be investigated before a legal tribunal of twelve honest men; but with all the deference I feel for the Colonial-office, T never will consent to answer interrogatories. “ I beg leave, my Lord, to add, in allusion to that part of Sir George Murray’s despatch which anticipates the possibility of some further reference to Mr. Whitehouse, that I will enter into no controversy with that man. I am perfectly indifferent to his assertions or denials; and Free Labour. 29 I humbly hope that your Lordship will be pleased to consider this letter as the only answer I feel myself called upon to make to Sir George Murray’s despatch. “ I have the honour to be, &c. &c, “ To the Right Hon. the Earl o f Belmore, “ Sfa ^c* (Signed) James Betty.”

FREE LABOUR.

W e have repeatedly exhibited proofs of the total failure of every attempt which has hitherto been made to establish the cultivation of sugar, or other tropical produce, by free negroes; and the folly and absurdity of persevering in schemes suggested by “ zeal without knowledge,” for the introduction of systems of free labour. Another instance of the folly of such attempts, and of the mischievous consequences of Government’s interference, has recently been exhibited in a new quarter of the world, namely— Mauritius. The failure of this meritorious experiment seems, owing to the arbitrary interposition of the local Government, to have involved the planters of Mauritius in a heavy loss, and will no doubt have added considerably to those feelings of disgust and dissatisfaction which are so strongly mani­ fested in the memorials which they have addressed to their governor, Sir Charles Colville. We are sorry to hear it reported that an insur­ rection of the negroes, attended with bloodshed, has taken place there; and although the report has come through a suspicious channel, we should not be surprised, considering the state of irritation prevalent in that island, if the report should prove but too true. We copy the following statement, which we have reason to believe to have been written by a person of respectability and local knowledge, from the Asiatic Journal of last month ;—

“ P r o c e e d i n g s a t M a u r i t i u s .

