As the kind intentions of some of the deceased friends of the Society have been rendered abortive for want of correct knowledge of the law relating to Charitable Bequests, the Committee call special attention to the following directions :—

By Statute the 2 G e o . II. cap. 36, commonly called the Mortmain Act, it is enacted, Section 1, that after the 24th June, 1736, “ no manors, lands, tenements, rents, advowsons, or other hereditaments, corporeal or incorporeal, whatsoever; nor any sum or sums of money, goods, chattels, stocks in the public funds, securities for money, or any otherpersonal estate whatsoever, to be laid out or disposed of in the 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 whatso­ ever, 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 ddvered,'in the pre­ sence 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 death), and, be enrolled in His Majesty's High 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 kept for the transfer of stocks, six ealendar 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 p o s s e s s i o n for the charitable uses intended, immediately from the muking thereof; a n d b e w it 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 timq from and after the 24th June, 1736, be made in any other manner or 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 id .” Upon these enactments it may be observed:— 1st. That the Baptist Missionary Society is a Charitable Institution, within the meaning of this Act. 2ndly. That every possible interest in land, or money, goods, chattels, or stock in the funds, to be laid out in land, is embraced by the statute ; aud though it does not absolutely forbid the giving of land, or interest in land, or money to be laid out in land for charitable purposes, it positively requires that all such gifts and grants shall be made in the manner, and with the forms prescribed by the statute, and (amongst other things) shall take immediate and irrevocable effect, for the periods of time named in the statute, before the death of the donor. 3rdly. That all Leases, Mortgages, Rents, Annuites arising out of, or charged on, Land, Mines, Quarries, and the like, Canal and Railway Shares, are all interests in land within the statute, and cannot be left by Will-for any charitable purpose. And though a Testator were most positively to direct that the land, or interest in land, should be sold, and the money only applied to the charitable purpose, it would still bo void; for, by reason of a well-known rule of law, when money, to arise from the sale of land, is left to a Legatee, the Legatee may elect not to have the land sold, but may take it as it is instead of the money which the sale would produce. 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 signature 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 shall subscribe the Will in the presence of the Testator ; but no Form of Attestation shall be necessary.” N.B.—W ills executed prior to the first day of January, 1838, are not affected by this a c t; but any alteration therein, or Codicil thereto, must be executed in the manner before mentioned. The following Form of BequeBt may be safely adopted by those who wish to bequeath such pro­ perty as may be left by W ill for this purpose:— FORM OF BEQUEST. I give to the Treasurers, for the time being, of the Baptist Missionary Society, the sum of pounds sterling, ( to be raised and paid out of such of my personal estate and effects as may lawfully be given by Will for this purpose) in aid of the general fund of the said Missionary Society. If any friends wish to bequeath property for Translations or schools, it is only necessaiy to say instead of the General Fund, the Translation Fund, or the School Fund. 4thly. Where benevolent persons are desirous to promote the objects of the Society, but whose property is such as cannot be left by W ill for that purpose, and who at the same time are unable to spare the annual income, the object may be readily and effectually obtained by turning the property into money, placing it in the hands of the Treasurer of the Society, and receiving a moderate interest to be agreed upon in the nature of an annuity during life. It is proper to observe, that the above restrictive statute does not extend to Scotland, Ireland, or the Colonies. COMMITTEE AND OFFICERS. 1853- 54. treasurers.

THE frontal Hating

OF THE

BAPTIST MISSIONARY SOCIETY

W A S HELD AT EXETER HALL,

On THURSDAY, April 28th, 1853.

WILLIAM BRODIE GURNEY, E sq., IN THE CHAIR.

The Rev. E. W h i t e , of Camden Town, gave out a hymn, and engaged in prayer.

■% The C h a ir m a n having addressed the Meeting, the Report of the Society’s proceedings for the past year was read by the Rev. F.

T r e s t r a il , the names of the Committee for the year ensuing were announced, and the Treasurers’ accounts presented by S. M. Peto, Esq., M .P.

The Meeting was subsequently addressed by the following gentle­ men :— Revs. G e o . P e a r c e , Missionary from Calcutta; Dr. H o b y , of

London; Mr. Alderman W i r e , of London; Rev. Dr. Duff, of Cal­ cutta ; Rev. Dr. B e a u m o n t , of Bristol: and Rev. H . S. B r o w n , of Liverpool. ( See Missionary Herald for June).

