NOTICE IN REFERENCE TO BEQUESTS.

As the kind intentions of some of the deceased friends of the S ociety have been rendered abortive lor want of correct knowledge of the law relating to Charitable Bequests, the Committee call special attention to the following directions:— By Statute 6 Gso. II. cap. 36, eommonly called the Mortmain Act, it is enacted, Section 1, that after the 24th June, 1736, “ no manors,lands, tenements,rents, advowsons, or other hereditaments, cor­ poreal or incorporeal, whatsoever; nor any s u m or sums of money, goods, chattels, stocks in the public funds, securities for money, or any other personal e*ate. whatsoever, to be laid out or disposed of m tbe purchase of any lands, tenements, or hereditaments, shall be given, granted, alienated, limited, released, transferred, assigned, or appointed, or any ways conveyed or settled to, or upon, any person or persons, bodies politic or corporate, or otherwise, for any estate or interest whatsoever, or any ways charged or incumbered by any person or persons whatsoever in trust, or for the benefit of any charitable uses whatsoever, u n l e s s such gift, conveyance, appointment, or settlement of any such lands, tenements, or hereditaments, sum or sums of money, or personal estates (other than stocks in the public funds) be, and be made by d e e d , indented, sealed and delivered, in the presence of two or more credible witnesses, twelve calendar months at least b e f o r e t h e d e a t h of such donor or grantor (including the days of the execution and deatli), and be enrolled in- Bis Majesty’s Sigh Court of Chancery, within six calendar months next after the execution thereof; a n d u n l e s s such s t o c k s be transferred in the public books usually keptfor the transfer of stock, six calendar months at least before the death of such donor or grantor (including the days of the transfer and death), a n d u n l e s s the same be made to take effect in posses­ s i o n for the charitable uses intended immediately from the making thereof; a n d b e w i t h o u t any power of revocation, reservation, trust, condition, limitation clause or agreement whatsoever, for the benefit of the donor or grantor, or any person or persons claiming under him.” The third section of the statute enacts “ That all gifts, grants, conveyances, appointments, assurances, transfers, and settlements whatsoever, of any lands, tenements, or other hereditaments, or of any estate or interest therein, or of any charge or incumbrance affecting or to affect any lands, tenements, or hereditaments, or of any stock, money, goods, chattels, or other personal estate, or securities for money to be laid out or disposed of in the purchase of any lands, tenements, or hereditaments, or of any estate or interest therein, or of any charge or incumbrance affecting, or to affect, the same to, or in trust for, any charitable uses -whatsoever, which shall at any time from and after the 24th June, 1736, be made in any other form than by this Act is directed and appointed, shall be a b s o l u t e l y , and to all intents and purposes, n u l l a n d v o i d .” Upon these enactments it may be observed:— 1st. That the Baptist Missionary Society is a Charitable Institution, within the meaning of this Act. 2ndly. Land, money arising out of land, or money secured on land wholly or partly, and whether freehold or leasehold, can be given to a charity only by deed in manner directed by the statute. 3rdly. Not only cannot a will pass to a charity any property of the above description, but no money- legacy given to a charity can be satisfied out of snch property. If, therefore, a testator has only land, mortgages, rent-charges, debentures, or securities on land, the legacy will fail altogether; if his estate be mixed it will fail to the extent of the proportion of this property to pure personalty. If A. having £1,500; namely, £500 at his bankers, and £1,000 on mortgage, gives £100 to a charity, the bequest will only be worth £33 6s. 8d. Railway and canal shares are pure personalty, and may be used to satisfy a charitable lcgacy, but not railway debentures. By 1 Vic. cap. 26, sec. 9, it is further enacted, “ That no will shall be valid, unless it shall be in writing, and executed in manner hereinafter mentioned (that is to say): it shall be signed at the foot or end thereof by the Testator, or by some other person in his presence or by his direction: and such signa­ ture shall be made or acknowledged by the Testator in the presence of two or more Witnesses present at the same time; and such Witnesses shall attest and shull subscribe the trill in the presence of the Testator; but no Form of Attestation shall be necessary.” N.B.—Wills executed prior to the first day of January, 1838, are not affected by this act; but any alteration therein, or codicil thereto, must be executed in the manner before mentioned. The following Form of Bequest may be safely adopted by those who wish to bequeath such property as may be left by will for this purpose

FORM OF BEQUEST. Igive to the Treasurer or Treasurers for the time being, of the Baptist Missionary Society, the sum of £ sterling, to be paid exclusively out of such parts of my personal estate, not specifically bequeathed, as may lawfully be given by will to charity, and Hot to abate unless there should be no other fund for the payment in full of my other legacies, and in such case only rateably with my other pecuniary or general legacies.

I f any friends wish to bequeath property for Translations or Schools, it is only necessary to say instead of the General Fund, the Translation Fund, or the School Fund. It ia ptoper to observe, that the above restrictive statute does not extend to Scotland» Ireland, or the Colonies. 1674.] EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. ▼ COMMITTEE AND OFFICERS.— 1874-75.

THE ANNUAL PUBLIC MEETING

OF THE BAPTIST MISSIONARY SOCIETY

WAS HELD IN

EXETER HALL,

O n THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL 3 0 t h , 1874.

Th e Treasurer, JOSEPH TRITTON, E sq., of L ondon, in the Ch air .

1. The Meeting was opened by singing and prayer, conducted by the Rev. Chas. W il lia m s , of Accrington.

2. The Chairman addressed the Meeting.

3. Dr. Und e r h ill gave a statement of the principal features of the Society’s operations during the past year.

4. The first resolution, as follows, moved by the Rev. W . B est, B.A., of Leeds, and seconded by the Rev. J. C. Page, Missionary from Darjeeling, was agreed to unanimously :— That this meeting hears with pleasure and gratitude to God of the success which has attended the labours of the society in all the countries where its missionaries are found ; of the increasing circulation and the acceptance among the people of the Word of God ; of the growing interest shown hy the people of India in the Gospel of Christ ; and of the liberality of the churches at home, as shown by the large increase in the amount of their contributions ; and they rejoice that the com­ mittee have been enabled by the blessing of God to add new missionaries to the number of those already engaged.

5. The second resolution, as follows, was moved by the Rev. L. S k r e f sr t t d , Missionary, from Sonthalistan, and seconded by the Rev. T. W . H a n d f o r d , o f Bloomsbury, and agreed to unanimously :— That this meeting gives a hearty welcome to those beloved brethren who have for so many years laboured in the Gospel in Pagan lands, but who are now com­ pelled, by the infirmities of age, or by the effects of a long residence in tropical climes, to return home for the purpose of re-invigorating their broken health ; and, in view of the vacancies thus brought about, and of the weakening of the Mission band thereby occasioned, it approves of the proposal of the Committee further to reinforce the Missions in India, China, Africa, and Trinidad, by sending out, during the year, at least five additional missionaries. This meeting commends this inten­ tion to the sympathy of the churches, and does not doubt that the funds it will require will be as liberally provided as they have been in the year just passed away.

