A n Act of Parliament “ for the Amendment of the Laws with respect to Wills” having been passed on the 3rd day of July, 1837; which Act came into operation on the 1st day of January', 1838 ; the attention of all persons who may contemplate making bequests to the Baptist Missionary Society, is respectfully called to the follow ing Section:—

“ I V iC T O R ia :, cap. 20. sec. 0. “ And be it further enacted, That no W ill shall be valid, unless it shall be in writing, and exe cuted 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 and by his direction ; and such signature Bhall be made or acknowledged by the Testator in the presence o f two or more Witnesses present at the tame 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.—Wills executed prior to the first day of January, 1838, are not affected by the New Act ; but any alteration therein, or Codicil thereto, must be executed, in the manner before mentioned.

The Committee embrace this opportunity of introducing the following extract from a work recently published, entitled, “ Plain Directions for making Wills, & c .; by J C. Hudson, Esq., of the Legacy Duty Office,” as worthy of particular attention.

“ The Statute of 9 G eo. II. c. 3G, called the Mortmain Act, is not repealed or altered by the 1 VicTOiti/E, c. 2 6 ; and therefore legacies to charities out of real estate will still be void. If a Tes tator desire to leave legacies to charities, he must take care to make them payable, either expressly or by ordinary course of la-w, out of such personal estate as may be applied for that purpose. A bequest to a charity for a term of years, or leasehold property; or of money to arise from, or be pro duced by, the sale of land; or by the rents, profits, or other interest arising from land; or a bequest of money to be laid out in laud; or a bequest of money secured by mortgage; or a bequest of annuities charged on land, or rather rent charges ; or a bequest of money, with a direction to apply it in paying off mortgages on schools or chapels; or a bequest of money secured on parochial rates, or county rates, or turnpike tolls—is, in each case, v oid ; and even where no particular fund is pointed out in the W ill, for the payment of charitable legacies, and they are consequently a charge on the residue, and the residue consists in part of property of all or either of the kinds above specified, so much of the legacies -will become void as shall bear the same proportion to the entire legacies as the exempted property bears to the entire residue.” In all bequests of Stock there should be superadded, in case there should not be any or sufficient money in the Stock named in the W ill or Codicil to pay the legacy, that the same may be paid of the Residue of the Testator’s personal estate.

FORM OF A BEQUEST TO THE SOCIETY.

I give and bequeath to “ The Baptist Missionary Society," the sum o f Pounds Sterling, to be raised and paid, fo r the purposes o f the said Institution, out o f such part only o f my personal estate as shall not consist o f chattels real, or money secured on mortgage o f Lands or Tenements, or in any other manner affecting Lands or Tenements; fo r which Legacy the receipt o f the Treasurer fo r the time being o f the said Institution shall be a sufficient discharge to my Executors.

Those friends who wish to promote the Translation o f the Scriptures, or the exten sion o f Native Schools, may, by stating their desire, secure the application of their Contributions or Bequests to that specific object. COMMITTEE AND OFFICERS.

OP THE

BAPTIST MISSIONARY SOCIETY,

HELD AT EXETER HALL, ON THURSDAY, APRIL 25, 1844.

W il l i a m B . G u r n e y , E sq. in the Chair,—

The Rev. Jonathan W atson, of Edinburgh, having commenced the meeting with prayer, and a Report of the Society’s proceedings for the year having been read by the Secretary, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted. RESOLUTIONS. XI

On the motion of the Rev. W il l ia m B r o c k , of Norwich, seconded

by Rev. J ohn M a c l e a n , of London :

I. Resolved,— That the Report, of which an abstract has been read, be received ; and that this meeting offers its grateful acknowledgments to Almighty God for the encouraging measure of success which he continues to bestow upon the Baptist Missionary Society, and other kindred institutions : and adverts with special interest to the progress of the African Mission, and to the commencement of missionary operations in connexion with the Society in Europe and the North American colonies.”

On the motion of the Rev. G. H . D a v i s , of Bristol, seconded by J oseph T r it to n , E sq,., of London :

I I . Resolved,— That this meeting has heard with pleasure of the continued co operation of the churches in Jamaica in supporting the West African Mission; a co-operation the more generous and praiseworthy, that it has been given by churches which have had many pecuniary difficulties to contend with ; while they have nobly fulfilled their pledge to maintain the cause of religion among themselves without pecuniary aid from the Society.

On the motion of the Rev. J a m e s S p r ig g , M .A ., of Ipswich,

seconded by the Rev. Dr. W ilson, of Bombay :

I I I . Resolved,—That the thanks of this meeting are due, and are hereby presented, to the Bible Translation Society, to the American and Foreign Bible Society, and to the various friends who have aided the translations executed by the brethren in Calcutta, and that our brethren be assured of the cordial support and sympathy o f this meeting amid the difficulties and toils of their honourable and important work.

On the motion of the Rev. T. F. N e w m a n , of Shortwood, seconded

by the Rev. C a l e b M o r r is , of London:

IV . Resolved,— That this meeting, while dwelling with satisfaction on the finan cial state o f the Society, at the same time solemnly recognizes the obligation which rests upon its members to make increased exertions, so as to enable the Committee to meet the claims of old stations, and to carry on missionary work in those new districts which are now brought within the sphere of the Society’s operations.”

On the motion of S a m u e l M . P eto, E sq., of London, seconded by the Rev. D. R . S te p h e n , of Newport, and supported by T h om as T hom pson, E sq., of Poundsford P a r k :

V . Resolved,— That the cordial thanks o f the Society are due and are hereby pre sented to the Committee, to W . B. Gurney, Esq., and to the Rev. Joseph Angus, for the services they have severally rendered to the Society in the management of its affairs during the past year: also to the Auxiliary and Juvenile Societies, for their successful efforts on behalf of the funds of the Institution— efforts in which they are entreated to continue and abound. REPORT.

T h e Committee of the Baptist Missionary Society have a pleasing duty to perform in presenting to the friends of the Society, and of Christian missions at large, a Report of its proceedings during the past year. The enlargement of the field of the Society’s operations, which now includes Europe and our colonies,— the forma tion of new stations,— the increase in the number of the agents employed,— the careful expenditure of the contributions of the Jubilee fund so as to promote most effectually the great objects of the Society, have combined to render the last year a season of more than ordinary interest and anxiety;— an anxiety, however, relieved and rewarded by evident indications that their plans and labours have been sanctioned by divine authority, and made effectual in promoting to an encouraging degree the grand object contemplated in the efforts, and prayed for in the supplications, of the Christian church. In giving their best attention to the concerns of the Society, involving as they do much responsibility to God and to his church, the Committee have been encouraged by the conviction that they were supported not only by the contributions but by the prayers of a considerable portion of the Christian public; — that the missionaries connected with the Society are pursuing B 2 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

their object with undaunted courage and holy faithfulness; and more especially by the conviction that the efforts of this and similar institutions form part of an instrumentality which is divinely appointed and graciously accepted as the means of accomplishing the redeeming purpose of our common Lord.

The Committee have already referred to the increased number of agents who have gone forth to fields of labour during the last year. It may not be uninteresting to give the names of these brethren and of the stations to which they have gone. Four brethren and their wives have returned to the field of missionary labour after temporary absence,— Dr. Prince, Rev. Joseph Merrick, and Rev. John Clarke, to Africa; and Rev. J. M . Phillippo, who is now engaged in visiting various West Indian Islands, to examine and report on the openings which may be presented in them for new stations. To these may be added Rev. R. Williams, of Agra, the expenses of whose return to this country have been kindly borne by his church and friends. Seven brethren have been sent out as missionaries to occupy important posts of usefulness,— Mr. Saker and Mr. Alexander Fuller to Africa; Rev. W . H. Denham to Calcutta; Rev. James Hume, Rev. G. P. Evans, and Mr. Teall, to Jamaica ; and Rev.

J. M . Cramp, m . a ., as Theological Tutor, to Montreal. Five teachers and three female teachers have also been sent by the Society in the “ Chilmark” from Jamaica to Africa. Several members of the churches in Jamaica have also gone as settlers by the same vessel. Two missionaries have also been taken upon the funds of the Society who were already labouring in the missionary field,— Rev. W . H. Landon, in North America, a missionary to the Indians ; and Rev. J. Jenkins, in Brittany, lately supported by churches in Wales as a missionary to the Bretons. Six brethren have been accepted who have not yet left for their spheres of labour,— Messrs. Thompson and Milbourne, and Mr. Newbegin, surgeon, now in Jamaica, for Africa; Rev. Jonathan Makepeace for Northern India; Rev. Jacob Davies 1844.] INDIA. 3

for Ceylon; and Rev. John Jones for Brittany ; while the Com mittee are pledged to send out additional labourers to Canada and to other parts of the world, including more especially destitute West Indian Islands.

During the last year, therefore, twenty-three missionaries and teachers have been added to the list of the agents of the Society, and twenty-one sent out. Including female missionaries, the total number of additional agents is thirty-nine. Since the commencement of the Society there have been sent out or accepted one hundred and ninety-two missionaries, about one half of whom are still permitted to aid the mission cause in foreign lands.

On the other hand the Committee have had to mourn over the disappointment of their hopes in the death of two of their brethren— Rev. O. J. Birt, on his passage to Colombo, and Rev. W - Nash of Jamaica. They have to record too the removal by death during the past year of Mr. William Cozens, a generous and devoted member of the Committee. The brethren in Calcutta have also had to suffer disappointment in the sudden death of a native Christian, whose ministrations of piety gave promise of much future usefulness.* Over all these painful bereavements the Committee desire to say, in the language of faith and humility, “ Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight.” “ Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.”

INDIA.

I n d i a is the first field of labour to which the Committee have been in the habit of referring in previous reports. They adhere to this order, and begin as usual with T ranslations .

SCRIPTURES PRINTED.