The Revs. E. H u l l , of Blockley, and J. P r i c e , of Montacute, also conducted the devotions of the assembly.

In the course of the Meeting various donations and additional sub­ scriptions were announced towards the augmentation of the Mission in India; also the donation of £1800, by an old friend of the »Society, to extinguish the debt. REPORT

T h e revolutions of years, while they bring with them the anniversaries of our missionary institutions, at the same time hasten us onward to the period when He, whose years endure “throughout all generations,” shall declare the mysteries of His working, and fully accomplish the purposes of His dealings with the church and in the world. The course of the Baptist Missionary Society during the more than sixty years of its existence, bears upon it many proofs of the divine care of the Head of the Church. Even its vicissitudes and perils have had their lesson and their use. They at least teach us to trust in Him with unhesitating faith ; for practically it has been found that all things, whether prosperous or adverse, work together for good: for the Master whom we serve is head over all things to the church.

THE MISSIONARIES.

In presenting their Annual Report, the Committee give the first place to those changes in the mission band which it has pleased Divine Providence to make. The chiefest of those changes is that which death has wrought. Two of the missionaries have fallen asleep in the year past — one, aged and full of years, forty-two of which were spent in his Master’s service in India, and the bearer of a name revered and held in honour by all the Mends of missions in the E ast;—the other, in the prime of his missionary life, amid many tokens of the upspringing of that seed which for seven years he had diligently sown in the isle of Trinidad. The Rev. W. Carey of Cutwa, the second son of Dr. Carey, and the Rev. Geo. Cowren of Savanna Grande, can no more be numbered as helpers together with us in the work of the Lord. In some instances the families of missionaries have been sorely tried with affliction and the loss of children, while three, the Rev. J. Parry of Jessore, the Rev. J. Johannes of Chittagong, and the Rev. W. H. Webley of Jacmel, weep over the graves of beloved wives. r The personal strength of the mission has further been reduced by the reluctant return of the Rev. J. Wheeler from Fernando Po, and the Rev. D. Webley from Haiti. A too brief period sufficed to show that neither health nor strength could sustain the scorching heat of a tropical clime. The increased efficiency to those missions the Committee had hoped to give, has therefore for the time been frustrated, an event the more painful, since no one has as yet been found to occupy the vacant posts. The Rev. George Pearce and Mrs. Pearce of Calcutta, have also been compelled to revisit their native land, where a temporary sojourn, it is hoped, will enable them to B 2 SIXTY-FIRST r e po r t . [1853. return with renewed strength to their anxious flock. Towards the end of the year the Committee received from the Rev. T. C. Page of Madras the expression of his desire to be regarded solely as the pastor of the TVngliah church, and not as a missionary of the Society. To this wish they reluctantly deemed it right to accede. On the other hand, the Committee have to rejoice in the safe arrival of the Rev. J. Makepeace in Agra. The Rev. J. Trafford has also entered on his important duties at Serampore, while the Committee at a recent meeting had the pleasure of accepting with hope­ fulness and reliance on God’s blessing, the services of Mr. C. Carter, the senior student of Horton College, for the work of the Lord in the East.

THE BAHAMAS.

But while afflictions have thus overtaken the messengers of Christ, no less heavily have they fallen upon some of the churches committed to their care. From Jamaica, where the effects of the visitation have not yet ceased, the cholera, accompanied by that scourge of equinoctial lands, the yellow fever, took its way to the Bahamas, devastating homes, giving trophies to death of entire families, wasting villages . and towns, and removing to a better land the people of the Lord. Not less than one-eighth of the flock of Mr. Capern fell a prey to the ravages of the pestilence. The funds at the disposal of the Committee were immediately applied to the relief of the suffering congregations. Now, however, the plague is stayed, and the mis­ sionaries speak hopefully of the prospect before them. But while these shadows and clouds have crossed the scenes of the Society’s labours, the same divine hand that spread them has given spiritual blessings. A t nearly all the stations there has been an accession of numbers. In the Bahamas, if the pestilence removed a hundred persons from the communion of the saints on earth, the wholesome terror it inspired brought back repentant and weeping to the fold nearly a hundred and fifty who had wandered into the waste places of the world. If the worldliness of some, the apathy and languor of more, led to a sifting of the chaff from the wheat, so that eighty were found unfaithful to the Lord that bought them, one hundred and ninety inquirers give speedy promise of their places in the sanctuary being re-filled. Not less than ninety-five persons have been baptized in the churches from which reports have been received; the number of their members is little less than 2500. The working of the native pastorate in this mission has been folly as encouraging as could have been antici­ pated. Thirty-one churches have recognized their duty, and have chosen seven brethren to watch over them in the Lord. About 1160 members are thus placed under native pastors. They exercise all due vigilance and discri­ mination in the admission of members and in the exercise of discipliné, while much advantage has accrued to the newly baptized from their being under greater pastoral oversight. The education of the people is however lamentably deficient. Large numbers are unable to read, and depend for their knowledge of the gospel on the lips of the native pastor. In these thirty-one churches are found not more than nineteen Sunday schools, owing to the difficulty of securing teachers, and but seven day schools exist to impart the ordinary rudiments of education. 1853.] SIXTY-FIRST REPORT. 3