“ S o m e time ago the planters in the island o f Mauritius, in consequence o f the great difficulty experienced in procuring labourers on their estates, and anxious, if possible, to introduce some system independent o f slave-cultiva- tion, formed an association for the purpose o f importing free labourers into the island. It occurred to them, that those countries already overstocked with population, would most readily afford them supplies; and, accordingly, arrangements were set on foot, in conjunction with several mercantile houses having the command o f ships, to procure the transportation o f labourers from India and the Malay islands. A t the same time, application was made pri­ vately, by the principal planters and merchants, to the local government, to countenance the measure; and the result o f their application was a positive assurance from the governor, that the scheme met with his entire approbation, and would receive his cordial support. 30 Free Labour. “ Several vessels were immediately freighted to Singapore and Madras; and the consequence was, that a great number o f Chinese and Malabar free labourers offered their services, and were hired for periods varying from three to five years. The rate o f wages asked was considerably lower than what prevailed in the Mauritius; but, at the same time, proportionably higher than what those foreigners obtained in their own countiy. Notwithstanding, how­ ever, the cheapness o f the rate o f wages, the result o f the transaction did not prove so profitable to the Mauritius planters as was originally expected. This was perhaps to be expected on the first trial o f a system so novel and adventurous o f its kind; but in which, as its design was so concordant with the views o f the British Legislature respecting the slave-trade, the Mauritius planters calculated on the certain and promised co-operation o f the govern­ ment in the colony. The charge o f transporting those people came to about £ 5 a-head; which, along with the other incidental unforeseen expenses, very nearly counterbalanced the cheapness o f the wages for which they had been hired. “ A t length, after very considerable difficulty, about 1,500 free labourers were landed at Port Louis during the last half o f the year 1829; but, to the sur­ prise and mortification o f the planters, who, in adopting the scheme originally, had been much influenced by the promised support of the colonial govern­ ment, the moment that those people came ashore, the authorities interfered between them and their employers, and refused to allow them to proceed to the plantations until security was found by their masters, at the rate o f £ 2 5 a-head, for the good and peaceable behaviour o f those foreigners during the Whole period o f their future residence in the island. This most arbitrary and unprecedented step on the part of the government, was adopted without any law being passed on the subject, and seemed to be dictated by feelings of the most rancorous kind towards the planters. The chief commissary o f police (who, it may be observed, had shortly before been paymaster o f a regiment in the garrison) received orders to summon the planters to his office, where the above requisition was announced to them. The planters in vain objected and humbly represented the hardship as Well as illegality o f such a proceeding. The government would listen to no alternative. The official order must be pBremptorily obeyed; and as in our unfortunate colony, where no legislative assembly exists, there were no available means o f appeal and redress, the planters at length found themselves compelled, though with the greatest possible inconvenience, to lodge the security required, amounting to no less a sura than £37,500 sterling. “ After the planters had thus obeyed the wishes o f the government, the Chinese and Malabar labourers were ultimately allowed to repair to the estates o f their respective employers. But it was not long before the ill-conse- quences o f the measures o f government began to appear. These people soon became discontented with their situation, though two months’ wages were given to them in advance,—being instigated by the bad advice o f some o f their own countrymen, previously settled in the island as servants, shopkeepers, &c. They told them that they were great fools to labour at so low a rate o f wages ; that every other class o f workmen, even the slaves, received more than they did; that they ought at once to strike, desert from their employers, and stand out till better wages were offered them ; and that they need not fear the inter­ position o f legal authority to make them return to their service, as the govern­ ment had already shewn an inclination to favour them, and even to visit their delinquencies, not upon them, but upon their employers. “ Unfortnnately for all parties, these ignorant creatures were swayed by the instigations thus administered to them; and many, at length, though at first only a few, deserted from the plantations on which they were settled. These their employers immediately sought to reclaim by persuasion and solicitation; but finding them obstinate, and that the contagion was spreading, the planters were obliged to denounce them at the police-office as runaways, and apply formally to that department to compel them to fulfil their agreement, and to Free Labour. 31 serve out the full period o f labour which had been stipulated. What was the astonishment o f the planters when, in answer to their application, they were informed by the chief commissary o f police, the same creature of the govern­ ment who had already laid upon the planters the heavy hand o f his power, that those Chinese and Indians, being freemen, had a right to leave their service if they pleased, and that government could not interfere to enforce the fulfilment o f their engagement! On receiving this intimation, what other idea could the planters entertain o f the conduct o f the government, or the character o f its chosen servants, but that the perfidy and bad faith o f the one was only equalled by the ignorance and servility o f the other; that there seemed to be a combination o f all the colonial departments over which government influ. ence could spread itself, to bring ruin on the unfortunate planters ? If, therefore, after their endeavours to fulfil the wishes o f the British Legislature, in seeking to eradicate slavery from the colony by the introduction of free labour, and more especially after the fair promises o f encouragement and co-operation tendered to them by the local government, the planters felt disappointed, and grieved, and irritated, at the conduct o f the colonial autho­ rities, what must have been their indignation, when they found, that in the very same department to which they had applied in vain for redress, those runaway workmen, now destitute and starving, were receiving every possible protection, being supplied daily with one pound and a-half of rice for each man, with plenty of fuel to cook it; and. in this manner, directly befriended by the government in their unlawful dereliction o f their service ! “ Intelligence o f these circumstances soon spread throughout the island, and the disastrous effects were such as might easily have been foreseen. All the plantations, to which the news had reached, were immediately abandoned by their Indian cultivators, who resorted in crowds to the police-office in Port Louis, where they met with the same protection and relief as had been already so liberally bestowed on their countrymen. The bounty o f the government even went so far as to grant them permission to build huts in the neighbourhood o f the town, on a piece o f ground belonging to the harbour­ master, and adjoining to his villa. In an incredibly short time, between five and six hundred o f these runaways had encamped on this chosen spot, living there under the immediate auspices o f the government, setting at defiance and scorning every attempt on the part of the planters to force them to return to their stipulated service. But the planters were not the only individuals doomed to suffer from the unwarrantable protection thus given to these Indian miscreants. Loosed from all control, and even, as it seemed to them, encouraged by government in their delinquency, they soon turned their thoughts to every sort of aggression. They began to infest the whole neighbourhood, — prowling about for plunder,—robbing poultry-yards, stealing sheep, calves, and pigs,— attacking black servants on the highways. In vain did those who suffered from these depredations endeavour to put a stop to the lawless violence o f these semi-savages. Applications were repeatedly made for the assistance o f the police: no complaints were attended to by the dependants of government. “ After this most deplorable state o f things had continued for some time, a government notice appeared in the official gazette, calling on the respective planters who had employed those labourers, to shew cause, to his Excellency the Governor’ s satisfaction, why they should not now be sent back to their native country, and the rations given them by the police paid for,— all at the expense o f these employers! Some o f the planters, rather more bold than the rest, ventured humbly to represent, in written memorials to the governor, that if he had allowed the existing laws to be enforced against the first run­ aways, and obliged them to adhere to their engagements with their several masters, the rest would have been deterred from following their example; and, moreover, that it would be imposing a most intolerable hardship on the planters, if, in addition to the positive injury already inflicted on them by being deprived o f their workmen, they were now to be saddled with the 32 Free Labour. expense of maintaining them after they had deserted, and of transporting them back to their own country. To this temperate and legitimate address his Excellency the Governor of the Mauritius did not deign to make any reply. What reply, indeed, would it have been possible to make, in defence of the conduct of the government? Immediately after, a peremptory order was issued to the chief commissary of police, to have all the Indian labourers embarked forthwith! The order was of course instantly obeyed. Three vessels were got ready for the purpose. The tumultuous host of these lawless vagrants, who seemed to glory in the impunity with which they had perpetrated so much mischief, embarked with banners flying, and such shouts of triumph, as at first spread consternation through the whole town. At length, the whole party were got on board, and immediately sailed, no doubt well satis­ fied with their trip to the Mauritius at the expense of the planters, and exulting in the injuries occasioned by their visit. The government advocate has since received instructions to institute legal proceedings against nineteen of the principal planters, in order to extort from them payment of the expenses incurred in the maintenance and re-conveyance of these Indians. On the success of this prosecution, which is only intended as preliminary to future proceedings, will depend the adoption of similar measures against the rest of the planters. The prosecution has not yet been concluded, but no one doubts what will be the issue of the trial; for the judges here******. “ Thus it is that the humane attempt on the part of the Mauritius planters to &econd the efforts of the mother country, at the risk of their own interests, in abolishing or lessening the evils of negro slavery, has been rendered abortive by the caprice of the colonial government. We are not now possessed of any legislative assembly, which might exercise a salutary control over the wanton­ ness of arbitrary power; we are, therefore, compelled to submit patiently, and to endure, as we best can, the weight of the iron yoke that crushes us. But we look forward soon to the award of justice and redress, which a British Parliament never refuses to the oppressed.”