In this department of labour they have to report that though no new translation has been commenced, those begun at a pre vious period have been continued, and some of them completed. In the Sanscrit a new edition of each of the Gospels and of the Acts, 2,500 copies, and of the Gospels and Acts together, 1,500 copies, has been completed, and the version of the Old Testa ment prepared in manuscript to the end of the Pentateuch. A new edition of the Psalms will be immediately put to press, to be followed by an edition of Isaiah and Daniel; after which it is proposed to commence an edition of the whole Bible in this language, an undertaking the importance of which it is hardly possible to overrate. The Hindi Testament has just been finished; the edition printed consisting of 1,000 copies. In the Bengali language the third part of the Old Testament, containing Job, the Psalms, and the writings of Solomon, has been published. The printing of the prophetical books has advanced to the end of Jeremiah, and the hope is entertained that the entire Old Testament will appear in May or June. O f the new editions of the Psalms and Proverbs, mentioned in the last Report, that of the Psalms, 5,000 copies, has been com pleted, the Proverbs are in hand, and will be ready in a few weeks. O f the gospel of Luke an edition of 12,000 copies, of the Acts, one of 5,000 copies, and of Luke and Acts together one of 3,000 copies have been printed; and an edition of John, to consist of 15,000 copies, has been commenced. In Hindustani 4,000 copies of the gospel by Matthew, in the Arabic character, have been printed; and large editions of the whole New Testament and of parts of it, both in the Arabic and Persian characters, are in the press. Lastly, of the Armenian Testament two editions are being carried through the press simultaneously, by Rev. C. C. Aratoon, one of them (1,260 copies) in the ancient, the other (1,000 copies) in the modern Armenian language. Both of 1844.] INDIA. 5 them contain marginal references to parallel passages. The ancient Armenian Testament has advanced as far as the middle, and the modern as far as the end of Acts. The whole number of volumes, the printing of which has been completed during the year, amounts to 45,000, while the works in hand amount to 47,760 more. The following compendium will best show the present state of these operations :

SCRIPTURES DISTRIBUTED.

The distribution has kept pace with the preparation of these sacred books, and equalled or rather exceeded the distribution of any previous year. In all, there have been sent out of the Depository 47,247 volumes. These, added to previous distribu tions, make a total of 230,837 volumes, containing larger or smaller portions of the sacred scriptures sent forth in connexion with the Baptist Missionary Society since 1831. For this de vout thanks are due to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who of his abundant mercy has enabled his servants to do something, though, alas! when compared with the mag nitude of the work yet to be accomplished, little towards sup plying the myriads of India with the word of God. It may not be uninteresting to add a list of the stations among which this large number has been distributed. Most of them have been distributed by the missionaries of the Society; though grants have been made to esteemed mis sionaries belonging to other sections of the Christian church, applications from whom have been peculiarly gratifying as they have afforded opportunities of reciprocating kind and Christian feelings, and of contributing to aid their labours in diffusing among the people of their respective charges a knowledge of the oracles of life.

These operations in translating, printing, and distributing the sacred scriptures have been supported by the American and Foreign Bible Society, the Bible Translation Society, and by various friends in this country. Towards the translation of the Old Testament into Sanscrit, £500 have been received from the Bible Translation Society, and about £250 from other friends, principally through Rev. J. M . Daniell of Ramsgate: £ 7 5 0 are still needed to complete this important work. O f the great good which these copies of the Bible are calcu lated with the blessing of God to produce, a striking instance occurred recently in India. An intelligent and learned Brahmin of Benares had occasion some little time since to go down to Calcutta. On his way he called at Mirzapore^ where one of the brethren of the London Missionary Society gave him a copy of Dr. Yates’s version of the New Tes tament in Sanscrit. The pundit, to beguile his weary hours in 8 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844

the boat, read the Testament, and was convinced of its divine authority. On his arrival at Calcutta, he was directed to the house of an agent of the Church Missionary Society, and had repeated conversations with him on the subject of religion, from wrhich the missionary gathered, that he was not only a sincere inquirer, but a subject of divine grace. He has since connected himself with the cause of Christ in his native city. How beau tiful this unintentional harmonious co-operation of three de nominations in the conversion of this man ! The Testament, translated by a Baptist, given away by an Independent, and explained by an Episcopalian, proved the means of leading him to Christ. “ This incident will also show (adds our corres pondent) how important it is to have a Sanscrit translation. The Brahmin would have declined accepting, or at least would not have perused, a Testament in the common tongue.”

O f the general state of the mission in India, the Committee are thankful in being able to give an encouraging account. In Calcutta, the eight churches contain 454 members, of whom 270 are natives. The baptisms during the year have amounted to 32— all natives, with the exception of three. The number of schools in Calcutta and the neighbourhood is 14, and of scholars 954, being an increase of 105. In various parts of Northern India there are sixteen churches; 69 persons have been baptized; the total number of members being 465. The number of schools is 20, with an average at tendance of 673 scholars, an increase of about fifty, as compared with the accounts of 1842. In Ceylon, 76 persons have been added to the churches, making the total number of members 530. There are also 21 native preachers, and 40 schools, with 1,257 children. On the whole, therefore, the success of the mission throughout India is such as claims our gratitude and praise:— 177 persons have been added to the churches on a profession of their faith; the total number of members being 1,449. The number of schools is 74, and of children taught in them 2,884, being an increase o f 272. 1844.] INDIA. 9

The best attention of the Committee has been given, during the year, to obtain a theological tutor for Serampore, who may take the guidance and training of young converts for the work of the Christian ministry in India. The Committee are sorry that the.ir efforts have not as yet been attended with success.

The association, which was formed last year in Bengal, con tinues to promote union and sympathy among the brethren. Its first meetings began with earnest and united prayer: and perhaps it would not be wrong to ascribe to this spirit, under God, the larger measure of success with which the churches in India have been favoured since the last Report. It is certain that a spirit of love and prayer is the earnest and preparation of enlarged success.

In the important work of consolidating and strengthening the stations of the Society in northern India much less has been done than the Committee could wish. Two new mission aries only have been accepted for that field; while one new station has been formed, and there are important openings for other stations in various districts. More than one of the mis sionaries of the Society in India plead that each zillah town should have at least one European missionary and two or three native assistants.* These zillah towns are the centres of their respective districts, and are the seat of the country magistracy and collectorships. The average population of a zillah is a million, while each is larger than an English county. The offices of the magistrates, collector, and judge, are always at tended by vast numbers of people from every part of the dis trict— a circumstance which renders these localities very im portant for the purposes of preaching and distributing the scriptures. Surely it is not too much to ask for two missionaries for a million of people.

India on British Christians, it is surely found in the large ex tension of the British power in that country, and by means which all must deplore. It is true that in the recent conquests which have secured this extension, there has been a fearful loss of life and treasure; and that, unless by the gospel we can “ re deem what has thus been expended, that life and treasure may be justly accounted, for the greater portion of it, lost in the most absolute sense. It is true also, that our enterprise is a concern of serious expenditure. W e have no way of avoiding the con fession that it seeks to impose a little more cost for India on persons to whom that country has cost too much already ; but it is an addition somewhat of the nature of an insurance for Christianity on the ultimate effect of the large expenditure past and to come. It is like something to be thrown into the water to cause that miraculously to float which were else irrecoverably lost.” “ And what a delightful thing if thus a power, never thought of by either parties in the long conflict, shall come in and take the best of the spoils, and assume, in a better sense, the dominion which so many potentates have been compelled to resign.” And how delightful too, that amidst all these tumults, amidst all these destructive competitions of transitory poten tates, (whether in India or elsewhere), and even by means of them, “ there is gradually unfolding itself a cause destined to grow to a dominion, which shall leave no province nor tribe of the earth to be contested by the rivalries of an unhallowed ambition.” It is a fact perfectly in harmony with these general reason ings— taken from what all allow to be the most original and profound discourse ever preached before the Society, that of the late lamented John Foster— that our brethren in Calcutta urge upon the Committee to keep in mind the probable openings in Scinde and other parts of northern India. They believe and hope that the conquests there are already over-ruled, and are opening the way for the gospel. 1844.] CALCUTTA. 11

DISTRIBUTION OF MISSION STRENGTH.

During the year the distribution of European missionary strength has remained much the same as at the time of the last report. The Rev. A. Leslie has accepted the invitation of the church in Circular Road Chapel, Calcutta, and has become its pastor. Dr. Yates, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Wenger, and C. C. Aratoon, devote themselves to the work of biblical translation, to which Mr. Wenger adds the charge of the church in Kalin- ga, and C. C. Aratoon the important duties of preaching to the heathen.

Mr. Evans is the pastor of the church at Lai Bazar, and the superintendent of the Benevolent Institution. Mr. Morgan continues his labours at Haurah as pastor of the church and superintendent of the school. In northern India also only one change of importance has taken place, the removal of Mr. Phillips to Muttra, where a new station has been formed under very favourable prospects. The Committee have pleasure in adding that three brethren, Mr. J. C. Page, Ram Krishna, and Jacob, have been set apart to the work of the ministry.

PREACHING TO THE NATIVES.

This important part of mission work has been carried on during the last year by Rev. C. C. Aratoon, Rev. J. C. Page, Ram Krishna, Shem, Ram Hari, and others, if not with great visible success, still with considerable encouragement. There are about half a dozen preaching stations in various parts of Calcutta, where large and attentive audiences are addressed twice or thrice in the week. There are also occasional labours in places of public resort or in private houses, among the Roman Catholic and heathen population. The brethren speak of these fields of labour as more nearly resembling the stations o f the Christian Instruction Society in this country, than strictly heathen districts. Idolatry is seldom defended. The unwilling ness of the people to receive the gospel evidently springs from a love of sin, not from any strong attachment to Hindoo super stitions. It is cheering to be able to add, that monthly meetings for prayer and conference have been established for the encourage ment of the brethren engaged in this work— meetings described as highly interesting and profitable. 1844.] CALCUTTA. 13

Under Mr. Leslie the congregation has improved considerably during the year; and although only one new member has joined the church, it is hoped that several persons are inquiring after the way of salvation. In addition to the labours connected with the church, the Rev. A. Leslie has also been regularly engaged in preaching to Hindus and Muhammadans, in the Hindi and Hindustani languages.