In this direction much lias to be done. The poverty of the people obstructs their advancement. The infertility and commercial unimportance of the productions of the soil forbid the hope of amendment for years to come. The same causes limit the provision that the churches can make for the maintenance of their teachers, and in a few cases have occasioned an unwil­ lingness to elect a pastor; some little addition to the contributions of the people has therefore been made by the Committee. It is however clearly impracti­ cable to expect these churches to maintain a European pastorate ; to use the words of Mr. Capem, “ It becomes more and more apparent that native preachers are the most fitting agencies for this field of labour.”

TRINIDAD.

In Trinidad the closing days of Mr. Cowen’s life were cheered by several additions to the church. The repellent influence of popery has been more than usually overcome. Large "numbers have f perused the numerous tracts issued from the mission press, not without a beneficial influence on their opinions and views of the gospel of Christ. Twenty-one individuals h a ^ put on the Lord Jesus. The churches have enjoyed peace, and the comforts of the Holy Spirit. Mr. Law has been particularly engaged in the erection of a house of prayer. This was rendered requisite by the inconveniences of the room, in which until now divine worship has been carried 011, and the increased numbers attending the ministry of the gospel. The foundation stone was laid by Lord Harris, the governor of the colony, on the 7th of July, amid general congratulation, and a considerable sum has already been contributed towards the cost. The diligent and zealous action of the church itself bids fair speedily to place the building entirely free from debt.

HAITI.

The past year has been a year of mourning in the mission band in Haiti. The return of Mr. D. Webley was soon followed by the necessity for the relief a change of climate could afford to Miss Harris. Shortly after her departure Mrs. W. H. Webley was removed from the scene of trial, and her bereft husband’s sorrows multiplied by the early decease of their oiily child. Thus wave upon wave rolled over the mission. On hearing of these accumulated afflictions, Miss Harris at once volunteered to revisit the island, and to aid by her presence and counsel the fast diminishing band. Mean­ while the work of the Lord was slowly advancing. The school continued to gather from sixty to seventy Haitien youths for instruction under the care of Misa Howard and Miss Clark. Mr. Webley’s burdens were how­ ever greatly increased by the heavy pecuniary cost of the chapel and dwelling-house he has for some time been engaged in erecting. But by this time the building is completed, and he will have had the joy of occupying the first sanctuary specially erected by the Society in Haiti, for the preach­ ing of the truth as it is in Jesus. The Committee trust that all his anticipa­ tions may be realized, and that if darkness and clouds have hitherto covered this interesting field, the tizne is come for the refreshing rain from the presence of the Lord. 4 SIXTY-miST liEPOUT.

ST. DOMINGO. On the north side of the island, usually called St. Domingo, Mr. Rycroffc commenced his missionary work in the month of March, at Puerto Plat. A email church of sixteen persons was soon collected, consisting for the most part of individuals who had formerly been members of churches in other islands ; and a somewhat commodious room, furnished by public contributions, was opened for divine worship. Two villages in the country have also received the visits of the missionary, where a small number of people are found to worship God, and hold forth the light of truth to the extent of their ability. The priests of Rome have however taken alarm. The missionary and the gospel he proclaims are publicly denounced, and the government in­ cited to expel him from the country. But he is not without defenders among the Roman Catholic population, while others inquire secretly after the truth which fear deters them from hearing openly. The missionary is -welcomed at their homes. He is listened to by the wayside. Scriptures and tracts find their way where he cannot come, giving the hope that the grotesque itnd debasing mixture of heathenism with popery, which constitutes the religion of the Dominicans, will give way to the increasing light of know­ ledge and truth.