London : Printed by Henry Baylis, Johnson’s-court, Fleet-street. REPORT.

A n o t h e r year having performed its hasty round, the Comr mittee o f the Baptist Missionary Society proceed to lay before their friends and constituents, a brief statement of the principal events which have occurred, in relation to the Society, during that period. A faithful narratiye of those facts, compressed within the scanty limits of a Report, may present nothing to excite surprise and astonishment; but if it convince candid and intelligent Christians that the operations of the Society, do, in some humble measure, serve to extend the boundaries of that kingdom which cometh not with observation, ample ground will be laid for renewed thanksgivings to God, and we shall not plead in vain, with those who love the Saviour, for persevering and effectual support.

Commencing as usual, with the subordinate stations in the province of Bengal, we learn, from accounts very recently arrived from Serampore, that at Dinagepore, one of the first places visited by the gospel, the prospect continues to be highly pleasing. Mr. F e r n a n d e z , the aged pastor, assisted by the native preacher, N i d h i r a m , employs every evening of the week, besides maintaining the regular services of the sabbath, in giving religious instruction to his flock; and the benefits are so apparent as to attract the notice and commendation of those who have no connexion with the Missionary cause. A whole family, consisting of eight persons, have lately thrown off caste at this station; seven members have been added to the church, and five more were candidates for the same privilege. The hands of Mr. L e o n a r d , at Dacca, have lately been strengthened by the accession of Mr. D’C r u z from Seram­ pore. Mrs. P e a c o c k , also, the widow of our deceased Mis­ sionary, has gone thither to take charge of the female schools. B 10