This church has, we are thankful to say, continued to prosper, and to enlarge its sphere of influence among the natives. It now numbers 133 members, nearly one-fourth of whom are natives. Several persons, connected with the church, have been actively employed in preaching the gospel and distributing Scriptures and tracts to Hindus, Muhammadans, and Roman Catholics. W e subjoin the following report furnished by Rev. W . W . Evans:

The close of another year of missionary labour' in India reminds me of the duty which my connexion with the Society imposes of reporting the result of my efforts to

benefit all around me in the great and responsible work o f making them acquainted vrith “ the truth as it is in Jesus.” The protection, grace, and favour of God have been most manifest in my continued health and comfort in the discharge of my various duties— “ hitherto the Lord hath helped me.” There has indeed been much in the year’s history to make me grateful, and I would again “ thank God, and take courage.” The church under my pastoral superintendence has continued to increase ; fourteen individuals having been united to us during the past year, so that our present number is 133. It is true that some have been excluded, and others are gone to their reward. The truth is forced upon me, and I gratefully record it, that I have not laboured in vain in the Lord. There are now six persons requesting admission into the church, and five o f them are candidates for baptism, A new chapel was opened at Cooley Bazar for divine worship on the 2nd November last. The school is already in operation ; a suitable teacher having been procured from our friends at Monghyr. In the schools at Kidderpore there are about sixty-five chil dren, and about eighty-five or more in that o f Alipore. The Bengali services at Lai Bazar, at Kidderpore, and in other places have been maintained by the native preachers Shem Chandra and Ramhari, assisted by Mr. J. C. Page and some o f the members of the church. The Sunday-school and library are still found useful auxiliaries to the church and congregation.

3.— Church in Kalinga— Native.

P a s t o r ...... Rev. J. W enger.

The pastor’s salary is paid by the Parent Society ; the other expenses are, for the greater part, defrayed by the church.

In the early part of the year this church sustained several losses by withdrawal or exclusion, and during the rains three of the members died in rapid succession. Among those who were thus, we trust, called to their heavenly rest, was Ganga Narayan Sil, a young man of deep piety and exemplary conduct, who had for several years been an ornament to the church and an instrument of much good. His loss was severely felt, and we are thankful to say, it has been the means of awakening the hearts of some, who before seemed indifferent to their spiritual con cerns. Three of these have lately been baptized, and one more, at least, is about to be received into the church. The congre gation on the Lord’s-day numbers about forty; on Wednesday evenings about twelve; the number of members is thirty, several of whom are absent from Calcutta. 1844.] CALCUTTA. 15

4.— Church at Intally— Native.

P a s t o r ...... Rev. G. P e a b c e . Assistant Par to r ...... Ram Krishna.

The pastors’ salary is paid by the Parent Society; the current expenses are, for the greater part, defrayed by the Auxiliary Society.

The members of this church seem for the most part to be walking stedfastly in the ways of the Lord. Seven new members were added to it during the year by baptism. The history of one of them is interesting. He received his first reli gious impressions through the medium of a tract which was given him by one of our missionaries at Chittagong, his native place. His father afterwards took him to Calcutta, where he for a time frequented the Scottish Mission’s Institution. But as he dis covered a strong inclination towards Christianity, his friends removed him to the Benevolent Institution. Finding that there also Christianity was taught, they again took the alarm, and placed him in St. Xavier’s college. Here he found no peace, being unable to approve of the Popish principles, which were forced upon his attention. He therefore began to seek a place out of the reach of Hindu society, where he might prosecute his Christian studies, and was providentially directed to Intally. The following report, from the pen of Rev. G. Pearce, will be read with interest:

The congregation has not increased in number, in consequence o f the diminution which has occurred in the number o f scholars in the Institution, as well as from the removals of several young men to occupy situations of usefulness elsewhere. Still on the whole the character of the congregation has, I conceive, improved upon that of the last year ; at present there is a greater number of adults in attendance than before, and they have also grown in intelligence. I have generally preached twice a week, and conducted a Bible class on the sabbath day, which with my other engagements is as much as my strength will admit o f ; the remaining service was supplied chiefly by our departed friend Ganga Narayan Sil, and since his death, the congregation has been in debted to Mr. Page, and our native brother Ram Krishna. In respect to these sabbath services it is pleasing to be able to say, that the word has been listened to generally with great attention, and many tokens have been given to indicate, that it was felt to be sweet arid profitable to the hearers. I may be allowed here to say, that I have often been much refreshed in the midst of my labours, by the manner in which the people have listened to my message, indeed I may say with truth, that my pulpit exercises here may be reckoned among the pleasantest periods of my life. 16 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844

The church has increased during the year; seven members have been added by bap tism, and only one lost by exclusion : no deaths have occurred : o f the seven persons that have been baptized, one was a lad of the Institution, three others were servants belonging to our establishment, and the remaining three are young men o f respectable connexions in native society: two of these came over from the Propagation Mission at Barripore. From a very careful inquiry into their previous history, and from subsequent observation o f their conduet, I feel satisfied that conscientious motives have led them to embrace Baptist principles. They have been with me now in daily intercourse for nearly twelve months.

The current expenses connected with this and the two following stations are mainly paid by the Auxiliary Society ; the Parent Society pays the salaries of the assistant missionaries, and of four native preachers.

The church at Narsingdarchoke has had many difficulties to contend with during the year; but through divine grace it has not only stood its ground, but even made some progress, and now consists of fifty-nine members. The new stations at Machkhali and Malayapur are, for the present, connected with it, and enjoy the labours of our brethren Pearce and W . Thomas. There are three small schools connected with this station, in which about seventy children are instructed.

This church has been so prospered during the year that it now again numbers nearly as many members as it did previous to the defection which took place in 1840. Most of the persons who left it then have made various overtures of peace, and would have rejoined the Baptist connexion but for their un- 1844.] CALCUTTA. 17 willingness to make the sacrifices which were required by a due regard to church discipline. The members seem to be walking in the ways of the Lord. W e append the following report, furnished by the Rev. G. Pearce:—

The people generally seem now pretty steadily attached to their ministers, and their conduct affords hope that they will continue to do so. A few persons in the early part o f the year rejoined the congregation from the deserters, but as their object was secular gain, o f which they were disappointed, they left within a few months to try their fortune once more with the other party. As we never had much opinion of them, their depar ture did not surprise us. In the month of July, another party o f more importance, constituting the leaders o f the defection, which occurred three years ago, made a serious overture to be permitted to refum to us again, and even came up to Calcutta to converse with me on the subject. I have reason to believe they were sincere in their wish to return, but as they were all in the receipt of salaries from the Propagation mission, they wanted me to propose to do something of the same kind for them, which, o f course, I could not do. They were told that they had greatly sinned, in forsaking and renouncing the church to which they belonged, and had all been excluded from membership, and that we could not receive them into the church again but on their affording evidence o f Bincere repentance: as to their being employed as Christian teachers, that was entirely out o f the question at present and for a long time to come. These terms were too hard for them, and they returned, disappointed of their object, to endure the reproaches of conscience which those inevitably feel who, with enlight ened minds, prefer present worldly gain to the good which results in obedience to the commands o f God. Most o f the persons who have been baptized and restored were carefully examined by myself prior to their reception, and in general I was much pleased with them. The spiritual knowledge which they had obtained indicated they had given considerable attention to the instruction afforded. At one o f the examinations a missionary brother from Burmah was present, who put many questions and expressed himself much gratified by their answers.

In the early part of the year this church was thrown into a state of great excitement by the sinful conduct of one of the native assistants; but his subsequent deep repentance has been a compensation for the evil, and seems to justify the hope that after having thus learnt what was in his heart, he will be c 18 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

humbled and careful in future. He has lately been restored to the communion of the church. The other native assistant was, in September last, set apart as co-pastor of the church. The following account of this church, by the Rev. G. Pearce, will be found interesting :—

Prior to the fall o f the native preacher at this place, the people o f their own accoid had commenced a monthly collection, in aid of efforts for the spread of the gospel, and in the first two months the sum o f seven rupees and six annas was contributed, which, at the low rate o f wages in this part of the country, is equal to the value of sixty days’ labour,— no inconsiderable sum. This good purpose, however, was put into abeyance in consequence o f the abovementioned lamentable event, which threw every thing into confusion for some months. Now that peace has been restored, I hope that these benevolent efforts will be resuscitated, and become productive of effects conducive to the honour of the church and the gospel it professes. Two schools are conducted at this station by a Christian teacher, one for children and youth, and the other for adults; the scholars are all from the Christian commu nity. Both schools are doing pretty well, especially the one for adults, in which there are nine individuals, who have learned to read the scriptures with considerable readi ness, and others are making good progress. This is a very pleasing fact, for among the heathen at these village-stations not one person in a hundred can read, and the pre judice against reading is so strong that, even after a person has embraced Christianity, it takes years to eradicate it. I trust, therefore that a better tide o f feeling has set in, and that Christians in these villages will soon generally feel, that it is dishonourable to them not to be able to peruse the word o f God. Although many of our people are illiterate, particularly the older members, still it is very pleasing to know that they possess a considerable amount o f scriptural knowledge. Considering the limited means they possess, I have been greatly surprised myself at the extent of their knowledge. An instance of this kind occurred during the past year. A number of the older mem bers at Khari were on a visit to me from Calcutta, when I took occasion to show them a set o f scripture prints, which I had brought out from England. As the prints were produced in succession, I was greatly surprised and delighted to find that the subject o f almost every one was easily recognized, and the different characters pointed out. This speaks not only well for the diligence o f the native preachers, in instructing the people, but also shows that the people themselves must be in the habit of conversing together on what they hear.