6. The Meeting was closed by the Doxology and Benediction. EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT.

I n the Report of last year, the Committee expressed their wish that they might be furnished ■with the means to equip and send out at least five new brethren to the work in India. It is with thanksgiving to the Head of the Church, that they have to announce the fulfilment of that wish. The losses sustained by death, or otherwise, have been made good, and a clear addition o f five brethren to their staff secured. In effecting this they have been indebted to the Birmingham Auxiliary for a gift of £500, as a memorial of their jubilee year, but the growing contributions of the churches give promise that the additional charge on the funds of the Society thus incurred will, in the year to come, be supplied. N ot a moment too soon has this reinforcement come. Early in the year the missionary band was lessened by the resignation of the Rev. Josiah Parsons, and by the, alas ! too early death of the Rev. J. A. Campagnac. And now, in a few months, all the senior brethren, with two or three exceptions, will be at home, compelled to leave their posts by the effects of long enduring toil. The Revds. Dr. Wenger, J. Sale, and J. Trafford, will be added to the Revds. C. B. Lewis, J. Lawrence,. J. Page, T. Martin, and T. Evans, who are already seeking in the more genial climate of their native land a reinvigoration of their powers, exhausted by the labours of many years in the mission field. Their high character and great services, will secure for them an affectionate welcome, and the well-deserved esteem o f the churches whose “ messengers ” they have so long been among the heathen. The Committee have also had the pleasure of making the personal acquaintance of the Rev. L. O. Skrefsrud, the energetic colleague of Mr. Boerresen, in the conduct of the Sonthal Mission. Of the brethren at home last year, our veteran missionary, the Rev. G. Pearce, accompanied by his no less brave-hearted wife, has returned to 2 E IG H T Y-SE CON'D B.EPOTCT. [1874. his charge full of hope, and confident that days of blessing are at hand for India. The Hev. J. H . and Mrs. Anderson, and the Rev. A. and Mrs. McKenna, have also resumed their work, both Mr. Anderson and Mr. McKenna having most effectively served the Society while at home by their intelligent and effective addresses as deputations. The new additions to our number consist of the following brethren:— the Rev. Hormazdji Pestonji, a converted Parsee, who occupies the long vacant post at Poonah; the Rev. TV. Greenway, an old servant of the Society, who will take a sphere in the North-West Provinces; the Rev. E. C. B. Hallam, formerly of the American Mission, who for the present fills the place of Mr. Lawrence ; and the four young brethren, who for the first time leave their homes for Christ’s service abroad, viz., the Revds. R. Guyton, of Chepstow, C. C. Brown and R. Spurgeon, both of London, and J. Mintridge, of Birmingham. The two years’ probation of these young missionaries will be spent under the care of the senior brethren labouring in Delhi, Backergunge, Sewry, and Jessore respectively. The Committee have every confidence that the devotedness and zeal which have led them to consecrate their lives to the promotion of the Redeemer’s glory, will stimulate them to the greatest assiduity in their preparatory studies, and sustain them in the great warfare on which they have entered. Notwithstanding these additions to the staff of missionaries, there are stations in Trinidad, Africa, China, and Northern India that yet remain to be filled. The unusual drain on our strength demands yet further efforts to meet all the requirements of the Mission. In view of this, the Committee have directed that the attention of the incoming Committee shall be called to the necessity of a further increase in the number of missionaries, and have left their opinion on record that, at least, five, more brethren should be engaged in the coming year. To this question, therefore, the attention of the Churches must be directed, and the Com­ mittee will have to rely on the same liberality and sympathy, which, during the past year, have been so conspicuously displayed. 1874,] EIGHTY-SECOND EEPORT. 3

STATE OF INDIA.

There is no need in the present report to add to the testimonies given in former years, which establish the successful results and growing power of the labours of missionaries in India. Every year enlarges their number and value. From the pulpit of the cathedral of Westminster, as well as from the plains o f Hindustan, the knell of departing Hinduism is tolled. Notwithstanding its profession by at least an hundred millions of souls, and that enormous number falls short of the truth, “ I do not shrink from saying,” says Professor Max Müller, “ that their religion is dying or dead. And why ? Because it cannot stand the light of day.” And after enumerating a few of the many deities worshipped by the Hindus, he adds, “ Ask any Hindu, who can read, and write, and think, whether these are the gods he believes in, and he will smile at your credulity. How long this living death of national religion in India may last no one can tell.” These words are an instructive commentary on the language of the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews :— “ Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.”

EFFECTS OF PREACHING.

That many agencies are in operation to produce this destructive result is indubitable; but by universal consent the preaching of the Gospel is the most effectual. He who is wise in counsel and wonderful in operation makes use of manifold instruments; but His word is the incorruptible seed which liveth and abideth for ever. For long your missionaries were as the voice of one crying in the wilderness. A response was rare, and the apparent effect a momentary and passing interest. Yet, judged by the numbers who have made an open profession of Christianity, the results of seventy years’ missionary enterprise, in the governorship of Bengal alone, are pronounced by the severest critics to be not “ very inadequate,” while evidence year by year accumulates that the seed sown “ by all waters,” with no immediate token of success, is now bearing fruit, and, in remaik- able ways, exhibiting its undying life. The reports of the missionaries continue to show, as in former years constant and assiduous efforts to reach every class of the community t 4 EIGHTY-SECOND XEPOBT. [1874

The streets, roads, markets, fairs, and festivals have, as usual, been visited, and vast numbers of people have listened with more or less attention to the Word of God. In a few places, as in Allahabad, efforts are being made, both by Hindus and Mussulmans, to stem the rising tide. A t the last mela, a Brahmin priest turned out to preach on several occasions. It is an unprecedented event for a Brahmin to stand forth and address the vulgar crowd. “ The idea,” says the Rev. J. D. Bate, “ of the sacred person of a Brahmin standing on a heap of sand or rubbish and haranguing a seething mass of people, after the manner of a Christian padre, is, according to the ideas and practices of the people themselves, a shocking innovation ; and innovation is more abhorrent than vice to a people so intensely conservative as the Hindu.” The exasperation of failure, or the dread of the missionaries’ success, even leads to personal assaults. On one occasion Mr. Bate was assailed and several savage blows inflicted from behind by a faquir. His books and tracts were scattered in all directions, the man shoutiDg all the time “ K ill him ! kill him, he is a destroyer of our religion ! ” On another occasion a dozen o f the followers of the False Prophet rushed fiercely through the crowd, threw off their garments, and raising their clubs high in the air threatened the missionary with death, if he dared to repeat what had been said. The threat was unheeded, and the truth was none the less fearlessly proclaimed. In some parts of Bengal— in Bikrampore — the Rev. Isaac Allen reports that the same spirit has shown itself. On the other hand, in Patna, where Islamism has long held sway, opposition has died away, and any display of hostility is frowned upon by the audiences who gather to hear the Word. In general, the reception of the preachers, whether native or European, is all that can be desired. “ With­ out question,” says the Rev. R . J. Ellis, o f Jessore, “ many are thinking about Christianity in this district; ” and he mentions an instance where the individual referred to made no secret of his convictions, and even exhorted his neighbours and relatives to inquire into the truth of the Gospel. On one occasion he was surrounded for hours by a band of inquiring Mussulmans, who, with well-thumbed Bibles in their hands, dis­ cussed with him the doctrines of the Cross. “ In those parts,” he adds, I sold many Scriptures, and had very large audiences wherever I preached.” 1874.] EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. 5

CIRCULATION OF THE SCRIPTURES.