Several interviews have been held by our friends at this sta­ tion with the Suttya Gooroos, a singular sect of Hindoos, who have renounced idols, and profess to approve Christianity, of which through the medium of the Scriptures in their own language, they have acquired considerable knowledge. While these have excited some hope, Mr. L e o n a r d has been en­ couraged in his exertions for the young, by pleasing evidence that two of his pupils have died in the faith of Christ. In Jessore, amidst much prejudice and many discourage­ ments, Mr. T h o m a s , and six natives under his direction, have continued to proclaim the good news of salvation. In this district four schools have lately been erected and endowed by the resident English gentlemen and native land-holders, which are to be supplied with masters from the college at Serampore. Two or three persons have been added to the church at Delhi, under the care of Mr. Thom pson, who continues to employ much of his time in itinerating through a wide extent of country, distributing tracts, and conversing about the gos­ pel. These exertions have at least the effect of exciting attention to the great truths of revelation; and the statement made by a respectable native for himself, may be regarded as descriptive of a numerous class of his countrymen, thus par­ tially informed. “ I say truly,” said he to Mr. Thompson, “ I have a love for the things contained in your books; but I have little faith yet; when I have more faith I will say more to you.” AX Allahabad, the prospect appears to be brightening: a church has been formed, consisting of nine members, among whom are two or three pious Europeans. Five Hindoo youth are reading the New Testament with Mr. M ack in tosh ; who, besides his labours at home, has had op­ portunities of diffusing the gospel very widely at the fairs and large assemblies annually held in that part of the country. Mr. Richards, at Futtyghur, has great facilities for dispers­ ing the Scriptures, though he has been prevented by illness from exerting himself so actively as he could desire. From Benares, the head quarters of Brahminical superstition, the intelligence is pleasing. “ The work of the Lord,” writes Mr, Sm ith, in April 1826, “ is prospering here. I find the 11 heathen very attentive to the gospel; last month I baptized Mr. S . a serious young man, and four persons gave in their names as candidates for the ordinance; a Heathen, a Mussulman, and two Roman Catholics. The good people here, (referring to Missionary brethren, from other Societies), all live in union, which is a great blessing. A t the assemblies of the heathen, we all meet together, reading, singing, speaking, and giving* away books to those who apply for them, or are able to read them.” Voluntary drownings, he remarks elsewhere, are less frequent than formerly ; and it should appear, from an anec­ dote in Mr. S m it h ’ s journal, that even in this holy city, and among Brahmins too, idols are falling into disrepute. “ I asked a Brahmin,” says he, “ why they took no notice pf some stone gods lying under a wall. W e worshipped them several years,” answered the Brahmin, “ but not deriving any benefit, we laid them aside, knowing they are but stones, and are not able to do good or evil.” Mr. W i l l i a m C a r e y , who, for fourteen years, has been stationed at Cutwa, laments that although his hearers are often deeply affected under the word, instances of conversion are few; still, those who have been united in church fellowship afford him pleasure by their general steadiness and consistency. Mrs. C a r e y has endeavoured to revive the female school at this station, but hitherto can procure none but the children of native Christians— the prejudices of the heathen, stronger in this distant part of the province than in Calcutta and its en­ virons, not allowing them to send their daughters. That part of the church, formerly under Mr. C a r e y ’s care, situate in the district of Beerbhoom, is now supplied by Mr. W i l l i a m ­ s o n , from Serampore. In reference to the station just mentioned, from which, for so many years, the word of God has sounded forth into all the region round about, more ample information than we can supply will probably be communicated, in person, at this anni­ versary by one of our esteemed brethren (Dr. M a r s h m a n ), who has long taken a very active share in its concerns. Death has again been commissioned to lessen the number of labourers here: K o m u l , a native preacher, having died in July, and Mr. A l b r e c h t who, in 1824, accompanied Mr. J o h n 12

M a r s h m a n to India, being removed within three months afterwards. O f K o m u l , no particulars have been received ; but in Mr. A l b r e c h t our brethren have lost a coadjutor of much promise. H e was educated at the Missionary Seminary at Basle, under the pious Dr. B l u m h a r d t , and from the continent of Europe, as well as from his more recent con­ nexions in India, we have received high testimonies to his literary attainments and eminent piety. That instruments, apparently so well adapted for the great work of evangelizing the world, should be scarcely allowed to commence their operations, ere they are summoned to discontinue them for ever, is a mystery too deep for us to fathom. But this also is à part of his ways, who is excellent in counsel, as well as mighty in work. Our brethren at Serampore report that thé stations more immediately in connexion with themselves have, from the be- ginning of 1825, been placed under the superintendence of the college. They acknowledge, in one of their recent publications, the assistance rendered in 1824, on account of these stations, from the funds of the Society, to the amount o f £1000 ; since which a second donation o f similar value has been forwarded on the same account. A t Calcutta, the Church in the Lai Bazar, hitherto under the care o f the Serampore brethren, have with the full con­ currence of their former pastors, invited Mr. R o b in s o n , who, it was stated in our last Report, had arrived there from Su­ matra, to assume the charge over them. H e has accepted the invitation, and there is reason to hope this step will be followed by a revival of religion among them. To our venerable friend, Dr. C a r e y , this arrangement appears to have been particu­ larly desirable, as it leaves him more at liberty to prosecute those very important biblical labours to which his life has been devoted ; arid which, notwithstanding his advanced age, he is enabled to pursue with vigour and success.; The last com­ munication received from him, dated in December, 1825, gives a cheering account of his continued health; and in the same letter he states his view of Missionary laboursin general, by saying, “ I believe the work o f God is considerably on the increase.” 13