W e conclude our account of these four native churches with the following remarks from Mr. Pearce’s pen :—

From the preceding statements it appears that at the four stations under my super intendence twenty-four persons have been baptized during the year, and the sum total o f communicants is at present two hundred and two. As far as my knowledge extends, these have all been admitted to membership with much care and, as is our our practice, after many months o f probation. These converts are, in the judgment of charity, sincere believers in the Lord Jesus, in order to obtain salvation through his 1844.] CALCUTTA. 19

blood. I hope that if not all, yet the greater part of them, will find mercy of the Lord in the day “ when he shall come to be admired of all them that believe.”

8. Haurah and Salhiya.

Missionary nnd P a s to r ...... Rev. T . M o r ga n.

The pastor’s salary is paid by the Parent Society; the other expenses are defrayed by a local Auxiliary Society.

This important station has, under the diligent superintendence of the Rev. T. Morgan, continued to prosper. The English congregation, attending the chapel, has increased considerably. An English school has been established, and has hitherto suc ceeded beyond expectation. Mr. Morgan has been nobly supported by local pecuniary contributions, which have enabled him to carry on various important operations without drawing upon the funds either of the Parent Society or of this Auxiliary. In his labours among the heathen, Mr. Morgan has been greatly encouraged by many pleasing incidents. Interesting details are contained in the following report, kindly furnished by Mr. Morgan :—

English Church.

The number and order of services as in the last report. The congregation is more encouraging than in any former year.

Four or five of the number have expressed deep contrition and a desire to rejoin the church. W e have endeavoured to teach some of the female members to read Bengali.

Labours among the Heathen.

The following are some of the places visited by us, and the result of our labours.

Haurah.— Three individuals, o f whom one is a kayast, have paid much attention to the word, and have expressed their convictions of the truth of Christianity. Fear prevents their coming forward. Salkiya.— In this place a weaver is concerned about salvation ; he used to worship Panchanan, but now speaks of it with contempt. Two Muhammadans have expressed themselves favourable to Christianity. One o f them was influenced by his brother-in- law to give up the idea, the other is still inquiring the way. Ghausari.— One poor man, after hearing us preaching told his neighbours that Hinduism was false ; he waB beaten for his presumption, and in that condition came to c 2 2 0 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

me for a refuge, which was offered to him, but his heart foiled him, and he went hack. Barrackpore, fou r miles from Hamah, near the river.— A respectable shopkeeper reads the bible, is kind, and seems glad to see us, but he has not expressed a decided opinion. A little inland we found a tribe of shoemakers, containing about forty families; they are a despised and neglected race, and seemed surprised that I paid them any atten tion. When they found that I could address them in Bengali, men and women came to hear. However, some time must elapse before much impression can be made upon such a mass o f ignorance and superstition. Bali, fou r miles higher.— In former years the people in this place were very violent, but this year all classes pressed to hear the word, and a marked attention has taken place in their demeanour. Several brahmans cried out, “ by preaching from place to place you will triumph.” Kanau, seven miles on the Benares road.— The people are small farmers under the influence o f a Zemindar, who is an enemy to Christianity: even here we have found a friend in the person o f a worthy milkman, who tells us to preach at his door, and invites the people to come and hear. RamMssenpur.— A young man from this spot came repeatedly to our house, and said that he was convinced of the truth of Christianity, and wished to join us. A day was at last fixed for his coming to us, but he never came. I thought well of this youth, and am induced to think that his family have removed him out of the way for a time. His convictions were superinduced by our preaching and by reading Genesis. A respectable native youth, who understands English well, comes from a distance of two miles to our Bible class. Some time ago a respectable young brahman attended the Bible class for a time and determined to renounce Hinduism : when he was on his way to our house for that purpose he came in contact with an individual who told him that the bishop’s college was a good place, and there he went. But he has been to me lately and said that he is not satisfied about church government and imposition o f hands. I advised him to read the New Testament.

School.

A free school for the children o f Christian parents who possess but limited means, has been long a desideratum in Haurah. After mature and prayerful consideration we determined to open a school on our own responsibility, to give up a portion of the house for that purpose, and if we could succeed, to appeal to the public for support. After engaging a pious teacher, we opened the school on the 17th July, with nine children ; more than fifty have been registered, but, on account o f removals, the daily attendance is less. The children consist of Europeans, East Indians, Protestants, and native Christians. The original proposal was to admit girls o f every age, and boys under ten : however, a few boys above that age have been admitted. In our appeal to the inhabitants we have been successful in every instance: one native gentleman who attends our chapel subscribed ten rupees a month, and three ladies fourteen rupees a month. W e have been more than rewarded by the change that has taken place in the deportment o f Bome o f the children, and their voluntary attendance at the house of God. 1844.J CALCUTTA. 21

The following is a list o f their studies:— 1st class.— English grammar, geography, writing, arithmetic, New Testament, second reader, and the elements o f sacred music. 2nd class,— Writing, reading, arithmetic, and geography. 3d class.— Writing, and the elements of reading. 4th class.— Alphabet card. All the girls are taught plain and fancy needle work. Upon a review o f the four years of my labours here, I feel that notwithstanding our difficulties, disappointments, and the feeling of opposition, caused by close application of the pruning knife, our prospects this year are more encouraging than in any former year. I cannot close this report without recording my unfeigned thanks to the Father of mercies for constant health, and to many friends of other sections o f the Christian church, for many acts of personal kindness and assistance to carry on our operations.

This school during the last year has continued to prosper and to enjoy the confidence of the public. The daily attendance in the boys’ department has been about 200 ; in the girls’ depart ment it has been upwards of 100. The pecuniary condition of the Institution is satisfactory, the accounts for the past year showing a balance in its favour. An examination was held last week, of which this brief account was sent to the Calcutta Christian Advocate:

The attendance of those interested in this long-established Institution was more numerous than in previous years, and all expressed themselves highly gratified with the progress of the cliildren in both schools. The Rev. Dr. DuiF, and the Rev. Messrs. Leslie, Thomas, Boaz, Paterson, Morton, Brooks, Evans, Morgan, Pearce, Smith, Ewart, and others, with numerous ladies were present, and took part in the exami nation. There are 139 girls and 308 boys in the Institution; including Christian children, Hindus, Muhammadans, Parsis, Mugs, Chinese, and others. The trustees and secretary are very anxious to erect a class-room, and if possible, a house for the principal teacher, and it is hoped that both these objects may be secured during the coming year, through the increased liberality o f the public. When the condition and claims o f those who enjoy the numerous and solid benefits o f this excellent Institution are considered, it is earnestly hoped it may continue to share in the enlarged support o f all who benevolently desire the good o f the lower classes in Calcutta. 2 2 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT.

2.— Native Institution— Intally.

Superintendent . Rev. G.S m a l l . Supported chiefly by the Baptist Ladies’ Auxiliary Society.

This day-school for heathen boys has had an average attend ance, during the year, of about eighty pupils. W e regret to say that the state of the funds of this Institution has long been so low that it is doubtful whether it can be carried on much longer. The following report is from the pen of the Rev. G. S m a l l :— •

The Institution has been going on during the past year much as at the close of the preceding. On account o f the want o f funds chiefly— but also for other reasons— the Native Christian teachers have been all dismissed. It is to be hoped that a larger attendance of boys will be secured next year, and that the pecuniary means, the defi ciency of which has been a sad drawback of late, will be greatly increased. Besides the general superintendence of the school, with the particular charge o f the highest class, I had, during greater part o f the year, an interesting class of young men who met at my own house in the mornings for the reading of the English scriptures, along with Milton, Rollin’s Ancient History, &,c. Most of those who attended this class, being employed at offices or otherwise during the day, could have no other oppor tunity o f carrying on such studies under a Christian teacher. Some of them, though good English scholars, had read scarcely any part of the Bible when they joined the class ; but were deeply prejudiced and full of objections against the Christian system. In one at least, o f this class, I have reason to believe a work of grace has been com menced, and it is my prayer and hope that he as well as others, will not delay lo D g to confess his faith.

Superintendent ...... Rev. G. Peakce.

Supported by Bpecial contributions, raised partly in England, partly in India.

This is a boarding-school for Native Christian boys, designed to give to all its pupils an education which shall enable them to become intelligent and useful members of the Native Chris tian community, and also to prepare a select number for be coming schoolmasters, catechists, and native preachers. The school has numbered, upon an average, twenty-eight pupils. Those belonging to the first class were examined, late in November, by the Rev. Messrs. Yates and Wenger, as to their •1844.] CALCUTTA. 23

proficiency in the native languages, especially Bengali, and their acquaintance with the Bible and the doctrines of Chris tianity. The examination proved very satisfactory, and it is hoped, that the youths of this class will in due time become useful labourers in the Lord’s vineyard. The Rev. G. Pearce has supplied the following report of the institution :—

At the close of the last year the Institution contained forty-six lads, but as our finances fell far short of the expenditure incurred in its support, with little or no prospect o f improvement, it was deemed advisable by the brethren to decline receiving, on the re-opening o f the school, several of the youngest and most unpromising of the scholars. The school therefore re-opened at the beginning of February with twenty- eight boys only, about which number has continued through the year. It is needless here to enumerate the different books which have been read during the year, as they continue with little variation the same as mentioned in the last report; suffice it to say, that instruction has been imparted in both the English and Bengali languages with great care and diligence. The exercises which have engaged their attention have been, Scripture Reading, Scripture Doctrines, illustrated and proved from the Bible, Church History, Sermons, and Essays ; besides all this the class has read Sanscrit with the Pandit, and Hindustani with Mr. Page ; also Ancient History, and one or two other books. A short time since Dr. Yates and Mr. Wenger kindly devoted, at my request, an evening to the examination of this class, and I have reason to believe they were much gratified with the attainments which the young men had made. It is a matter of thankfulness to me to be able to say that the general deportment o f these youths has been on the whole consistent with the gospel which they profess; I hope they have been growing in grace as well as increasing in knowledge of various kinds. It is also proper to add, that the conduct of the lads generally of the institution has been, throughout the year, of a very pleasing nature, and matiy of them have evinced much serious attention to the word of God. Let us hope that the religious symptoms which appear will in many cases ripen into decided evidence of devotedness to the Lord’s service. 2nd. Female Department— South Kalinga.