It is a very noticeable feature of the year’s labours that, to a very large extent, in all parts of the field of our operations, the gratuitous distribution of tracts and scriptures has been abandoned, and great numbers are purchased, at a small price indeed, but with readiness ani pleasure. Thus, of the 19,339 copies of various portions of the Sacred Scripture issued from our depository, Dr. W enger says they were “ not givtsu gratis but sold.” “ This ” says the Rev. G. H . Rouse, “ is one of the many pleasing indications which we have of the readiness of the people of India to purchase portions of the Word of God. Although the price charged is extremely small (less than a halfpenny a copy,) yet it is sufficient to prevent the book being sold for waste paper, and it appears, therefore, to be a test of the sincerity of the desire felt by the purchasers to read it. It is very cheering that every year so many thousand copies of the Gospels are thus being sold in various parts of India,— probably nearly 100,000 portions of Scripture being sold annu&lly by colportage agency, in addition to the sales from depositories, and in other ways.” The Rev. R. J. Ellis reports that 1,2'JO copies of parts of the Scriptures have been sold in his district, many of them to Mussulmans. The books have mostly been sold by indigent Christians, who receive a small percentage on their sales. In all, upwards of £30 have been paid by purchasers of our books, in the course of the year, in this district alone. In the thirteen journeys taken by the Rev. W. A. Hobbs and his native assistants, 690 Gospels, and about 120 tracts, were sold in the district of Birbhoom. In Patna the proceeds of the sales have been sufficient to pay the salary of the colporteur and his travelling expenses. “ I took with me,” says the Rev. J. D. Bate, of Allahabad, “ on each occasion, a bundle of our religious publica­ tion» in the Hindi and Urdu languages, and sold a large number during the year, especially to the pilgrims who constantly flow through the heart of the city. I first preach and then offer the books for sale. On one occasion I sold, within about seven or eight minutes, as many as sixty- fcix pice-worth. It is greatly encouraging to reflect on the extent of good that may be accomplished, by these heralds of Divine mercy being carried by the people to their thousands of homes throughout the land.” This encouragement is justified by facts. Often, in the most singular 6 EIGHT Y-SECOXJD BEPOE.T. [1874. way, persons are met with whose knowledge o f the Scriptures shows that this mode o f labour is not in vain in the Lord. The most remarkable instance in the year’s reports, is an incident related by the Rev. R. Bion, of which an abstract may be given in the words of the native preacher Ram Kanta. It is now thirty years ago since a person called Sree Nath, in Bickrampore, professed to receive, in a way unknown to us, but probably by the falling of a Bible into his hands, a revelation of the names of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He left two disciples, one of whom, Radha Krishna, continued the work of his predecessor. While preaching on the Baronee River, Ram Kanta met with one of his followers, by name Godadhar. In conversation this man thus explained his belief:— “ 1 According to the command of Sree Nath, we are in the habit of reading the Bible and praying together and confessing Christ to be the Incarnate God. We believe in Him. By our prayers many diseased people get deliverance and have health restored. If any one among us is guilty of fornication or other grievous sin, we put him out of our congre­ gation, according to the Apostle Paul’s command ; but if he forsakes his sin, we receive him again according to the Apostle’s instructions.’ “ Hearing all this, I (Ram Kanta) told him that there must be much that is false, mixed up with all this, and that the statement that Sree Nath and his disciples had received power to work miracles, cannot be correct. Upon this Godadhar said: ‘ Your words are surely contrary to the Bible, because the Lord gave this promise: “ Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” Therefore, if the Lord is with His disciples, can they not work miracles ? ” I (Ram Kanta) said a great deal to him, but he rejected all my words. A t last Godadhar asked m e ,‘ Do you take medicine when you are i l l ? ’ I replied, ‘ Yes, if I am ill, I use medicine.’ Upon this he was distressed, and said, ‘ You act against the Bible. Christ and His disciples never gave sick people medicine, and there is no permission given in the Bible anywhere to take medicine ; it is rather forbidden.’ I asked him where it was forbidden ? He said, ‘ It is written in the Epistle of James v. 14 “ Is any sick among you? ” &c. By these words like as fornication and murder are forbidden^ even so is the use of medicine forbidden. By taking medicine, when you are ill, you transgress an important command of Christ.’ “ In this way, in conversing and arguing, the hour of eating arrived, 1874.J EIGHTY-SECOND EEPORT. 7 and I invited him to dine with me, but when I told him that I ate meat, he refused to eat with me. He therefore went to the bazar and brought his eatables himself, and, after having eaten, said : ‘ It is written in the Bible, 1 Cor. viii. 13, “ Wherefore, if meat make thy brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.” On this account we eat no meat, because all the people around us would be offended by it.’ “ Till late into the night did we converse together. The next day? early in the morning, while taking leave, he expressed the desire that if a preacher would come among them and live with them, they would feel very great pleasure. In this man’s Stands were the Psalms of David, and on the title page were these words written :— 1. “ ‘ Obey God’s commands. 2. “ ‘ Walk in the true way. 3. “ ‘ Search the Scriptures.’ ” In the views expressed by M r. Bion in his concluding remarks, the Committee fully concur:— “ No one would be more glad than myself, if such believing communities as seem to exist in and around Serajdabad should increase a hundredfold, have their own mode of worship and church government, and be left alone, provided they walk according to the Gospel. It has been for some years past and shall be my care for the future, to apply no further test to professing converts than that of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, manifested by the forsaking of idolatry and sin, in order that they may not be bur­ dened or discouraged by “ the traditions of men,” such as the eating of meat and the forsaking of their hemes and villages unnecessarily.”

BIBLICAL TRANSLATION.