Our junior brethren in Calcutta have still had to drink of the cup o f affliction. In consequence o f illness, By which his exertions had long been impeded, one of their number, Mr. E u s t a c e C a r e y , has revisited his native land, and appears among us this day. May it please God to restore and strengthen him for much service in years to come ! But to all his former associates in Bengal he never can return. One of the little band, Mr. L a w s o N, closed his earthly career in October last, exemplifying in death the firm supporfs and joyful triumphs of that Gospel he had long dispensed with faithfulness and affection to others. Men of piety in Calcutta, of every deno­ mination, felt that in him they had lost a brother and a friend ; while an affectionate widow and numerous family have still deeper reason to mourn the painful stroke. From the Father of mercies may they receive all the consolation their circum­ stances demand ! While the Providence of God is thus diminishing our Missionary strength in Calcutta, and we are called upon to use our utmost exertions to send help to our brethren, it is gratifying to find that some on the spot are raised up to unite with them in their labours. The adoption of Mr. K i r k p a ­ t r i c k as a Missionary was mentioned in our last Report ; since which, a Mr. F e n w i c k , who resides at Chinsurah, and has long approved himself a man o f Christian zeal, has been engaged, on behalf of the Society, to render his assistance in itinerating among the heathen. H e speaks with fluency the Bengalee and Hindosthanee, and his journals prove that he possesses the far higher qualifications of an enlightened un­ derstanding and devotional spirit. Several additions have been made to thé Church in the Circular Road during the last ÿear, among whom were two Roman Catholics, led to embrace the Gospel by the instrumentality o f native preachers ! Anothei individual, named S u k h a r e e , o f whom an account has already appeared in the Missionary Herald, though he had never been admitted into the Church, afforded good reason to hope that he expired in the faith ; while, among the youth educated in the Benevolent Institution, the progress of Divine Truth is very encouraging. At Doorgapore, a number of poor natives, of the lowest class, whose conduct had always been so riotous 14