AFRICA.

Notwithstanding the reduction of missionary strength that has taken place in the African mission, the blessing of God evidently rests on the enfeebled labours of the remnant. His strength is made perfect in weakness. A t all three of the stations there have been conversions, and the labours of the negro teachers rendered effectual to the salvation of many. The care of the churches has of necessity been committed to some of the converts themselves, whose labours evince no small amount of capacity and fitness for the office to which they have been called. The work of translation has been continued by Mr. Saker, and from the press at Bimbia have issued several thousands of pages of God’s word in the Isubu and Dualla tongues, together with a hymn book, a vocabulary, and some elementary books for the instruction of the people. Besides his evangelic ministrations Mr. Saker has done somewhat for the civilization of the people whom God has gathered around him. A. sugar and a cotton plantation, a lime kiln, a brick field, the gathering of palm oil for the purposes of trade, himself taking the lead, and by personal toil instructing the people in the processes of manufacture and cultivation, while they evidence the diligence, the zeal, the far-sightedness of the missionary, at the same time are a prelude to the elevation of the degraded races of Africa and the extirpation of the slave-trade from her shores. The chapel at Clarence, which last year it was announced had been levelled to the ground by a destructive tornado, has been nearly rebuilt under Mr. Saker’s direction ; but this time of brick, the produce of native industry ; while at Cameroons a substantial and more enduring dwelling for the missionary family has been erected of the same material. The introduc­ tion of the gospel among the tribes on the Cameroons river has had, 1853.] SIXTY-FIRST REPORT.

however, some opposition to encounter. More than once the lives of the people attendant on the preaching of the word have been threatened with violence. Yet the congregations have been re-gathered. The people listen with intense interest to the word of life. From their labours in the brick field and plantation the workers eagerly hasten to the school. Men and boys, women and girls, meet in the same classes to acquire the art of reading. “ The mission station,” says Mr. Saker, ‘‘ is a scene of busy activity from early morn to night. Labour, lessons, singing and prayer, is the life at Cameroons.”

FRANCE.

Although in some parts of France the civil authorities, at the instigation of the Romish priesthood, have interfered with the public worship of God, and in some instances the servants of Christ have been called to endure imprisonment for the truth’s sake, our missionary in Brittany has been permitted to pursue his way without interruption. The meetings both in Morlaix and in the villages have been maintained, and the public means of grace continued. The labours of the colporteurs have however been stayed. As liberty was refused him to distribute the scriptures, M. Humbert lias gone to Brest to a more open field. The authorization of M. Omnes, the Breton colporteur, became useless in June last, in consequence of the publication of a decree requiring all books to be stamped at the prefecture previous to their being offered for sale. For two mouths his bibles and testa­ ments remained in the hands of the authorities, and it was only in the beginning of the present year that they released them and permitted the sale to recommence. Among the first purchasers were two of the officers them­ selves. Some interesting cases of conversion have cheered the missionary. Many efforts were made, some of them of a most objectionable kind, to deter the converts from making confession of Christ. But by divine grace they have remained steadfast. Their faith and patience have awakened much inquiry. i:We are more and more convinced,” says Mr. Jenkins, "that this is the beginning of a good work that will extend itself.” One of the new con­ verts is about to undertake the interesting work of prosecuting the itinerary school; in which about fifty individuals, of all ages, have hitherto been under instruction.

JAMAICA.