In the work of Biblical translation, Dr. Wenger has been fully occupied in carrying through the press his revised editions of the Old and New Testaments in Bengali, with marginal references. The Annotated Gospels published last year are appreciated in many quarters, not only in Bengal but also in the outskirts. Encouraged by the reception of this work he has prepared notes in manuscript on the first nine chapters of the Acts. The inquiry for the Sanscrit Scriptures is also spreading. In reference to this gratifying fact, Dr. Wenger writes :— “ Quite recently I heard 8 EIGHTY-SECOND BEPORT. [ 1874.

from an old man of respectable standing in native society, who, though not himself a Brahmin, is on very friendly terms with some Brahmin pundits of his town or -village, that a remarkable interest had been excited in their minds by the perusal of a copy, or a few copies, of the Psalms in Sanscrit, printed in the Bengali character which he had given to them. He himself is a Christian, though only of two or three years standing. To my astonishment I found that he had committed to memory, and proceeded to recite to me, about one-third of the 51st Psalm in Sanscrit.” In the Lepcha language, spoken by the people of Sikkim, near Darjeeling, in the Himalayas, an edition o f the Gospel of John has been issued, and the book of Genesis is in the press. Besides these, editions of the Gospels in Bengali, in a separate form, have been printed for the British and Foreign Bible Society, and Mr. Rouse has also prepared the Gospels, with explanations o f the difficult foreign words, and a Biblical commentary on the text, for general use. Besides an edition for our own Mission, printed under the care of Mr. Rouse and Mr. Etherington, the Committee have very gladly given their consent to a reprint of the admirable version of the New Testament in Hindi, the work of the late Rev. John Parsons, for circulation by the North India Auxiliary of the British and Foreign Bible Society. It is being carried through the press by the Rev. J. D . Bate, of Allahabad. Both Mr. Etherington and Mr. Bate have also been engaged in other literary and helpful work — Mr. Bate on a dictionary of the Hindi lan­ guage, and Mr. Etherington on two grammars of that tongue, one of which has been adopted in the Government schools. At the request of the Con­ ference which met in Calcutta in November last, Mr. Bate is preparing to enter on a new version of the Old Testament, to be executed on the same principles and in the same style ds Mr. Parsons’ New Testament. This arduous task will be the work o f many years ; but the Committee are happy to learn that it is committed to the hands of one whom his brethren regard as in all respects well qualified for its execution. In a somewhat remarkable way, Divine Providence has brought to Mr. Bate’s aid a pundit of great knowledge and learning. The history of this pundit is an interesting one. Three or four years ago he became known to the missionary, by an unflinching assertion at the preaching- place in the city, in the presence of crowded audiences, that the idolatrous practices of the Hindus were unauthorized by their most ancient sacred 1874.] EIGHTY-SECOND REPOBT. 9 writings. It brought upon him unmeasured abuse, and, in consequence of his outspoken attacks on the popular system, his father, a very strict and learned Hindu, rendered his home intolerable. The following year, at the time of the festival, he reappeared in Allahabad, and pursued the same course of opposition to the religious customs and ideas of his countrymen. He then resolved to stay with the missionaries, and gave to Mr. Evans his two bronze idols as an indication of his abandonment of idolatry, though he continued to adhere to the Deistic philosophy as the most ancient form of Hinduism. At this time he went to reside with hia wife and some members of his family in the Hindu part of the eity, where he had to encounter the most violent personal assaults and the bitterest persecution. He soon after left Allahabad, and for nearly two years and a half it was not known what had become of him. In August last he came to Mr. Bate, dirty, weary, footsore, ill-clad, and covered with perspiration and dirt, having journeyed, without purse or scrip, two hundred and fifty miles to reach the missionary. In the interval, he had passed through the deepest affliction. He was discarded by his father. His brother’s life had been sacrificed because of his affection for him. One of his father’s wives, who showed favour to him, was mercilessly murdered by some unknown hand, by boiling oil being poured over her while she slept. Soon after his return he gave up his Brahminical thread in the presence of an assembly of natives met for Christian instruction and worship. Six weeks after, in company with Imam Masih, he went to fetch his wife and family, and on the last day of the year he was baptized in the presence of a large assembly. Laying aside his heathen name, he will henceforth be known as Shree Dhar Bishwasi. He possesses a thorough knowledge of the Sanscrit, which he speaks with remarkable fluency and power, and his acquaintance with the science, philosophy, and religion of the Hindus is of the most extensive kind. His attainments, consecrated to Christian work, will prove of the greatest value to Mr. Bate in the execution .o f the task he has undertaken.

THE NATIVE CHURCHES.

The movement commenced three years ago in the villages to the south of Calcutta, to secure the self-support of the churches, has thus far met with gratifying success. The fears expressed that many of the converts 10 EIGHTY-SECOND KEPOET. [1874-

■would be drawn away to other missions, in which such burdens are not imposed, have proved groundless. But the native evangelist, Itomanath Chowdhry, is afraid that the impending famine will render some aid necessary in the present year. The greater portion of the crop has already been sold to pay the rent due, and the remainder will not suffice for the maintenance of many of the people throughout the year. The mere labourer will starve as soon as the working season is over, while the land set aside for the special support o f their pastor has borne but a very meagre and inadequate crop. The cattle plague and fever epidemic have also visited them. In this extremity the Committee are happy to have it in their power, through the liberality of the churches, to render whatever aid may be required in this as well as in other parts of the Btricken land. The similar effort made in that part of the Jessore district which is under the superintendence of the Rev. Gogon C. Dutt, is being manfully sustained, with every hope of ultimate success, notwithstanding the oppression and litigious conduct of the zemindars. In Delhi, the growth o f the churches in independence and piety, the instruction o f inquirers and candidates for baptism, and the propagation of the Gospel among the heathen, have been steadily kept in view, and with a very encouraging measure of success. The churches, now eight in number, with a membership of 180 persons, have for the most part conducted their own services, managed their own affairs, and paid their own expenses. There is much voluntary teaching, from house to house, among the heathen, carried on by the members. The new church formed at Subzi Mundi has erected a building to be used as a chapel and school- house, and not only has the cost been met by the people, but they have had the trust deed made out and registered in their own name. “ The indirect influence of Christianity,” adds the Rev. James Smith, “ visible is in improved circumstances, better clothing, cleaner houses, and a growing desire for education. Experience proves in India, as well as elsewhere, that the religion of Jesus is a most effective instrument for civilizing and elevating the natives. There is no caste too low, and no degradation too deep, for the Gospel to reach.” It is with deep regret that the Committee feel themselves constrained to notice the intrusion o f the missionaries of the Society for the Propa­ gation of the] Gospel both into Delhi and the district of Backergunge, 1874.] EIGHTY-SECOND UEPORT. 11

and their interference with the discipline of the churches and the move­ ments of our missionary biethren occupying these fields. By this course the agents of that Society break through the well understood rule which has hitherto been observed by all other missionary bodies; and by their assumption of superior authority, by the claim of a false apostolic com­ mission, by their contempt of the principles of church order prevalent in other Christian churches, and by their unwarranted denunciations of the validity of the ordinances as administered by other communities, they introduce schisms into the body of Christ, and cause the enemy to blaspheme by the disorders and contentions they encourage. The Com­ mittee cannot but hope that the Directors of the Society to which these missionaries belong, will see it their duty to check this unadvised zeal, and to withdraw them from the places into which, without any necessity whatever, they have ventured to intrude. The field is the world, and there are vast regions in India itself, to say nothing of other lands, where as yet the Gospel has not been preached, and where Christian labour may well be bestowed.

CONFERENCE OF MISSIONARIES.