and disorderly as greatly to annoy the Missionaries resident there, have *come forward, of their own accordi to request that a service might be held once a week for their accommodation, and have even offered, out of their poverty, to defray the expense of lighting the chapel on the evenings when they as­ semble. Incidents o f this kind tend to revive and cheer the spirits of a Missionary, when appalled and distressed by the awful mass of ignorance and of guilt surrounding him on every side ; while the experience of each revolving year serves more deeply to implant the conviction that nothing short of a more abundant effusion of the Holy Spirit from on high, will render Missionary labours generally successful, and fulfil those hopes which Christian benevolence delights to cherish. Respecting the Female Schools, such repeated and particular information has been given through the usual channel, that it is only necessary to state in general terms that their progress is highly satisfactory and encouraging. W e may add, as a proof of the extent to which the native mind has been roused to seek information, and of the means which are at work to supply it, that in the course of the last year no less than 30 new publications, on various subjects, issued from the native Bengalee press ; of which it is computed that 1000 copies on the average were printed. A t Digah, J h u r r e e l a l , one of the schoolmasters em­ ployed under the direction of Mrs. R o w e , has renounced caste, and desires baptism. His wife and family, consisting of five females, regularly attend to hear the Scriptures read. In the Schools at this station 164 boys are now receiving in­ struction ; and no less than 120 girls have enjoyed similar advantages, several of whom have appeared to be the subjects of a saving change. The number of Schools might easily be enlarged, if adequate means were provided, since prejudice has so far given way, that the native landholders come forward to solicit them. Mr. M o o r e has not removed to Digah, as was expected last year, but Mr. B u r t o n has gone thither, having been under the painful necessity of quitting Sebolga. The favorable anticipations in our last Report respecting the station at Monghyr, have been fully realized. To the 15 small church under the care o f Mr. L e s l i e , nine persons have been added, some of whom formed striking instances of the power of divine grace in renewing those who seemed the least likely to yield to its influence. Thirteen schools are now in operation here, the number having been lately increased at the request of Mahommedan parents, who now permit their children to read those Christian books, the use of which heretofore was an effectual bar to their entering the schools. An alteration equally favorable has taken place in the general conduct o f the native population. Instead of vulgar abuse, the brethren who itinerate among them, are heard with serious attention ; so that, under the divine blessing, we may trust the word of God, at Monghyr, and its neighbourhood, will still grow and prevail. W ar, with all its attendant evils, has been permitted to ravage the district of Chittagong, and to disperse the nume­ rous church, formed there among the Mugs. Still they have retained their attachment to the means of grace; and since the conclusion of peace between the Burmese and our Indian government, these poor people, who were originally refugees from the neighbouring province of Arracan, now ceded to the British, have returned thither in a body, with their pastor at their head. Thus, in a most unexpected way, a new and easy access is obtained into the Burman empire; and from the relative position of that country to China, it seems not at all improbable that ere long the extensive frontier of that vast and populous region, may be laid open to the Gospel. Respecting our American brethren in Burmah, Mr. J u d - s o n and Dr. P r i c e , whose situation has long been a matter of painful uncertainty, authentic intelligence may now be daily expected. From Ceylon, additions are reported, both to the church in Colombo, under the care of Mr. C h a t e r , and to that at Hanwell, over which Mr. S i e r s presides. The schools be­ longing to the Mission, have fluctuated much from sickness and other causes. Mr. C h a t e r has published a free trans­ lation of Alleine’s Alarm, in the Portuguese language ; and has been appointed Secretary to a Religious Tract Society re- 16 cently formed in Colombo. It is pleasing- to add that much harmony appears to prevail among the various classes of Christians engaged in Missionary Service in Ceylon. After a long series o f diligent exertions among the Javanese, attended with little apparent benefit, Mr, B r u c k n e r has been driven from his post on the eastern side of the island, by a formidable insurrection o f the natives against their Dutch masters. H e has repaired, for the present, to Batavia, where he will be able most efficiently to superintend the printing of the New Testament into the Javanese language, for which purpose a lithographic press was sent thither some time ago. Mr. D i e r i n g , who was baptised at Batavia, by Mr. R o b in ­ s o n , and has been, in various ways, useful to the Missionary cause in that city, was removed, after a short illness, in Octo­ ber last. It was intimated, in our last Report, that the cession o f Sumatra to the Dutch government would probably have an important influence on our various Missionary stations in that island; and the events which have sirfee occurred, leave little ground for hope that our brethren can remain there with any prospect of advantage. In the north, such success has at­ tended the warlike operations of a set of insurgent reformers, called Padries, that Mr. B u r t o n , with his family, and the females of the Orphan Institution under Mrs. B u r t o n ’s care, were obliged, from regard to personal safety, to leave Sebolga in July last, and they reached Calcutta, after a perilous voyage, in the following month. The timid Bataks, among whom he had been stationed, had all determined to becom,e Mussulmuns, when their invaders took possession of their country. A t the period o f his quitting Sebolga, Mr. B u r t o n was engaged in compiling a ‘Dictionary, English, Malay, and Batak, having previously completed bis translation of the Gospel o f St. John. Whether it may, in some future day, be permitted him to resume his exertions on behalf of this portion o f the heathen world, it is not for us to determine. W e have reason for thankfulness, that life and health have been con­ tinued, and that a sphere has opened before him, on British territory, as we have before stated, under the head pf Digah, 17

where such obstacles as he has hitherto had to encounter are not likely to recur.

Padang being the seat of European power, Mr. E v a n s has not been exposed to the same dangers as Mr. B u r t o n . By the members of Government he has been treated with much personal respect; and they have shown themselves friendly to the work of education: but, in compliance with the obstinate prejudices of the natives, such restrictions have been laid upon the higher and nobler object o f a Christian Mis­ sionary— the direct promulgation of the gospel— that the Committee have deemed it incumbent on them to direct Mr. E v a n s also to proceed to Bengal, and unite with his brethren in cultivating that more promising field. Mr. W ard remains for the present, in Bencoolen, where he superintends the schools formed under the enlightened administration o f Sir Stamford Raffles, and has opportunities of circulating the tracts and other scriptural publications compiled in Malay, by Mr. Robinson.