Before passing on to the eastern missions of the Society, it is neces­ sary briefly to notice the institution at Calabar. With great satisfaction the Committee refer to the valuable and effective labours of the esteemed president, the Rev. D. J. East. During the year six students have been under instruction. Two have entered on the work of the ministry. The examination at the close of the session appears to have given unqualified pleasure to the several brethren who were present. They speak in the highest terms of the progress made by the students, and of the general management of the institution, at the same time pledging themselves to its hearty support. Of the seventeen students who have left its walls, the Committee rejoice to 6 SIXTY-FIKST REP OUT. [1853. learn that two only have returned to their secular callings ; two others have died. The rest are directly engaged, either as pastors or teachers, or both combined, in the ministry of the word, and with very encouraging success, bearing testimony of the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ to their fellow countrymen. The solicitude of the Committee has often been directed during the year to various matters connected with the welfare of the cause of Christ in Jamaica. The contributions to the Special Fund, now nearly exhausted, have enabled them to aid several brethren to pay a temporary and invigorating visit to their native land, while the Cholera Fund has continued to relieve the necessities of others, both among the pastors and people, who still suffer from the effects of the ravages of pestilence and disease, the last of which, indeed, is not entirely subdued. Death too has been busy among the ranks of the pastors, and some have been constrained from^severe affliction to take a final leave of the scene of so much suffering and toil. The affairs of the Widows and Orphans’ Fund of Jamaica have had the fullest deliberation ; and the Committee are happy to say that the parties interested, with no exception known to them, have concurred in the arrangements proposed for its settlement. Those who have left the mission will receive the amount of their contributions to the fund ; while the widows and families of those who were formerly missionaries of the Society will be entitled to an annuity of £20 per annum, payable from the general Widows and Orphans’ Fund of the Society. The settlement of this long-pending and difficult matter will be a cause of rejoicing to all the friends of the Society.

EAST INDIES.

The past year has been an encouraging one in the eastern missions of the Society. Whether regard be had to the additions made to the churches, or to the ’'silent but sure progress of decay in the institutions of heathenism, there is great cause for rejoicing and gratitude to Him who vouchsafes to accept and bless the work of our hands. In August it pleased God to bring to this country the Rev. P. H. Cassidy. He had previously laboured in con­ nection with another society in the district around Bombay; but being convinced of the truth of believers’ baptism, he sought to obey the Saviour’s command, and for that purpose returned to his native land. After his baptism and union to the church in John Street, and several conferences with the Committee, he has been encouraged to revisit, under the auspices of this Society, the former scene of his labours, relying on the providence of God, and the goodwill of the natives to whom he will preach the word, for the needful provision for his support. The Committee rejoice at the prospect of con­ veying, by means of Mr. Cassidy’s self-denying ministry, the gospel to the Mahratta race, and are now anxiously awaiting the tidings of his arrival at his destination.

manifest. Early in the year Mr. Davis proceeded to the station at Kandy, Mr. Allen continuing to labour in Colombo at the Pettah Chapel, and to watch over the jungle churches in its vicinity. To the Burghers, Portuguese, Singhalese, and Tamils the brethren have addressed their evangelic message, and a most cordial welcome liaB been given to the missionary when visiting the plantations and estates. The churches are for the most part dependent on the instructions received from the native pastors, whose abilities, discrimina­ tion, and devotedness, have fully been brought out in the exercise of their pastoral duties. Much care has been exercised in the admission of the candi­ dates to baptism, nearly the whole of whom have, as inquirers, for some time previously been under instruction. Sixty-three persons have been united to the church of God. The school conducted by Mrs. Allen continues to maintain its usefulness and interest. One of her pupils has been baptized, and two or three others give the most pleasing tokens that a work of grace has begun. Twenty-four children are boarded, and educated in English and Singhalese, at the Institution. Mrs. Davis is also contemplating the formation of a similar school at Kandy.

INDIA.

The returns from the churches in Bengal indicate a larger spiritual blessing than has been the case for some few years, and the general aspect of affairs is full of interest and encouragement. The school operations of the missionaries have been as extensive and useful as those of former years, and it is beyond question that the constant presentation of the truth in the mission schools has paved the way in many localities for the increasing indifference of the people to the religion of their forefathers. It may be that conversions have not followed to the amount which the long continued employment of these means might lead us to expect: yet it is certain that the most intelligent and useful of the converts are those who in early life have been trained in mission schools. The most effective native preachers are of the number, and no small proportion of the people who have left the region of shadows and darkness for the light of the gospel kingdom, is indebted to native instrumentality for the blessing they have received. Of more than usual interest have been the itineracies of the missionary brethren. In company with their native assistants, large tracts of eountry have been traversed, in which they have dispersed on every side the word of the living God. The streets of Calcutta, its suburban villages, its bazars, its roadsides, have almost daily seen the messengers of peace witnessing of the love of God. Over the great districts of Birbhoom, Mymensing, Dacca, Jellalpore, Goalpara, Tipperah, and even to Assam, with the country for forty miles around Monghir, and some portions of the northern Zillahs of Bengal, the heralds of the cross have borne the banner of salvation. Even the jails were not overlooked. In Jessore the native preachers were located for a week together at some chosen and convenient spot, to receive and converse with Hindoos or Mahommedans desirous of learning more fully the way of life. A large number availed themselves of the opportunity. Particular 8 SIXTY-FIRST REPORT. [1853.