In the last week of November, the Annual Meeting of the Missionary Conference was held in Calcutta. On this occasion the brethren of the North-West Provinces united in deliberation with those of Bengal. The meeting was, in all respects, a gratifying one. The presence of the Master was felt. Much harmony of sentiment, and agreement on all practical questions, were exhibited. Among the more important subjects which received attention may be mentioned:— the education of native Christians; the best way of diffusing Biblical knowledge among the

Churches; the m o w Bengali Hymn B ook; the evangelization of the Mahommedans of Eastern Bengal; the revision of the Old Testament in the Hindi language, the training of those who are desirous of becoming evangelists in connection with the Society; the acceptance of candidates for that work; and especially the desirability of giving some of our advanced native preachers a more independent position. The conclusions of the Conference, on these various points, have been approved by the Committee, and much attention has been given by them to the rules which should govern the appointment of native brethren to independent 12 EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. [1874. spheres of operation, as home missionaries acting under the immediate direction of the Committee. Three brethren already stand in this rela­ tion to the Society— the Revds. Goolzar Shah, Gogon C. Dutt, and Tarachurn Banerjea. The Committee have now accepted the services o f their brother, Romanauth Chowdhry, and two more have been received on a two years’ probation. The duties of these brethren will be the same as those of the European missionaries. They will act as evangelists, and be so placed as to occupy a sufficiently wide field, in which their resources, energies, and gifts may have full play. It will be their object, as missionaries, to organise their converts into churches, and, for awhile, to exercise a general supervision over the communities thus established. In no case will they undertake the pastorate of churches, except by the express sanction of the Committee. There is every reason to hope that the activity of our native brethren will, by this means, receive a fresh stimulus, and, at the same time, a still wider circle of operations will be brought within reach of the Society’s resources

THE BENGAL FAMINE.

The last months of the year have been overshadowed by the dread and the deepening shadows o f the famine now threatening some of the fairest provinces of Bengal. Millions of people, from the loss or deficiency of their crops, must inevitably suffer the pangs of hunger in the extremest form, except in so far as they may be relieved by the energetic action of Government. The most vigorous measures are being taken by the Governor-General, and his coadjutors, to supply food, in the famished districts, and there is reason to hope that, to a large extent, the worst results of starvation will be averted, and the grim march of want and famine be stayed. With, perhaps, the exception of Dinajpore, it is probable that the districts in which our native Christians reside will not be called upon to bear that extreme severity of want, which must befall other less favoured parts. But the rise in the price of rice, and other articles of food, will entail upon them great distress. The savings o f years must be sacrificed to procure provisions, the stipends of the native pastors and preachers will be inadequate to meet their absolute ■wants, seed for the next sowing must be procured at great cost, aud there are yet months to elapse before the season of a new harvest will come 1874.] EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. 13 round. Assured of these circumstances, the Committee lost no time in appealing to their friends to furnish them with the means to supply the necessities of their brethren in the Lord. The response has been one of the most generous description, and in the fire weeks which followed the issue of the appeal, no less a sum than £3,126 was placed in the treasurer’s hands. It has come from churches and individuals of every grade; from quarters in which our general ope* ations find, little support, and with expressions of sympathy which largely increase the value of the gift. It has not trenched in any degree on the ordinary sources of the Society’s income, and. it may be regarded as a pure, generous, and cheerful offering of fraternal aiiection from the Christians of this country to their tried and afflicted brethren in the East. Let it be the earnest prayer of the churches that this dire calamity may lead multitudes to reflect on the follies and wretchedness of idolatry, and on the worthlessness of the gods they serve. May they be led by it to return to the Shepherd and Bishop of souls in whom alone there is eternal life.

CEYLON.

Although the missionaries report that the additions to the churches are not so large as usual, there has been a considerable increase in the amount of work done, and, aided by local gifts, a new district, called Saffragam, has been drawn within the circle of our evangelistic effort. The field cultivated by the Baptist Mission in the western and north­ western province of the island, is a region containing a population of over 530,000 souls. “ If the great work of evangelisation,” remarks the Rev. H. R. Pigott, “ does not seem to advance so rapidly as some could wish, let it be remembered that the true missionary aims at depth and solidity in his operations, rather than extensive superficiality.” That the success aimed at is secured, is evident from the steady growth of the churches in numbers, in intelligence, in devotedness to the Saviour, and in their increasing liberality. Fifteen churches have been established in the districts under Mr. Pigott’s charge, with a membership of five hundred and seventy-nine persons. During the year a new chapel has been opened at Medampe. It originated in 1869, in the desire expressed by the inhabitants that a station should be formed there, the Modeliar of 14 EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. [ 1874.

the district heading- the deputation that sought the missionary’s assistance, and liberally contributing towards the erection of the building. The ground, worth £100, -was given by four gentlemen, and the foundation was laid by the Rev. F. D. Waldock, on the 2ist Jaly, 1870. The cost of the structure has been £380, the greater part of which has already been contributed by those who will enjoy the ministration of the Gospel within its walls. The liberal rules laid down by the Government have greatly stimulated the growth of education, and enabled the missionaries largely to increase the number of the schools under their supervision. Twenty-three boys* schools and seventeen for girls, containing an aggregate of 2,136 children, give to those who resort to them the ordinary amount of secular learning, and from time to time they receive earnest instruction in the truths of the Gospel. Many of the members of the churches have in the past been brought to the knowledge of Christ in the schools, and it may confidently be hoped that similar fruit will be gathered in the years to come. In the Kandy district, the labours of the native brethren have been actively pursued, some additions have been made to the churches, and the very considerable amount of their contributions shows the interest felt by the members in the cause of Christ. The chief part of the time of the Rev. C. Carter has been occupied in completing the revision of his new version of the Old Testament, and in carrying it through the press. The first four books of the Pentateuch have been printed, and Genesis has already been put into circulation. “ All who have been in the habit,” says Mr. Carter, “ of using our New Testament, are glad of this instalment of the Old,” and many of the members are subscribing to obtain copies of the entire volume when it is complete. The version will no doubt have to pass through the fire of criticism, but only to perfect its form, and to enable Mr. Carter to remove from it such blemishes as may yet remain. It is, beyond question, a great improvement on every previous translation of God’s Word in this difficult tongue. The following incident, related by the native pastor at Gampola, well illustrates the way in which the futility of idolatry is sometimes brought home to the mind. Among his inquirers is a man whom he met during a visit to the village in which he resides. “ In conversation, he said that the god of their temple was a fearful and mighty god, and that none but the priest o f the temple could remove the food set before his image with- 1374.J EIGHTY-SECOXD BEPORT. 16

out suffering instant death, and asked me if I would remove it. I said that that is not a god, and his belief was false, and that if he obtained permission from the priest, I would not only remove the food offered to the devil (or god), but treat it in any way without fear. He went to obtain permission, and, after keeping me waiting a long time, came back and said the devil must have seen that Christians can do it, but none of any other religion. From that time he began to inquire into religion, and I gave him a tract on Buddhism, which shook him so much that he showed it to a number o f priests, and tried other means to get it answered, but could not. He now attends the chapel, although he lives four miles away.” The Committee have been happy to welcome home the Rev. F. D. Waldock, after several years of devoted service. So soon as his health and that of his family will allow, he will renew his active and useful labours in the sphere to which he has consecrated his life.