WEST INDIES. Our Mission in Jamaica has been distinguished by the same general features as in former years. The most encou­ raging proofs have been afforded of a divine blessing; while these have been combined with afflictions and bereavements emphatically reminding us that our confidence must never be placed in an arm of flesh, but in Him who employs subordinate instruments, or lays them aside, according to his will. Mr. C o u l t a r t has continued to receive many additions to the church at Kingston over which he presides; and though instances too frequently occur o f those who, after professing the name of Christ, turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them, yet the great majority stand fast. On the first Sabr bath in the present year, 2000 communicants met in his spacious chapel to partake of the supper o f the Lord. Upwards of sixty had joined the Church a few days before; and the accounts given, by the candidates, on such occasions, o f the operations of divine truth upon their hearts, are often such as to awaken the liveliest sentiments of gratitude and joy. The daily school, under the judicious management of Mr. K n j b b , has c greatly increased; besides which, there is a Sunday school oi 200 children, who are taught by the most respectable mem­ bers of the Church and congregation. But amidst this ex­ tensive sphere of usefulness, Mr. C o u l t a r t has been called to sustain much affliction. The health of Mrs. C o u l t a r t has again gradually declined, and after having tried every ex­ pedient which could be adopted on the island, she has been compelled to return to this country. Mr. C o u l t a r t still remains at his station, but his continuance there, under such circumstances, must of course be uncertain. The Church and congregation, under the care of Mr. T in - SON, are also in a prosperous state, though the situation of the Chapel is less favourable for a large attendance than M rt C o u l t a r t ’s . A t Spanish Town, we are gratified to state, the impedi­ ments mentioned in our last Report, have been removed. W hen His Majesty’s Government were informed of the de­ mand made on Mr. P h il ip p o for military service, immediate directions were sent out for his exemption ; and we trust that this proof of liberal attention to Christian Missionaries in our colonies may prevent the recurrence of such requisitions in future. Several leading individuals in the town have encou­ raged Mr. P h il ip p o in his labours, and he is now engaged in the erection of a more commodious place of worship to re­ ceive his increasing congregation. Sixty persons were added to his Church a few months since, and thirty more were bap­ tized at Old Harbour. The school, under the immediate superintendence of Mr. P h il ip p o , contains 140 pupils, o f whom 30 are from Jewish families; and he has formed also a large institution on the Lancasterian plan, the care of which principally devolves upon himself. The bare enumeration of these engagements will be enough to show how urgently help is required at this station; and we trust that, by this time, it is afforded, Mr. B a y l i s , one of the last Missionaries who sailed for Jamaica, having been sent out with that view. The new station at Anotta B ay has proved a scene of mournful bereavement. The prospects there were decidedly pleasing; the Church had increased from forty to upwards of one hundred members; the school for negro children was well attended, and promised to be highly beneficial; when 19

sickness, which during the last season, has been unusually prevalent in Jamaica, was permitted to visit the dwelling of our Missionary there, Mr. P h il l ip s , and to hurry both him­ self and his affectionate partner to the silent grave! Their orphan child has since arrived in England, and Mr. and Mrs. F lood have proceeded to occupy the post thus rendered vacant. They will not, however, reside on the B ay; but at the premises, belonging to the Society, at Mount Charles; a spot which is said to be more healthy than the Bay. It is intended that Mr. Flood shall include both places in the sphere o f his labours. The ministry of Mr. B u r c h e l l has been honoured with much success, both at Montego Bay and Crooked Spring; and such is the eagerness of the negroes to hear the word, that many have travelled repeatedly ten, fifteen, or twenty miles for that purpose; and all in vain, the place of worship being too small to admit them. Such was the pressure, on one occasion, that the building was seriously endangered, and the congregation had to secure their safety by a precipitate flight. A t other towns in the neighbourhood, a similar desire appears to prevail. Urgent applications have been made to Mr. B u r c h e l l to visit them, or procure them a Missionary. Nor have these solicitations been confined to the negroes. A proprietor resident in the neighbourhood, having purchased an estate in the parish of Westmorland, surrounded by many thousand slaves without any religious instruction, has liberally proposed to give a spot of land for a Missionary station, pro­ vided the Society will occupy it for that purpose. Thus the fields, in this part of the island, seem white unto harvest; but here, also, God in his Providence has seen fit to interpose a check, though we trust but a temporary one. The health of Mr. B u r c h e l l has proved unequal to his abundant labours, and after being repeatedly laid aside, he was directed to take a voyage as the only means of preserving his life. A most favourable opportunity offering at the time, he prudently em­ braced it; and arrived a few days since, having found the voyage very beneficial. A t Belize, in the Bay of Honduras, Mr. B o u rn has con­ tinued, notwithstanding frequent indisposition, to prosecute the great and important objects of his Mission. In these, he de- 20 rives much assistance from one of his friends, a man o f colour, who is acquainted with the French and Spanish languages, as well as the Indian spoken on the coast, and is diligently em­ ployed in preaching and holding prayer meetings among the people in different parts o f the neighbourhood. The number o f communicants has increased from four to twelve, and the attendance at the Chapel is good. A correspondence has been kept up, through the medium of our esteemed friend, the Rev. W . H . A n g a s, with Mr. S c h l a t t e r , who still remains among the Nogay Tartars, near the sea o f Azof. It seems probable that the obstacles which have hitherto prevented his appearing more publicly in the character of a Christian Missionary may soon be removed ; and that he may devote himself entirely to the work of God, for which he appears to be so eminently qualified.