Christian doctrines, the mode of worship, the contents of the tracts and scriptures, were the frequent topics of inquiry and discussion. In Chitta­ gong and at Kalikapur the work of grace has continued to make progress, and eleven persons have been united to the body of Christ. In language like the following do the missionaries, with singular unanimity, speak of the aspect of the field they have covered with their anxious and unwearied steps. “ The heathen,” says Mr. Johannes, “ do not so generally disregard the word now. They listen with readiness and pleasure to the news of salvation, and applications are unceasingly made for scriptures and tracts, which they peruse and are profited withal.” The Eev. J. Parry observes that on several occasions, “ the natives spontaneously seek for religious instruction.” To the Eev. Mr. Bion, a Hindoo, to whom a copy of the scriptures had been given on a former tour, said, “ W e still have your books, and read them almost daily. Many of the villagers do not worship idols any more, but mind your books.” Elsewhere he heard of others who in a distant and to him inaccessible village read the scriptures diligently, had given up idolatry, and endeavoured to walk according to the gospel. Thus throughout Bengal there is displayed great eagerness to hear and to receive the word of God, everywhere is a change apparent in the tone and temper of the people with respect to the gospel of Christ. In the north west, the Agra native mission has been revived with much hope­ fulness by the Eev. J. Makepeace. Chitoura continues to present the same interesting features of Christian civilization ; while at Muttra, Mr. Phillips is making great exertions to preach the word to every creature living within its bounds. The buildings at Benares, lately occupied as a college by the government, have become the property of the Society, in a manner that marks the gracious hand of God. The property is situated near the native city, surrounded on every side by the crowded habitations and the idol temples of the Hindoos. It is desirable that the mission in this spot so devoted to idolatry and superstition should have immediate attention, and the Committee anxiously await the appearance of the men whom, in answer to the church’s prayers, the Head of the church may prepare and bid proceed to this important sphere.

TRANSLATIONS.

The itinerant labours of the missionaries are rendered greatly more efficient by the plentiful distribution of the word of God, not however carelessly given to every applicant, but responsive to the most eager expressions of desire, and with some evidence that the individuals seeking are able to peruse them. Not fewer than 34,000 copies of various parts of scripture, or entire volumes, have been issued from the Depository, while 39,000 copies in Bengali and Sanskrit have been finished at the press for further distribution. The revi­ sion of the Bengali New Testament announced last year as in progress has been completed. An octavo edition has already been published, arid the reprint of it in a smaller form, as a pocket bible for the use of the native Christians, has reached the Acts of the Apostles. The Bengali version con­ tinues at present and is likely for years to be the only one in circulation in 1853.] SIXTY-FIRST REPORT. 9

Bengal. In its revision, Mr. Wenger has kept in view in the numerous alterations he has made, the desirableness of following the original as closely as a due regard to the idiom of the Bengali language will allow, at the same time retaining the elegance stamped upon it by the late Dr. Yates. Mr. Lewis has rendered Mr. Wenger valuable assistance in this important work. In Sanskrit the second volume of the Old Testament, containing the his­ torical books from Judges to Esther inclusive, has been completed. A revised edition of Genesis with the first twenty chapters of Exodus has also been published. The Hindee gospels in the Kaithi character have been undertaken and carried through the press to John viii. by the joint labours of Mr. Leslie and Mr. Parsons of Monghir, and some little progress has also been made in printing the Hindustani version in the Roman characters.

EXTENSION OF THE MISSTOK IX INDIA.