CHINA.

Daring the past year the Rev. T. Richard has made several interesting journeys into the interior of the province of Shantung, of which Chefoo, where the missionaries reside, is the seaport. A t Ninghai, twenty miles from Chefoo, the hostility of the people is stated to be intense. Annoy­ ances of every sort were employed to hinder people from visiting the missionary. A league, indeed, had been formed, sealed by a solemn vow, not to allow a foreigner to visit the place in peace. At Laiyang, a large city eighty miles to the south, the missionary’ s reception was of a totally different character. Two intelligent priests there freely discussed with him the respective merits of Christianity and Buddhism. One man, after hearing an address in the street, followed the missionary to his home with the questions, What must a man do to be accepted with God? W hy should Christ need to die for mankind? At a later period of the year he was baptized by the native pastor, Ching, in Chefoo. Other two men were found to have given up the worship of their ancestors and of their idols, and were in the habit of saying grace before meals. Though weak in faith, of their sincerity Mr. Richard had no doubt. Two miles from the city an individual of the name of Lew was visited, on whose table lay three books— the Scriptures, and the Confacian and 16 EIGHTY-SECOND REPOET. [1874.

Taouist writings. H e said they -were all true. Much conversation ensued, and, later in the year, this individual was also admitted by Ching into the Christian Church. In the autumn, a visit of several weeks’ duration was paid to Chenanfoo, the capital of the province, 3(30 miles from Chefoo, at the time when many thousands of young men were there for the secular and military examinations. Mr. Richard enjoyed many opportunities of usefulness, especially among the military ; and after two months of daily instruction, he had the satisfaction of baptizing a young lieutenant, a native of the province of Honan. Mr. Richard remarks that the home idea of a church requires to be modified wheu applied to China. Groups of Christians are to be met with here and there, but, as a rule, a church is not a number of people meeting together for worship. It consists of individuals “ who worship God as taught by one book, pervaded by one spirit, and separated, as some of our members are, by more than a thousand miles. Our hope and prayer is, that these scat­ tered members will, in process of time, leaven their neighbours with the Spirit of our Lord. All of them have to bear their cross when they leave the faith of their fathers. Brethren, realise their position, and pray for them in their struggles.” The Church thus constituted now numbers fifty members, seven of whom were baptized during the year. Dr. Brown reports that 2,869 persons have this year received medical treatment at his hands, 610 of them in his visits to the country. About forty were indoor patients during the few months there was accommo­ dation for them. To a few pupils Dr. Brown has given instruction in medicine, and, lately especially, to the native pastor, Ching. For the religious instruction given at the dispensary, he has been chiefly indebted to the Rev. Mr. Hartwell, of the American Baptist Mission, and his assistants. Dr. Brown calls especial attention to the enslaving and besotting power of opium-smoking, which is gradually but surely sapping the foundations of Chinese life. Bad as is the proneness to disease that this vice engenders, the physical wreck is of light moment compared with the utter moral ruin wrought by opium. Yet it afflicts almost every rank ; the only class remaining nearly free from the vice being the agriculturists, who, fortunately, as a rule, are too poor to buy the drug. 1874.] e i g h t y - s e c o n d r e p o r t .

AFRICA.

The truce between the Bell and A ’kwa towns has continued for the most part unbroken, so that the missionaries have been able with safety to carry on their Christian labours. For several months the Rev. A. Saker was prostrated with illness, and at length was constrained to leave for home. Though shattered in constitution, the veteran missionary indulges the hope that he may yet penetrate farther into the interior of the country, and, assisted by younger hands, build up among other tribes the kingdom of our Lord. The Rev. R. Smith has also sought in this country the health which several years of labour had seriously impaired. The Rev. J. Fuller, at Mortonville, is greatly encouraged by the nume­ rous attendance of the people, some of whom have been baptized, and he has nearly completed the new chapel, for which funds were furnished him by the churches of Jamaica, on his recent visit to his native home. The new station on the Cameroons Mountain proves to be a spot of great salu­ brity. The Rev. Q,. W . Thomson, after encountering great difficulties from the want of roads and the wild nature of the district, has completed the erection of his house, and commenced the acquisition of the language spoken by the people. They are not very numerous, but are found scat­ tered about in considerable numbers in small hamlets on the mountain side. At Victoria, steady progress has been made. The colony slowly increases in population, among whom in the early part of the year a revival of religious interest took place. Happily, the locality of our mission has been spared the fatal epidemic which has swept away so many Europeans and missionaries in other rivers of the coast. Though sickness has rarely been absent, the gracious Providence of God has guarded the lives of all who are labouring in the Gospel on the Cameroons.

WEST INDIES.

The eight churches which have been formed as the result of the labours of the Society’s missionaries in Trinidad, now contain 500 members, o f whom fifty-seven were baptized in the year now closed. Six of the churches are formed in the settlements in the interior, while those in Port o f Spain and San Fernando, the principal towns of the island, make up the residue. It is gratifying to observe the zeal of the native pastors, 18 EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. [1874.

the liberality of the churches in their support, and the active exertions they have put forth to provide themselves with suitable structures for Divine worship. The general supervision of the whole mission falls very heavily on the Rev. W . H. Gamble, our sole missionary in the island; and it is most desirable that a colleague should speedily he found for him. “ On Tuesday,” he says, referring to only one instance in his active life, “ I rode twenty miles, was in the river (baptizing) forty-five minutes, and had a service from 11 to 2.30. While I am strong, I rejoice in doing this, and much m ore; but if I fail, or become unable to endure such fatigue, I do not see how the work is to be done. I will do it with all my heart as long as I can, but there is no one here to take my place.” The Committee venture to hope that they may be able, ere long, to render the help so earnestly desired, and so necessary for the welfare of the mission in this improving island. Sixteen islands form the centres of the evangelical efforts that have issued in the formation o f numerous churches in the groups of islands which stud the Great Bahama Bank. These communities are only occa­ sionally visited by the missionaries. Their regular religious instruction, their discipline, and the administration of the ordinances of the Gospel, are the work of a body of native pastors raised up upon the spot. The number of members falls scarcely short of 3,500, and the proportion of the entire population attached to the mission is about one-third. With two or three exceptions, their places of worship, though often of a very humble character, have been erected by themselves, and their gifts suffice for the wants of the pastors who watch over them. In order to allow the Rev. J. Davey greater opportunities for visiting the islands of the northern and southern districts, the Committee have invited the Rev. W. X. Brown, a student of the Calabar College, Kingston, Jamaica, and late pastor of the churches in Green Island and Fuller’s Field, to join him as his colleague in the oversight of the church in Nassau, and they anticipate that, in the course of a month or two, he will have arrived in New Provi­ dence for this purpose. In the early part of the year, Mr. Davey visited Puerto Plata and the Turk’s Islands at the request of the Committee, and his report encourages them to carry forward the plan of extending their work in the island of San Domingo. This object will be included within the range of Mr. Davey’s labours. In Inagua, the chief island of the central district, the Rev. W. Littlewood continues to reap the reward of 1874.]! EIGHTY-SECOND BEPOBT. 19 his diligent labours. “ The native pastors,” he states, « have given great satisfaction, and have not laboured in vain. Upon the whole, we find ample encouragement to press forward in the work of our adorable Master, and we beg an interest in your continued sympathies and prayers.” The hopes indulged in with respect to Hayti, in the appointment of the Rev. Joseph Hawkes to occupy the post of our late estimable missionary, the Rev. W . H. Webley, have met with disappointment, to the deep regret of the Committee. The complete failure of Mr. Hawkes’ health rendered his return to this country absolutely necessary. In this strait, the Committee have turned their attention to Jamaica for a supply of labourers. For some time past there has been a desire among the churches there to esta­ blish a mission in Hayti, and proposals to this end were laid before the Committee some months ago, by the Revds. B. Millard and J. E. Hender­ son. The way being now open, the Committee have applied to the Baptist Union of Jamaica, for one of their number to occupy the station at Jacmel, where he will be supported from the funds of the Society; while one of the churches at Clifton has offered to assist the Jamaica churches in the maintenance of a second missionary, to be under their direction, in a station contiguous and mutually helpful to the central station of the Society. The Committee rejoice in the missionary zeal of the churches of Jamaica, and will be glad if Hayti, as well as Africa, shall share their sympathies and Christian exertions. They would hail the time when all the islands of the West may be entirely relinquished to them as the sphere of their active evangelistic operations.