At the close of last year there were eleven girls in this insti tution ; the present number, after some fluctuations, is ten. The past year has been marked by many discouragements, arising partly from the unsatisfactory conduct of one or two of the pupils, of whom better hopes had been entertained; and partly from the distressing and precarious state of the teacher’s health. Amidst such disappointments and difficulties the younger girls have nevertheless made progress in the art of 24 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

They have also continued to aid in the domestic concerns of the school, and to practise plain and useful needle-work.

Another anuual account of this station having been requested of me, I have much pleasure in sending it, though I regret to say I have not much of interest to commu nicate. Three have been added to our church. W ith the exception of one individual whom we were obliged to exclude from our communion, the general deportment o f the members o f our church has been unexceptionable. Some o f those also who had with drawn from our society, have again returned; and the rest, it is hoped, will ere long follow their example. W e have at present three Schools; one English and two Bengali Our English school, in addition to the monitors, with whose aid only I have been obliged, for several years, to conduct the school in the best manner I could, now enjoys the benefit of a well-qualified assistant, in whom I can confide, and in whose charge I can leave the school, when absent from the station. The appointment, o f an assistant, on a consi derable salary, will, o f course, increase the expenditure o f the school, but an enlarge ment o f funds, from local subscriptions and donations, it is expected, will be sufficient to meet it. One of the Bengali schools is for heathen boys, and the other is attended by Christian children only, some o f whom are orphan boarders. The average attend ance in all is about 100 children and youths, to whom sacred as well as secular know ledge is freely and diligently imparted. Our native brethren, generally accompanied by myself, have been assiduous in their 26 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844. endeavours to make known the gospel among their idolatrous countrymen, both by preaching and distribution in the villages and markets around the station, and by monthly visits to more distant places. But we have still to lament over the scanty fruits o f our labours. N o abiding impressions, no deep convictions o f the sin and danger o f idolatry, and no firm resolutions to renounce error, and embrace the truth as it is in Jesus : at least such desirable results are but too seldom apparent. Indeed, notwithstanding all that has been yet done, the spiritual condition of this country may rot inaptly be compared with the valley, which the prophet Ezekiel saw in vision. But the command of God to him, to prophesy to the dry bones and to the wind, is equally binding upon us. And if, instead of being wearied in well-doing, or feinting in prayer, we persevere in the good work o f faith and labour o f love, in which we have the plea sure of being engaged, the result will, we believe, indue time, be no less wonderful. And though we should not be permitted to reap much of the glorious harvest ourselves (for one soweth and another reapeth), our successors doubtless will. These, they who sow, and those who reap, shall rejoice together.

3. MONGHIR.

Missionaries .... Rev. J. L a w r e n c e , R e v . J. P arson s. Native Preachers . . Nayanslkh, Haridas, Sbdin.

W e would bless the Lord, says Mr. Parsons, on a review of the past year that he has abounded in goodness towards us, though we have been called also to feel his rod in bereaving us of some beloved and valuable members. The first week in May was one of peculiar solemnity to our little community. On the last day o f April, the aged mother of our native preacher had entered calmly into her rest amidst the sympathies and admira tion of us all, as we witnessed the triumphs of grace in her sickness and death, and during that week two more were called away in the vigor of manhood, leaving two sor rowing widows, both members o f the church, and also bereaved children. It was a voice from the Lord, and I do trust it was not unheard, but productive o f solemnity in the minds o f all. A mournful gratitude is mingled also with the death of another of our members. He was advanced in life, and his walk had been somewhat unsteady, yet we all loved our brother, for his knowledge o f the scripture, and, at times, his deep experimental conversation endeared him much to our heart. Some inward tempta tions had led him away from the station; but, to use his own words, “ the Lord flogged him every step o f the way back,” and brought him to sustain the increasing infirmities o f his last illness, and breathe out his life amidst brethren who could sympathize with him, and present the consolations o f the gospel at the last trying hour. Those who visited his bedside saw clearly the gracious dealings of the Lord with his soul. He was first melted into the deepest contrition, and even tried with doubts as to his sincerity, and then building afresh on Christ alone, his spirit was raised up from its sorrows into a calm repose in the Redeemer, and expectation of 1844.] NORTHERN INDIA. 27 glory. His last end was truly peaceful. Not long before bis death he looked up and said, “ Oh, what shall I see soon ?” Then having wished two brethren good-bye, he laid his head down on the pillow, saying, “ I want a good sleep,” and in a few minutes truly he slept in Jesus, and oh ! what a calm joy mingled with the grief with which we viewed our departing brother. W e had seen the triumph of our faith over the last foe. Adored be the Giver o f all mercies that we have not only seen some enter the world of victory in triumph and peace, but also some put on the armour of warfare and among them many in their youthful days. On the 1st of March, four natives made a public profession of their faith, one o f whom had just before, by divine grace, taken joyfully the spoiling o f much of his goods, the loss of his wife, who refused to continue with him, and the trial o f cruel mockings, accounting it both an honour and a pleasure to sutfer shame for the name of Christ. They were baptized in the Ganges, at a gh&t much frequented for idolatrous purposes. The scene was solemn and im pressive, and, whether felt or not by the heathen who witnessed it, it was certainly much blest of God to renew and deepen conviction in the hearts o f some of our con gregation, so that it became in part the seed of our other gathering, which took place on the 30th o f August, when seven more were baptized, and added to our number. Besides them, an experienced and valued Swiss brother received baptism from the hands of our brother Shuj&at Ali, and is now labouring diligently here in missionary work among the natives. Our services amongst both Europeans and natives, in the chapels and bazars, have been maintained as usual, and the cold season has been improved for the purpose o f itinerating. Our church has been kept, on the whole, in peace, and some attempts of the enemy to plant roots of bitterness amongst us, have, we trust, been foiled by the sword o f the Spirit. W e hope that brotherly love and Christian devotedness have not declined, but rather grown amongst us, though there are some whose state excites anxiety and regret. Some appear to be the subjects of the Spirit’s strivings. W e are conscious of much weakness and imperfection, and o f the urgent necessity there is for the outpouring of the Spirit upon us. The state of the poor heathen around us is, especially, a source o f painful solicitude. Almost without exception they seem to be given up to obduracy and insensibility. Oh, when shall the church’s compassion, prayer, and faith, awaken the almighty arm o f God on their behalf? The two day-schools continue much as before. The small Orphan Institution or boarding school, has been given up, the missionary finding it impracticable to give them the attention their growing age needed, in connexion with more strictly mis sionary labours. Facilities having been afforded for the acquisition o f the language, an attempt is being made to prepare to renew the efforts once made by Rev. A . Leslie for the interesting Hill people who reside near Bhaugulpore. May the Lord bless us, and cause wonders of grace to be wrought amongst us in the name o f our once crucified, but now exalted L ord!

Commenced in 1811.

Mr. Beddy is daily engaged in making known the gospel to the numerous Hindus and Muhammadans, by whom he is surrounded. The Native Female Orphan Refuge is gradually increasing; it now numbers about twenty children.

5.— BENARES.

Commenced in 1817.

This ancient seat of Brahminical learning or Hindu superstition, is situated on the north bank o f the Ganges, about 430 miles N. W . from Calcutta. It includes a population o f upwards of 500,000 : but during the idolatrous festivals the concourse is almost beyond calculation: 8000 houses are said to be occupied by brahmans who receive contributions, though each has property of his own. The Muhammadans form about a tenth o f the population.

Missionary ...... Rev. W . S m i t h .

Mr. Smith, now far advanced in age, has during the year continued to carry on his labours in and around the Rome of Hindustan, amidst painful trials of various kinds. A church also exists at—

CHUÑAR.

A town and fortress in the province of Allahabad, district Jaunpur, situated on the south side o f the Ganges, about seventeen miles in a straight direction S. W . from Benares, and 433 N . W . from Calcutta.

Owing to circumstances, which it is unnecessary to state, this church is no longer connected with the Benares station. The members, however, have continued to contribute to the Mission, and to distribute tracts, chiefly in the English language. Mr. Conductor Green says concerning their movements :—

A t a church meeting, held December 11th, brother Wilks was unanimously chosen pastor, which call he has accepted. Although we can speak of no conversions or addi tions to our church during the past year, yet we trust good has been_done and is doing, 1844.] NORTHERN INDIA. 29 and that the Lord is reviving us again. In addition to the regular services in our little chapel we meet three times a week in a brother’s house in the garrison, where there are some poor reclaimed drunkards, and many others, inquiring after the way to Zion. Much good has been done by the friends and advocates of total abstinence at this station. ,

6. ALLAHABAD.

Commenced in 1814.

This ancient city, the capital o f the province, is situated at the confluence of the Jumna with the Ganges, and about 500 miles W . N. W . from Calcutta. At the junction o f these two rivers, so awfully celebrated for the destruction of human life, vast crowds, both of Hindus and Musalmans, assemble annually to bathe in the sacred waters. Formerly the government derived a considerable revenue from a tax on the pilgrims, which is now happily abolished. In 1803, the inhabitants of Allahabad, exclusive of the garrison, were estimated at 20,000 persons.

M i s s i o n a r y ...... Rev. L. M a c k in t o s h .