It now remains only to speak of the measure for augmenting and cor solidating the Society’s mission in India which during the year has occupied so large a place in the deliberations of your Committee. An intimation was given in the last report that the condition of the mission in that earliest and most important sphere of the Society’s labours would have very early consideration. Accordingly, at a full meeting of the Committee in June, the secretaries gave in much detail their views of the wants of the stations, and the requirements of that part of India in particular where from the first the missionaries of the Society have been located in largest number and with the largest success. A t the request of the Committee, these statements were afterwards printed, and at their next meeting in October fully and carefully discussed. After prayer for divine guidance, the Committee unani­ mously expressed their views in the following resolutions :—

1. That in the opinion of this Committee it is in the highest degree desirable that the operations of the Society in India should be consolidated and extended. 2. That a Sub-committee be appointed to consider and report on the best means of effecting this most important object. 3. And that the papers prepared by the Secretaries be referred, together with the Reports of the Deputation to India, for consideration to the Sub-committee. 4. That the Sub-committee do consist of Revs. Dr. Angus, J. Leechman, J. Russell, H. Dowson, W . Brock, C. M. Birrell, G. H. Davis, C. Stovel, J. P. Mursell, Messrs. Allen and Pewtress, with the Treasurers and Secretaries.

By the sub-committee every part of the mission was passed in review, its necessities pondered, and every consideration weighed as to what it became the duty of the Committee to do. In January an extended report was laid before the Quarterly Meeting. The plan embraced the whole of the field occupied by the Society, and affirmed the necessity of sending forth at least twenty additional missionaries, at a probable annual cost of £5,000, in order to place on an efficient footing the stations now occupied, and in some degree to seize the present openings for the extension of Christ’s kingdom. With perfect unanimity and devout feeling, the Committee resolved on laying this large measure before the members of the Society. Trusting in the all- 10 SIXTY-FIRST REPORT. [1853. provident care of the Lord Jesus to supply the requisite means as well as the right men, they determined to go forward and, God helping them, take possession of the land in his name. Two chief objects are contemplated in the scheme, in addition to the general one of spreading yet more widely the gospel of salvation. The stations of the Society are individually weak, and for the most 'part removed by great distances from mutual co-operation. To strengthen and to con­ solidate the stations were therefore of the first importance :—-To strengthen them by additional men, that stations might no more be lost and the work of years scattered by disease or death, and the solitary and, therefore in some degree, feeble labours of the missionary be increased in efficiency:—To con­ solidate, by bringing the stations into nearer relation to each other, which can only be done by the formation of three or four new ones, unless it were resolved rather to contract our operations, and to bring into still narrower limits their already diminished sphere. But absolute necessity alone could justify such a contraction—a necessity which certainly could not be said to exist either in the state of India, or in the ability of the churches at home. No alternative was open to your Committee. It dared not recede. It had faith in the promises of God, and in the power of Christian love to souls to re-animate the faint-hearted, to quicken the cold, and to draw forth the generous zeal of the people of God. Many other considerations came in to give increased urgency to the appeal. Much as has been done for India, the destitution of the means of grace is still overwhelming. Full one half of the sixty-two millions of Bengal and the North West Provinces have no missionaries among them, while the labours of the comparatively few are almost concealed by the magnitude of the work before them. For sixteen years the Society has not increased the number of its missionaries in the East, while boundless fields have been opening on every side. Yet the labours of the past are full of encouragement. Many churches have been formed; some fifteen hundred persons have been gathered from amongst the heathen into the fold of Christ besides those who have passed into the presence of the Lord. The scriptures can be abundantly supplied in versions at once accurate and intelligible to the people. Tracts and schools can be multiplied to any extent. The political and social condition of the people is eminently favourable to missionary exertion. Even the once haughty Brahmin condescends to investigate the claims of Christianity, and is constrained to confess, that “ Hindooism is sick unto death.” It were then to dishonour the names of the revered founders of the Mission, to distrust the providence of the Master that we profess to serve, to be indifferent to the glory of the risen Redeemer, the Lord of all, to be deaf to the cry of the perishing, to be more mindful of our own things than those of Jesus Christ, if at this juncture, with so bright a prospect of speedy triumph in view, your Committee had failed to confront the necessity, and to summon the churches of Christ to the help of the Lord.