JAMAICA.

From Jamaica the Committee continue to receive the most gratifying information of prosperity and progress. In the census of 1871, not less than 112,604 persons were returned as Baptists— rather more than one-fifth, or 22^ per cent., of the entire population, which is reported to have attained in that year to 506,154 souls. In the report presented at the Annual Meeting of the Jamaica Baptist Union in February last, the Union ■was found to embrace one hundred and ten churches, with a membership of 21,426 persons. Churches not connected with the Union, or which have made no return, bring up the number of members to over 24,000 in­ 20 EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. f 1874.

dividuals, the result of the labours of the missionaries of the Society. About three thousand more are seeking fellowship with the people of the Lord. The Union speaks with gratitude o f the freedom from the inroads of death enjoyed by the pastorate of the churches during the year. Several of the pastors are advanced in years, and are suffering from the infirmities of age ; one of them, the venerable James M. Phillippo, has reached the jubilee of his missionary life in Jamaica, but all are still able to labour for the spread of the Redeemer’s Kingdom. The Committee have rejoiced to aid the Rev. E. Millard to enter upon the pastorate of the churches at Gurney’s Mount and Mount Peto, by contributing the cost of his outfit and passage, while they have continued to sustain, from the fund raised for the purpose, the two brethren, Messrs. Williams and Rees, sent out two years ago. The returns of the year show that 1,277 persons have been baptized into Christ, and that there is a clear increase of 736 in the fellowship of the churches. The losses by death have been considerable, and the exclusions have been somevLat larger than last year. Droughts and floods have, in some measure, affected the congregations. Still, the churches are actuated by a spirit of hopefulness, and their reports speak of good, often crowded, attendance, on the public worship of God. “ Peace, love, and harmony are enjoyed by the large majority ; back­ sliders are seeking restoration, and inquirers are coming forward to be enroled.” Much liberality has been shown in many of the churches in respect to building operations, as well as in the contributions to the support of the Gospel, both at home and abroad. “ On the whole,” says the Report in its conclusion, “ we may well take courage, and resolve, if our lives be spared, to carry on our Master’s work during the next twelve months with earnestness, hopefulness, and ardouri The fathers and founders of the Mission have passed away ; a younger generation has so completely stepped into their places, that there remain on the Island only three Baptist Missionaries that ever preached to slaves. These three, and a few others who entered the field at the commencement of partial freedom in 1834, are all advanced in years, and must soon cease from their labours and enter into rest. In these happier days, our ministers, officers, and members of churches are at perfect liberty to spend, and be spent, in the cause o f Christ, without let or hindrance, and should therefore at once and persistently put forth all their energies that the inhabitants of the land in which God has cast our lot, may become, throughout its entire 1874.] EIGHTT-SECOKD HEPOKI. 21

CALABAR COLLEGE.

The work, both of the College and the Church in East Queen Street, Kingston, has proceeded, without interruption, and there have been evident tokens of the Master’ s promised presence and blessing. Seven theological students and fifteen Normal School students have been under training. The H igh School has numbered fifty-six scholars in average attendance. The Day School, from various causes, has fluctuated, and. the attendance, on the whole, has not been equal to that of former years. Of the Normal School students, six have completed their term of residence in the Institu­ tion, and are already engaged in keeping schools in connection with the mission churches. In almost every instance the schoolmasters are also employed either as preachers or in conducting Sunday services for their respective ministers. Of the Theological students, one is desirous of devoting himself to missionary service in Hayti, and another in Africa. For the coming session three applications for admission are before the Committee in the theological department, and seven for the Normal School department. The complement of students will therefore be maintained in both sections of the Institution. The Committee greatly rejoice in the growing value of the important work in which the Rev. D . J. East and the Rev. J. S. Roberts are engaged, and gratefully recognise the self-de­ votion and consecration o f these esteemed brethren to the advancement of the churches in Jamaica, both in secular and sacred learning. Every year adds to the number and fitness of the native pastorate for the service of the churches, and establishes the great value of the Institution which, for nearly thirty years, the Society has sustained. 2 2 EIGHTY-SECOND BEPOK.T. [1874.

BRITTANY.

Notwithstanding the obstacles, legal and otherwise, existing to the spread of divine truth in this portion of France, there are various circum­ stances which encourage the missionaries to hope for some marked evi­ dence of divine blessing on their efforts. Past labours have not been in vain. “ It is an unmistakable fact,” says the Rev. A. Jenkins, “ that Romanism is on the wane, even in Lower Brittany. A deep feeling of animosity against the clergy now pervades its population, formerly so devoted to its priests; and, whilst old prejudices give way, a spirit of inquiry has set in, which leads ns to hope great things.” In the villages visited around Morlaix, Mr. Jenkins has met many interesting proofs of the facts stated. At Caer Brad, a hamlet of seven or eight farms, he met with a most pleasing reception. On a recent occasion, the house being too small for the number resorting to the meeting, he preached in an adjoining field. Since 1848, open-air preaching in Brittany has been unknown, and the law still forbids it. Other villages have afforded Mr. Jenkins a similar hearty welcome. He especially mentions the aid he has received from a gentleman, two years ago a priest, but who now, in the face of the bitter opposition of his friends, openly and boldly pro­ claims the truth as it is in Jesus. In Morlaix, besides improved congre­ gations in the chapel, a series of well-attended meetings have been held in private houses, and many Roman Catholics have gladly availed them­ selves of these opportunities for hearing the Gospel, who would not venture to attend the public worship of God. The report of Mr. Lecoat, at Tremel, is of a similarly encouraging nature; and the Rev. V. Bouhon informs the Committee that, in Sr. Brieuc, increasing attention has been given to the Word of Life. Two or three interesting cases of conversion have much cheered him in his exer­ tions. The young, as well as those of mature age, have witnessed to the power of the Gospel to save and sanctify the soul.