Native Preacher .... M a l s a h I. Mr. Mackintosh, although his course seems to be nearly run, and his afflictions are many and heavy, still continues to press forward towards the prize of our high calling. In the church lie has been severely tried by the sinful conduct of some per sons, which rendered the exclusion o f three members necessary. W e subjoin a report, from the pen of our aged brother:—

As far as consistency allows, I have brought to light suspicious matters, and by the unanimous suffrage of the church members excluded three offending members, who have left the station. Three other members o f the church also have removed. I have had only one member added this year, whom I baptized some months ago, and whom I consider only a sojourner, as he belongs to the 3rd Regiment Buffs. I have now here from fourteen to about twenty men of three companies o f the 29th H. M. Regiment (who are doing duty in the garrison here) attending my chapel twice a week; they are apparently thirsting for the means o f grace and the words o f life. During the year I have had two services on the Lord’s day— one in English and the other in Hindustani, besides the two weekly prayer*meetings with preaching. As to out-door labour, I may say that through the good hand o f God, I have been more intensely engaged (as all things are to “ work together for good ” ) from an idea that this would probably be my last year’s labour at this station, and also because the two great courts at this station Were about to be removed, so that I could no longer expect bo great an influx of people to take place here. I am glad to say that my school has been supported hitherto, although most o f our patrons and friends have left the station and gone to Agra, and some other schools are broken up. I have about the same number o f boys, twenty-five, whom I catechize on Saturdays and hear them read to me the scriptures— they all attend twice at the weekly prayer-meeting. Now in conclusion, although I cannot show in my report any 30 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

unusual revival or success by heathen coming forward to embrace Christianity and forsake caste, nevertheless I do believe that the foundation of false belief and delusion o f idolatry is greatly shaken in India, whose native inhabitants are but puny men and children, without spirit or energy, too timid to bid adieu to idolatry, and come out of it by breaking the chain o f caste, with which they are more fettered than any other land or people—but we must not cease blowing our horns, for we desire not only the shaking of Jericho’s idolatrous walls, but also their downfall.

7 .— AGRA.

Commenced in 1811— recommenced in 1834.

The capital o f the district and province o f the same name, commodiously situated on the south-west side of the Jumna, about 800 miles north-west from Calcutta. It does not appear that any enumeration of the population has ever been made; but the number o f inhabitants is probably about 60,000, and from the facility Agra affords to the commerce of Western Hindustan, this number may be expected greatly to increase.

Missionary .... Rev. R . W i l l i a m s .

Mr. Williams having repaired to Europe, for the benefit of his health, the Committee are unable, this year, to give an account of the Missionary labours carried on at this station, nor can they communicate any particulars respecting the church, except that it has continued to be prosperous and active, under the pastoral care of Mr. Greenway; and that Mr. Lish has also, in another locality, been statedly engaged in preaching the gospel. The official connexion with the Society (for the spiritual fellowship has never been inter rupted) will be resumed upon the arrival of the Rev. R. Williams, who was expected to arrive in January. The church numbers nearly sixty members. The Rev. T. Phillips, after labouring at Agra for rather more than three years, left it in the month of September last to com mence operations at—

8.— MUTTRA (MATHURA.)

A church, consisting o f four members, was formed November ]9th. The following account is from the pen of the Rev. T. Phillips:—

On Sabbath the 19th a little church was formed, the members selected me for their pastor: our articles of faith were read and subscribed to in the presence of three witnesses, members of the Agra church, and we consecrated our chapel by celebrating the ordinance of the Lord’s supper, when eight persons communed, the four members o f our church and four visitors. Knowing that God does not despise the day of small things, we hope to see this the germ of a flourishing native church. Here we erect our Ebenezer, and say, What hath God wrought. He has enabled us, two months after our arrival in this heathen city, to build and open a chapel, baptize our first convert, and form a little church. Surely this ought to be a token for good, that God will bless us yet more abundantly than we can ask or think, if we persevere in this work in humble dependence on his aid and blessing. M y report for the year is very small. For the first few months I felt much dis couraged at the loneliness o f the situation and the want of a proper field o f labour until my attention was turned to Muttra. During the hot weather and rains, I came over almost every month and sometimes oftener. A piece o f land was purchased for 200 rupees at Deeg gate o f Muttra. A large chapel, with portico and long verandah, has been built and nearly paid for. Two native Christians’ houses have been built, but are not yet paid for. T. B., formerly a Gwalior Catholic, has been baptized and admitted to our church, which has just been formed, consisting o f four members. A wide and effectual door is open in Muttra, the people are disposed to hear and receive books; and we, cheered by recent success, look forward with hope to the future. May God keep us from self-dependence, and make us wise to win souls. The plan o f our labours is, to preach seven times a week in the city, hold four services in the chapel, and visit all the melas in the neighbourhood.

9.—DILHI. Commenced in 1818. The ancient capital of the Great Mogul, and still nominally an imperial city under its own emperor, lies about 900 miles distant from Calcutta to the north-west. In the reign of Aurangzebe, the population was loosely estimated at two millions, and the ruins o f old Dilhi even now cover the plain for nearly eight miles to the south— a striking scene of desolation— though some o f the gates and mosques o f this ancient place are tolerably entire. The present city is built on two rocky eminences, sur rounded on three sides by a stone wall, of thirty feet in height, with the stream of the river Jumna on the east. Besides Hindu temples, there are above forty Muhammadan mosques in it. No regular census o f the inhabitants has ever been taken, but they are estimated at about 150,000.

Mr. Thompson has furnished the following report of his la bours, which will be found interesting. 32 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

In the early part of the year it was my happiness to labour among the multitudes o f natives who had come'to Dilhi in the suite of the rajahs and other chieftains who had attended to pay their homage to the governor-general. They have carried the written word with them to a large extent, viz. about 5000 tracts, gospels, and volumes o f the scriptures; and some few individuals have taken with them correct views and deep impressions o f divine truth, The result I leave, in humble hope, with the Lord o f the vineyard, whose eve is on every part of the field o f labour. Besides these strangers there were present at Dilhi at the same time, numerous natives of Bengal, respectable and well read babus attached to the two offices that attended here. These had not met with the scriptures in their own language for a great number o f years, and seemed at the time of their visit both to prize the boon of the Christian scriptures, and determined to examine them with attention. O f the above 5000 bookB full 500 were in Bengali. This year has been one of peculiar distress to me. Great sickness in my family and among my servants, one member lost by death—my dear son Ezekiel, a candidate for baptism and church-fellowship, my most efficient helper in the work by his writing, composition, praying and conversing with inquirers and Christian friends, and loving, amiable carriage, removed by the divine will; Devigir. Munna, long and severely ill, and now Thakur also : all these things are against me, and tend to weaken my hands: but if the Lord Jesus design to look on me, and determine to spare me yet in his vineyard, all will be well. And oh, that He would be pleased to give me some token for good, and cheer me amidst this general desolation, for his name’s sake ! In the course o f the year four persons were baptized; viz. two Europeans and two natives. The former have joined the Agra church, and one of the latter, a female, has accompanied her husband down the country, having been furnished with a certificate. The other native, Thakurdas, continues in Dilhi. Serjeant P ., baptized many years ago by me, and Drummer Joseph L., recommended by letter from the Chittagong church, have united with us this year as members. Our church now is fourteen. There have been distributed in the course of the year, in the city, among the strangers who visited it, and at the two fairs of Hurdwar and Gurhmukteshwur, 12,501 tracts, and 4198 volumes and smaller portions of the scriptures.

10.— JESSORE

Commenced in 1800.

This district, in the southern quarter o f Bengal, is estimated at 5000 square miles.

The church, although spreading over so many stations, may be considered as one. Mr. Parry has furnished the following report:

Through the aid of divine grace, we have been scattering the good seed, during the closing year, in every direction, praying in faith, and looking patiently forward for fruit. The Lord has graciously been pleased to grant a large increase to one of the churches in the south, viz. Kainmari. During this year fifteen persons have been baptized. Two sincere Christian friends have entered into their rest during the year. They were the wives of two native Christians. The native preachers bore testimony to the becoming conduct and steady profession of our dear departed sisters, who died in peace, trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ. Their fellow-Christians also testify that they •were humble, peaceable, and charitable Christians. During the time they were suffer ing from illness they were patient and resigned. Six members of the different churches in the south, were called to a trial of their faith by the death of their children. It afforded me much satisfaction to learn that they bore their affliction with much Chris tian submission. I was present at the death of one o f these infants, not quite two years old. The parents behaved as Christians ought under such an affliction. I was pleased to find them patient and resigned. I think they gave on this occasion sufficient proof of the power and influence of the gospel on their hearts. In some of the churches we have been under the painful necessity o f exercising church discipline during the year. About seven or eight have been suspended from communion. Some I had occasion to rebuke severely with good effect. These poor Christians have many frailties and deficiencies, but when we remember what they were before, we have not much ground to complain or to regard them as hypocrites. The best thing we can do is to pray fervently for them, that they may be B trong in faith, pure in heart, holy in conduct, and fervent in zeal. M y fellow-labourers, I am happy to add, have been diligently engaged in preaching to the people around the places of their respective abodes, and undertaking long journies to make known the truth. They visited during the year two or three large melas, and other populous parts o f the district, viz. Kesabpur, Gopal-ganj, Faquir-hat, Bakasphul, &c. &c. W e have some hopes of being permitted through the grace of God to establish a new sub-station between Kesabpur and Satbariya. In the latter place I am told there are seven hundred families residing, chiefly o f the Muhammadan weaver caste. A school has been already commenced at Satbariya. May the Lord build up a large flourishing church in that quarter, and gather unto himself thousands of poor lost sheep. Had all the native Christians remained in Jessore who were converted about twenty years ago, the gospel would have been much more successful in this district. I find on a reference to the church register that previous to 1823, the Christian community consisted o f two hundred and fifty-nine persons. One hundred and eleven of that D 34 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT.

number have died since and previous to 1823. The rest, one hundred and forty-eight persons, are scattered in Serampore, Mirzapur, Haurah, Barisal, Cutwa, Calcutta, &c. I believe about twenty persons out o f the above .number have gone back into their caste. There are two or three in Jessore who did so before I arrived here. About twenty persons are at present connected with the Jessore church who composed the Christian community of this place before 1823.¿ T h e total number o f members at present is one hundred and twenty-eight, of whom sixteen have been baptized during the year.