Having thus hastily sketched the principal facts o f which we have had information from abroad, we proceed, in a few words, to specify what .has been done at home. The Committee have had the pleasure of sending help, which has been long needed, both to the East and W est Indies; Messrs. T hom as and P e a r c e , with their wives, having just embarked for Calcutta, and Mr. and Mrs. F l o o d , Mr. and Mrs. B aylis, and Mr. James Mann, a few weeks since, for Jamaica. For the latter a free passage was granted by the kindness of Messrs. A n g a s & Co. whose truly Christian liberality in this respect we have previously had frequent occasion to record. A considerable number o f applications from young men willing to engage in missionary service, have been received; some o f which are under con­ sideration. Three candidates have been admitted on pro­ bation, who give reason to hope that God has designed them for usefulness in years to come. Besides these, two German youth of intelligence and piety are under instruction in Switzerland, with a view to their promoting the interests of the Society, either as Missionaries abroad, or in making known its object and advocating its claims among the numerous Menonite churches scattered throughout the northern parts of Europe. 21

From the unexampled state of commercial embarrassment into which the country has been thrown for several months, and from which it has not yet recovered, our friends will not be surprised to hear that the receipts o f the Society have fallen considerably below the amount of the preceding year. It is, however, proper to add, that the ordinary sources of income have been affected even less than might have been anticipated— the difference being principally in the amount of extra donations and legacies, which must always be uncertain and variable; and which, in the year 1824 were unusually large. Still, to a point so intimately connected with the extension and prosperity of the cause, the Committee feel it incumbent on them to direct the attention o f their friends and the Christian public in general. In no year of its history, probably, has the Society lost so many of its kind and liberal supporters by death, while others no longer possess the ability to render it pecuniary aid. But are there not many, both in town and country, well able to subscribe to the Society, who have not yet justly appreciated its claims upon them? Are there not some among our brethren in the ministry, whose exertions in their respective neighbourhoods would be highly valuable, if they would favour the Society by making them? Whatever measures the acting Committee can adopt, with the approbation of their coadjutors through the country, to render the funds o f the Institution more commensurate with its great object, will be tried; but the success o f such measures must, after all, under the divine blessing, depend on the zealous and affectionate co-operation of our churches at large. And, surely, the experience o f the past, and the prospects o f the future—the precepts of divine authority, and the promises of divine mercy, enforced as they are by the wretched condition of the heathen world, and the manifest adaptation o f the means we employ for their deliverance from it— will not urge an ineffectual plea. Other Institutions, formed for a similar purpose, grow, from year to year, in . the extent of their resources, and are enabled, consequently, to multiply their . efforts to do g ood ; and shall our Society remain stationary or decline? May the answer to this appeal, from every heart in this assembly, and through a much wider circuit, be such as the Saviour himself shall dictate and approve ? 22

In aid of the Translations of the Holy Scriptures, two do­ nations of £300 each have been forwarded by the Edinburgh Bible Society. The sum o f £200 has also been contributed by T hom as K e y , Esq. o f Water Fulford, whose liberality we have before had such frequent occasion to notice. The Netherlands Auxiliary Society have renewed their annual donation o f £ 2 0 0 ; and at the instance of the gentlemen in Jamaica, who act as agents for the New England So­ ciety, and who are well acquainted with the state of our Mission in that island, various sums, amounting in all to £250, have been voted to our stations there, by that respectable body. It would be a gratifying task, not merely to specify these larger donations, with which the Society has been favoured in the course of the last year, but to enumerate many other proofs which have been given of affectionate regard to its interests. Ministers who have travelled and preached for the Society— friends who have kindly undertaken the care and management of our Auxiliary institutions— Christian females who have devoted their time, their influence, and in some in­ stances, the labour of their hands, to the cause— and children, who have redeemed money which would have been squan­ dered on trifles, and cast it into the treasury o f the Lord— might all be mentioned in terms of honest and grateful com­ mendation. But, if these services are rendered from love to the Redeemer, and compassion for souls whom he died to save, an infinitely nobler reward will be bestowed by ap­ proving Mercy in the great and final day of account. The superstitious Hindoo, the bigotted Mussulman, and the de­ graded Negro, cannot recompense you— the overwhelming majority of each class, are neither able to appreciate your labours, or disposed to welcome your messengers— but, what­ ever may be the immediate result of your exertions, springing from the principles we have mentioned, they shall be recom­ pensed at the resurrection of the just. May we live and act with that day in view, A m en! LIST OF CONTRIBUTIONS,