FINANCES. In their last year’s report the Committee had to state a balance due to the treasurers of £4723 5s. 8d. The receipts for this year for general purposes 1853.] SISTY-FIRST REPORT. 11

amount to ¿£15,114 3s. 9d. On £600 of this sum there is a small charge of £15 per annum for the life of a very aged friend. The amount received for general purposes is, therefore, £395 5s. lid . in advance of the previous year. The total receipts are somewhat less. This, however, arises from the fact that £400 more were received last year for translations, and there were besides some large special donations. The expenditure has been £500 less than the income, by which amount the debt has been still farther reduced. A very considerable reduction has been effected in all the items of home expenditure, except agency ; but an arrangement has been made which takes effect at the beginning of the present financial year, whereby a farther saving will accrue. f It may be perhaps necessary to say a word or two in explanation of another financial arrangement which will appear in the balance sheet about to be presented by the treasurers. Two sums of £1000 each were offered to the Society some years ago on condition that certain annuities, usual in such cases, be paid to the parties during their life time. They have hitherto been treated as loans. But as the treasurers are only responsible for the annuities and not for the principal, over which the donors have no control, these sums have been carried to account. The actual debt, therefore, now due to the treasurers is £1813 Os. 5d, a sum of no great magnitude, and which a very slight effort can sweep away altogether. The Committee are of opinion that there is nothing in the fina,nHn.i condition of the Society to hinder the prosecution of their proposed effort to enlarge and consolidate the mission in India. They look back to former periods of its history, and they find that, when in the greatest pecuniary straits, or when any extension of their operations has been called for, and they have laid the case before the churches, the response has always been equal^to the demand. With this fact before them they cannot but cherish a confident hope that the present appeal will be successful too. Many churches are taking up the subject with great earnestness. It has awakened deep and general attention. Already has it excited a spirit of earnest prayer. On every side, without a dissentient voice, it has been warmly welcomed; and the generous offers of the honoured treasurers of the Society, the intimations of other esteemed friends, and the thorough organization of many churches, on a scale of far greater efficiency than heretofore, give no faltering indica­ tion that so far as pecuniary means are required they will be amply found. The proceedings of this annual meeting will, no doubt, inspire the Committee with increased confidence in the wisdom and success of the course proposed. By and by some estimate may be formed of the measure of support which will be afforded. It is clear the Committee can go only so far as the pecuniary contributions are increased. Donations will flow in and greatly help to meet those necessary expenses which the execution of such a project will inevitably occasion. But on regular yearly contributions can the Com­ mittee alone rely. If they increase to the extent of £5000 a year, then the whole plan may be accomplished. If they do not, then only a part of it can be. On the churches, therefore, and not on the Committee, now lies the 12 SIXTY-I’IltST REPOltT. [1853.

grave responsibility whether or not that shall be done, which all admit to be necessary, to strengthen the mission in India. Meanwhile they earnestly entreat all who take any interest in the work of saving souls, and enlarging Christ’s kingdom, to remember their dependence on the Spirit of God for success. Without His gracious influence the preaching of the cross will be in vain. Sinners may hear it, but their hearts will be unmoved. Without His presence in the churches at home, their piety and zeal will languish and decay. The Great Master has himself assured his disciples that, if they ask the Father for the gift of the Spirit, He will give it. Here then our dependence lies. Here is the source of our strength and success. Most earnestly then do the Committee press this all-important subject on the members of the Society. They beseech them to repair to the closet and the sanctuary, and there, with importunity and faith, to cry night and day to the Giver of all good, that he would graciously give them the Spirit of truth to convert the sinner, and guide and bless the church in her eflbrts to convert the world. The proposal to extend the Society’s operations beyond any previous instance, has not been the result of mere impulse. It was conceived in deep seriousness, has grown up as the result of continued prayer, consideration, and thought. The memorable saying of Carey, now the motto of all evangelic missions, can never be forgotten. As time rolls on, it acquires increased influ­ ence and power. It is now a watchword in Zion. The spirit of the maxim in which the Society began, is once more alive ; and the Committee are only following in the footsteps of their predecessors in seeking to accomplish this great plan. With increased confidence in the necessity of it, and in the zeal and piety of the churches, they again adopt as their motto, “ E x pe c t g reat THINGS FROM God ; ATTEMPT GREAT THINGS FOR Go!).”

AUXILIARY SOCIETIES IN GREAT BRITAIN.

When contributions are given specifically in aid of Translations the letter T. is placed before the sura, S. for Schools, and F. E. for Female Education. N.B. It will be found that, in some instances, the connexion of Churches in Auxiliary Societies interferes with correctness of geographical arrangement; but this cannot be avoided without inconvenience.