The following is Mr. Bareiro’s report:

The Church— Although we have had to rejoice on account o f the addition of three members to our number, we have had cause also for sorrow— for Satan nearly turned a man and his wife aside from God. But, being rescued in time, they have been enabled again to join the flock o f Christ, and we hope God will wipe away the guilt contracted by their fall and give them true repentance. The usual worship and ordinances have been attended to with profit by the members and stated hearers. The latter may now be classed among enquirers. In connexion with this subject I may mention something of my former girls’ schooL The youngest of the five girls, not quite eight years of age> triumphed in death, two others (sisters) seem fit to be admitted into the bosom of the church, and the third, the eldest, has already joined.

The preaching o f the word with the usual distribution of tracts, separate portions o f the Gospel and New Testaments, has been steadily continued, and in this year some new places have been visited with it. The general impression is in favour of the spread of (he truth, the common belief being that a total change in the opinions and senti ments o f men is not far distant.

Commenced in 1816.

A large town in Bengal, situated beyond the principal stream o f the Ganges, but extending, with its suburbs, six miles on the banks o f the Buri Ganga or old Ganges. 1844.] NORTHERN INDIA. 35

It is about 190 miles N.E. from Calcutta. Its population in 1801 was stated at above 200,000, but it has been since estimated as high as 300,000, there being, as has been ascertained, about 90,000 houses.

O f the disappointed hopes, the unceasing labours, and the rich consolation of the missionaries a touching account has been received in various communications :

At the commencement of the year (say our brethren) we had some pleasing, almost bright prospects of success ; but they are all clouded, and those who then gave us hopes, now give us hopes no more. Some have appeared to hear with great attention, but we cannot, alas! tell you of the conversion of one soul to God. By the extensive preaching of the gospel, and the wide circulation o f tracts and the Scriptures, many have become acquainted with Christianity, and some, we have reason to believe, from the information we sometimes obtained, are convinced o f its truth ; but none dare to make a movement. The chain of caste binds them hand and fo o t; and the fear o f man silences every tongue. The distribution of books has been very great. Tracts to the amount of 10,000 have been put into circulation, and carried, as we have reason to believe, to great distances in many directions. The number o f volumes of the Scriptures, that have been dispersed through the country, almost equals the number of tracts. The amount is, we suppose, in round numbers 8,500. Hundreds of these have been carried by our native brethren into remote parts of the country, and there dispersed ; and thousands have, no doubt, been carried by the individuals who have received them, to places where a Missionary has never been seen, nor a native preacher appeared. A little circumstance or two will show the wide circulation o f our tracts and Scriptures, and the estimation in which they are held. Two men, from different parts of the country, came at different times, to my window, and said, each using nearly the same words: “ Sir, when I left home for Dacca, several people of my village said to me : As you are going to Dacca, be sure that you bring some books home with you.” Another came and said “ Sir, I come from Comilla, where there are no books ; you must therefore give me a number, that I may give them to persons who can read.” I gave him seven or eight of different sorts. I have had many similar applications ; and in such cases, I like to be liberal^ because there is good reason to believe the books will be read. The historical books of the Old Testament are sought after by many, but the principal demand is for the New Testament. W e are in great need of more missionaries, or at least native assistants. One should, without loss o f time, be located at Narayanganj, a large trading town about ] 6 miles from Dacca. Other large towns might be mentioned, were there any hopes o f getting supplies for them. Every zillah town ought to have at least one European missionary, with two or three native assistants ; yet even then we could not say, “ There is a missionary to every county,” for the zillahs o f India are, I believe, larger than the countiee o f England.

D 2 36 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

Shall we live to see the day when this small number o f preachers will be enjoyed by India ? I fear n o t ; but good news will reach another world ; and there will be a time, when many saints, arriving from earth, will rejoice to tell us o f the accomplish ment of our wishes.

13 DINAJPUR, AND SADAMAHL.

Commenced in 1805.

Dinajpur the capital of the district o f the same name, is situated about 260 miles north o f Calcutta. Population, about 20,000.

M i s s i o n a r y ...... Rev. H . S m y l i e . Native Preacher .... Peter.

The church at Dinajpur has had serious difficulties to con tend with during the year, in consequence of the inconsistency of two of the members. Mr. Smylie however has continued his labours with great zeal and encouraging success. He preaches twice in Bengali on the Lord’s day, and conducts worship three nights in the week. Every afternoon is spent in the bazar, at which time considerable congregations are gathered together for conversation and instruction. The total addition to the church is six, and number of members twenty-one.

14.— CHITTAGONG.

Commenced in 1812.

This district, 120 miles long, by an average of 25 in width, and including above a million of inhabitants, forms the south-east extremity o f Bengal. Here the two idol atrous Bystems o f Brahma and Budh come into contact, and the chain o f caste is there fore feeble. The capital, Islamabad, is frequently called Chittagong, and there the missionaries reside. It is eight miles from the sea, on the western bank of the Kar- naphuty river, and about 340 miles east from Calcutta. The inhabitants are a mixed race Hindus, Muhammadans, and Arakanese orMaghs. The Muhammadans exceed the Hindus in the proportion o f three to two.

Native preachers, who, with their wives and families, have made a very good addition to their number. By the aid of these brethren, the dissemination of the gospel in the town, on the main road, in the huts and bazars, and among the shopkeepers, as well as at Chandgao, has been more extensive than in former times.” A school has lately been established at Chandgao. Nine members have been added to the church by baptism, and six by dismission. The total number of members being thirty.

Colombo; while Mr. Dawson has the care of the stations around Kandy. Mrs. Birt has opened a girls’ school at this latter station, which is productive of the best results. The at tendance is large and encouraging. The Institution at Colombo, for the training of Native Preachers is opened, and attended by six pious young men, who have devoted themselves to the work of the Christian ministry. The Printing-press at Kandy has been used during the year in printing tracts and school books, several thousand copies of which have been published. The committee have pleasure in stating that Mr. Davies, late student at Bradford, has been ac cepted for this station, and is expected to sail in May. Towards the expenses of the various stations, the sum of about £350 has been contributed in the island. The following is from the report of our brethren :

During the year the Society has had thirty-nine schools, containing about 1200 male and female children, who hare been gratuitously instructed in the Singhalese, Tamil, and English language. Owing to the circumstances of the case it was found requisite to discontinue the Kandy Tamil school some months since. The others still remain. The four schools mentioned in the last report as supported by four benevolent individuals in England, viz., Kotivila, Hewagama, Toomboville, and Waivalla, are still in operation. The two schools belonging to the church at New Park Street, London, and to be designated by that name, will be commenced at one of the newly-formed stations ; in the meantime, their contributions are devoted to the schools generally. The school supported by friends at Meeting House Alley, Portsea, is in active operation at the village of Hallolowa, three miles from Kandy. It contains thirty boys, chiefly Kandyans. The English girls’ school at Kandy has, since the arrival of Mrs. Birt, much improved, and now numbers forty scholars. The direct missionary labours which are connected with the public and private preaching o f the gospel, both of a stationary and itinerating character are conducted at sixteen stations, which are centres from whence the word o f God sounds abroad to the surrounding villages. These are occupied by three European and sixteen native missionaries and catechists, who in about 200 places and villages regularly preach Christ’s gospel, besides those occasional labours to which they are led in other places beyond them.

K a n d y .— By the departure o f Mr. Harris from this station, the whole o f the mission duties have been thrown upon Mr. Dawson. Still, however, the usual services have been conducted, and the village stations visited as frequently as the very numerous engagements in Kandy— including the superintendence o f the printing office — have permitted. The gospel is regularly preached three times every Lord’s day, in the Portuguese, Singhalese, and English languages. The former is conducted by a 40 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

devoted member, the two latter devolve on the resident missionary. The immense number o f Tamil coolies who meet in Kandy from the neighbouring estates, on Sundays, are not entirely neglected, though it is much regretted that labour more commensurate with their wants cannot be bestowed upon them without neglecting pre viously organized missionary work. Tracts are distributed among them, and the gospel is made known to groups reclining under the shade of trees, or assembling in the bungalow erected for their accommodation by the Agricultural Society. An attempt was made to collect a congregation of them in the chapel, and though a few were induced to attend on several occasions, it was thought more profitable to spend the time that could be devoted to them on the Lord’s day, in visiting them at their places of resort. Weekly bible classes have been commenced for the English and Singhalese parts of the congregations. At these meetings a pleasing spirit o f inquiry into the sense of the word of God is manifested, and it is trusted that these services have conduced much to the spiritual improvement o f the attendants. Besides the sabbath services and the two Bible classes, two prayer-meetings are held weekly, one in English, the other in Portuguese. During the year eight persons have been bap tized ; three o f them soldiers in the 95th European regiment. Two members have died, and two been subjected to the discipline of the church. The two presses and seven workmen engaged in the office have been constantly employed in printing tracts and school books for the mission, and executing orders for the public. The latter has gone far to defray the expenses connected with the printing-office. Besides new editions of old tracts, large editions of new ones have been issued. The demand however, from the village stations is so great that but few are left on hand, and the workmen are fully occupied. Matelle is the oldest station in the Kandy district. Service is regularly conducted in the chapel by the native missionary, and about a dozen villages are periodically visited by him and an assistant, who give their whole time to the work o f making known the gospel plan of salvation. Some opposition has been experienced by the influence o f Buddhist priests, but several instances have, notwithstanding, been mani fested of the power of truth upon the mind. Some of the monthly journals of the native labourers are full of interest, and show that they have not been negligent in duty, though no persons have during the year been added to the church. Two Rhodias, who have for some time been candidates for baptism, will be admitted to church fellowship by that ordinance on the next visit of the missionary from Kandy. Kaigalle, Dewelle, and Uluan Kandy, as well as numerous villages around each place, are assigned to the labour of a missionary brother who has spent about twenty years in the service o f the mission, and now feels the infirmities of age so much as to render the discharge o f his duties somewhat irregular, and to cause apprehensions that he will ere long be obliged to surrender his sphere of labour. There are several candidates for baptism. On a recent visit to one o f these villages where we have a school, the people, to the number o f about sixty, listened very attentively to the preaching of the word of God, but on inquiry, it was found that not a single adult could read. They said they were like people walking in darkness, and knew not whither they were going. They were too poor to invite a Buddhist priest to live in their village, and so for many years had been left to practise just those actions to which their fallen nature prompted them. They received our instruction gladly, and begged our visits to be frequently repeated. 1844.J ASIATIC ISLANDS. 41