NORWAY.

The additions to the churches in Norway have been numerous, forty- two persons having put on Christ in baptism. In seventeen towns and villages, little bands o f believers exist, numbering in the whole 37S persons. In addition to the five brethren more or less sustained by the 1874. J EIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. 23

Society, six others render assistance in preaching the W ord. For the most part, the people are very poor, and find great difficulty, on account of the cost, in renting suitable rooms for "worship. This, in their judg­ ment, very much retards the spread of divine truth. In Krageroe, Skien, and Trondhjem, the want of chapels is very much felt, and the brethren are often put to great shifts to provide places adapted to their need. In Tromsoe, a good chapel has been erected, and the cause is very prosperous. A still better building has been erected in the large and important city of Bergen, at a cost of £1,302. The sum of £794 was collected by Mr. Hubert in England, and £71 by the friends in Bergen. The debt still left on the building is £437, which has been borrowed at interest. The structure contains a dwelling-house for Mr. Hubert, in addition to an excellent hall for worship. It was opened for Divine service in the month of August. Sixteen persons have been added to the church during the year. “ The old year,” says Mr. Hubert, “ passed out, and the new one came in with great joy for us. W e have much reason to feel how great debtors we are to His grace who workeih after H is own good will and pleasure. He has done great things for us, whereof we are glad.”

HOME.

Although the Committee have received no detailed report from the Rev. James W all, they have been made fully aware from various quarters of the zeal, assiduity, and success with which Mr. Wall pursues his labours. The divine blessing has been largely poured out, and a con­ siderable number of persons have professed their faith in Christ, and been united to the Church. The prospects of usefulness are in the highest degree encouraging, and the Committee are happy to state that, through the generous kindness of G. T. Kemp, Esq., and other friends, the want of a suitable place for meeting, and a residence for the missionary, is likely ere long to be supplied. The Committee feel greatly indebted to Mr. Kemp for the interest he has taken in this matter. Mrs. W all con­ tinues to distribute large quantities of scriptures and tracts, while the preaching of the Cross continually proves its power to save them that believe. The deep interest and importance which attaches to Mr. W all’s ■work in Home will secure for it, what it deserves, the profound sym­ 24 EIGHTY-SECOND BEPOB.T. [_1874.

FINANCES.

Encouraged by the reception given to their proposal in the last Annual Report, the Committee lost no time in seeking and accepting the services of several candidates for missionary work. The estimated expenditure of the Society was at the time about £2,000 a-year in advance of the ordi­ nary receipts. The necessity, however, of rendering aid to the brethren in India was so urgent that, relying on the promises of God, the Commit­ tee resolved to proceed. The issue has justified their faith. In reporting on the financial operations of the year, the Committee will first speak of the outlay. The total expenditure has been £34,610 Is., an excess of £2,093 Is. 2d. over that of last year. This increase is chiefly in India, where the additional cost of the expansion of the Mission has amounted to £1,144 3s. 6d. The sum of £480 more than last year has also been called for, to meet the expensa of the various translations that have been in hand and at pre$s. If attention be now given to the sources of income by which the Committee h .ve been enabled to meet this expenditure, we find that last year there was received from the Bible Translation Society the sum of £1,240, for the repay­ ment of the expense of the African version, for which no correspond­ ing amount appears in this year’s account. This is also the case with an amount of £356 7s. 3d. received for interest from the Court of Chancery on Nichcll’s legacy. In considering this year’s receipts, the absence of these amounts must be remembered, for the deductions thus made from last year’s income had to be provided for, as well as the chronic disparity o f £<.,000 between the ordinary expenditure and the receipts. The Com­ mittee are happy to say that this has very nearly been accomplished, and, notwithstanding the large deficit thus to be apprehended, the expenditure of the year has been met within £690 11s. lid . The actual amount received on the general account proves to be £33,949 9s. Id— that is, £3,054 16s. 3d. in advance of last year. On analysing this increase, we find that £1,962 6s. 9d. more than the year previous has been sent up by the churches, whose growing interest in our work cannot be more emphatically expressed. The sum of £500 has come from the Birmingham Auxiliary as their Jubilee Offering towards 1874.] BIGHTY-SECOND REPORT. 25 the cost of the new missionaries ; £264 2s. 2d. from the Calcutta press ; and. the remainder consists of various small items for special purposes. From the cash account it will appear that while the sum received on the general account, as already stated, has been £33,949 9s. Id., the Trea­ surer has also received £2,147 16s. 4d. on account of the Widows’ and Orphans’ Fund— an increase of £379 10s. 8d. ; on account of special objects, £1,031 13s. 8d. ; and for the Bengal Famine Fund, £3,126 18s. 8d. The grand total of receipts is, therefore, £40,255 17s. 9d.— the largest income ever enjoyed by the Society. It will be observed that there has this year been no addition to the Legacy Fund, the sums received under this head having to be supple­ mented by a sale of consols, amounting to £264 Os. 8d., to make up the average sum to be appropriated to general purposes. There is a slight increase of expenditure over receipts on the Widows’ and Orphans’ Fund, so that the fund is indebted to the Treasurer £389 14s. 3d. The annual growth of this fund leads the Committee to expect that the balance against it will next year be swept away. There has also been an increase of £353 Os. 1 Id. in the cost of publica­ tions. This is accounted for by the issue of 5,000 copies of Dr. Underhill’s little work, entitled “ Christian Missions in the East and West,” and the enlargement and increased circulation of the Missionary Herald. The diffusion of missionary information is essential to the cultivation of the missionary spirit, and the Committee have no doubt that the growing interest o f our people, evinced in their contributions, is largely owing to the measures they have adopted for this purpose. This review of the year is calculated to awaken our deepest gratitude to the Master, whom we endeavour, however feebly, to serve. The hopes with which the year began have been more than realised, and, through the good hand of God upon us, the field everywhere presents the most pleasing prospects. Two of the oldest associates of the Committee the Rev. J. H . Hinton, M .A., and the Rev. Dr. Leechman, have been called to their reward on high; others are nearing the river which divides the battle-plain from the scene of their future joy ; but amidst all changes and vicissitudes the kingdom of our Lord makes progress, and we think we see the dawn o f the day in which the Sun of Righteousness shall brighten every land with its beams, and all nations become subject to the Prince of Peace.

N o t e .— In consequence of the particulars of Contributions from many of the Auxiliaries not reaching the Mission House until after the close and audit of this- Balance Sheet, it will be found that the totals of some of the Special Funds do not exactly agree with the details of the printed lists. Treasurers, Secretaries of Auxilia-ies, and all Friends remitting moneys are therefore very earnestly requested to supply f u l l particulars at the time o f remittance, so that corrective entries may be dispensed with, and the Missionaries may be at once advised of all special con­ tributions sent for their use.