At Gampola we have a school, and four resident members. A substantial place of worship is nearly completed, and will be opened about the first day o f the new year. A small sum is appropriated by the mission towards its erection, and the greater part raised by voluntary contribution. The schoolmaster is at present the only labourer in this station, but assistance will shortly be rendered him from Kandy. The monthly visits of the missionary from Kandy are extended to the coolies on a neighbouring coffee estate, to whom the word of life is preached, and among whom tracts are dis tributed. Triagama is supplied by a missionary brother who resides at Kandy, and preaches in the villages contiguous. A chapel which was built by the unaided efforts of the natives is now in a dilapidated state, but it is about to be repaired, when more regular services will be conducted. The people are now visited at their houses, and though great apathy pervades the minds of many, there are sufficient indications o f good to warrant the conclusion that the labour bestowed upon them has not been entirely in vain. The number of members in the stations thus far enumerated, including Kandy, is 86.

In the C olombo station considerable alterations have taken place, to which it may be expedient to refer. In September last an academy was commenced for the instruction o f pious young men, members of our churches, who are conceived to have abilities for the work of the ministry ; that by a system of theological, literary, and scientific education, they may be more qualified to preach the gospel to their own countrymen, and thus obtain that information which will meet the demand made on intellectual exertion, which the wide extension of education among the people around us renders so requisite. Six students are now in it, who, for the short time that has elapsed, have made creditable advances in their studies. In order to extend the gospel to the destitute parts o f the island, brother M'Carthy has left Colombo for Kornegalle. His place was for some months occupied by brother Ondatje, but as it was found that the academy would furnish aid by which his labours could be supplied, he has gone to an uncultivated and fearfully neglected district, to teach the natives the knowledge of the true God and only Saviour. Although the labours of tuition, by occupying a large portion of the time of the missionary in Colombo, has abridged his intinerating labours, yet, as each student is required at least once on Lord’s days, and once besides in the week, to preach the gospel in the places around, no material decrease of itinerating exertion has been felt. On the contrary, while the students are in a state of training for their future labours, the gospel is pro claimed more widely in and around Colombo than it was before. In addition to the various places mentioned in the last report, a new station has been taken up in the neglected part of Colombo, called Marandham, where a house has been rented, and service in the Portuguese language is conducted on Thursday evenings. A new place of worship is about to be built at Matakooly, a village contiguous to us, where the gospel has been for many years preached, and several of our members reside. The expense will be chiefly defrayed by contributions in the station. During the year, while in a few instances discipline has been exercised on unprofitable members, two aged friends have departed, strongly supported by the consolations of the gospel; and ten persons, eight of them Singhalese and two Portuguese, have been baptized and added to the church. There are eight candidates for baptism. Our next station includes Calany and Woragodel, at each of which places the gospel is preached every Lord’s day, and alternately once in the week. The native brother 42 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

who has been ordained to the charge o f the church there, gives the following account o f the station for the present year:— “ There are fourteen members in communion with the church; five o f them have been baptized during the year, one has entered into the rest of his Lord. There are ten candidates under trial, who expect to join the church soon. In thirteen villages the word of God is regularly preached. In addition to these there are two visited once a fortnight.’'1 The large and widely extended station, Hanwella, is, as was mentioned in the last report, carried on in three sections of labour; a distinct missionary being stationed at Hanwella, Weilgama, and Pittoompey. The same number o f schools are maintained, and besides the forty villages there mentioned, a new field of labour, between Hanwella and Ratnapora, is visited once every month by the person stationed at Pittoompey. B y this effort the word o f God is brought near to multitudes who never before heard it, and it is hoped in due time fruit will appear to God’s glory. The number o f members is sixty-seven ; viz., thirty-two at Weilgama, twenty-five at Hanwella, and ten at Pittoompey ; nine of these have been baptized during the year. The station at Byamville continues to enjoy a considerable share of prosperity. Its missionary regularly preaches once a fortnight in eleven villages, and once a month in nine others. At Kalawalgodah sabbath services are regularly maintained by a member o f the church, and the place is visited once in two months by the resident missionary. As there is a vast field o f labour around, and another of the members living near Byamville appears fitted for the work o f making the way of life known to his country men, it was determined last month to engage him to devote, besides Sundays, three whole days each week to itinerating labours. By this means, twelve fresh places are regularly entered, and the gospel proclaimed. In the course of the year sixteen have been baptized, four died, and eight excluded. There are now sixteen inquirers under instruction, previous to baptism. Our laborious missionary at Kottigahawatta, amidst considerable bodily weakness and frequent attacks of sickness, continues his zealous labours with unwearied anxiety for the glory of his Master. A statement o f many facts connected with his station will be soon sent home, drawn up in his own imperfect English, but fully exhibiting the variety and extent of his labours. The church consists of seventy-eight members; thirteen have been baptized, four excluded, and three died during the year. He has twelve candidates for baptism, and preaches regularly in ten villages, and occasionally in six others. It has been thought expedient to unite with him a Singhalese reader of the scriptures, who goes into a number of other spots, some considerably distant, and by reading and conversation exhibits the true God, and the way of salvation, to those sitting in darkness and the shadow of death. The only station which has not been personally visited by either o f the European missionaries during the year, is Matura. Its great distance, 170 miles from Kandy, and 100 from Colombo, connected with the expense o f the journey and their other varied engagements, have prevented it. But according to the statements we have received a new chapel, towards which £10 have been furnished from the society, and the remaining sum supplied in the country was opened in September last. There are thirty members belonging to the church, o f whom, since the 10th o f December, 1842, four have been baptized, one has died, and two have been excluded. There are eight candidates for baptism. In the station, ten villages have preaching once a fortnight, and seven have occasional preaching. The Hendela station includes nineteen villages and the Leper's Hospital, which are 1844.] ASIATIC ISLANDS. 43 visited by an assistant missionary stationed in the midst o f them. There four persons have been added by baptism, two have been excluded, and six have died. O f this latter class, two were lepers, who exhibited in their departing moments much o f the power of religion supporting them under the pressure of affliction and the prospects o f heaven. It is pleasing to observe that the religion o f the gospel can communicate living consolation in the deepest scenes of human woe. Our efforts in that hospital have received honourable mention in the legislative council of the island by a committee of gentlemen deputed by it to inspect its condition. The number of members in this station is thirty-four. Respecting the Toomboville station we have not to record any material alteration. The labours of the missionary who has it under his care are extended to fourteen villages, and as none have been added or taken away during the period to which this report extends, the number belonging to the church is the same as last year. Some instances of irregularity required for a time the exercise o f discipline, which appears to have produced a salutary effect. The schools at Toomboville and Waivalle, supported by two individuals in England still continue in active operation. As a distinct report was drawn up and sent to England of the Plantation Estates Mission, little needs to be said on it. Our missionary, under the inspection of brother Dawson, and aided by his advice and often by his presence, labours in the Tamil lan guage among the coolies with self-denying and assiduous diligence ; and though in con sequence of the changes which are constantly taking place by the removal and fresh accession of these labourers, it has not been found practicable to form any of them into a distinct church, many hopeful symptoms have appeared among them. There is every reason to conclude that in several instances they have carried home the tidings of what they have heard to the continent of India, whither they often return after a few months residence in this island. The station of Kal Ellya, in the Hapittegam Korle, mentioned as commencing in our last report, is still continued. The young person who occupies it labours with zeal and perseverance, but at present much fruit has not appeared. A small church has however been formed there consisting of two members of the church at Hanwella, and one who has been baptized on the spot. May the little one become a thousand. Such were the stations in existence at the end o f the last year. With gratitude to God we have to record that two new stations in populous and entirely neglected dis tricts have been commenced during the year. The first at Kornegalle, whither brother M'Carthy from Colombo is gone, and has laboured most extensively in all the country around. His journals which have been forwarded to England, show the spirit and zeal with which he has prosecuted his work. A church o f six members has already been formed, and others are expected soon to join it. No part o f the island required missionary labour more than Ratnapora, including a district of nearly 60,000 souls, without a single person to make known the word o f God. A journal kept of a visit to that place has already been sent to England. Our brother Ondatje has been labouring there, amidst varied circumstances of trial and hope. He is expected soon to return to Colombo, to take his family with him. Should the Lord spare us to the end of another year we trust our report from that spot may contain tidings causing thanksgiving to God. Such is a succinct view of our labours through the year. Much has been attempted, but very, very much more remains to be done. Other fields o f labour are opening, and 44 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

we hope that labourers and friends may be provided to go in and possess the land. W e think of Badulla and Ruanwella as places to be visited to see and determine on the propriety of occupying them. But we need aid from on high in all we have now in hand, and what we have in prospect. Our friends at home will unite with us while we pray, “ Let thy work appear unto thy servants and thy glory to their children, and let the beauty o f the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work o f our hands upon us ; yea, the work o f our hands establish thou it.”

The last report of the Society brought down the history of the African mission to the arrival in this country of Messrs. Clarke and Merrick and Dr. Prince. The hope was then ex pressed that in a few months several missionaries, with some native teachers from Jamaica, would be employed in regular mission work at Fernando Po, and the coast of the neighbour ing continent. This hope is now realized. Dr. Prince and Messrs. Merrick and Fuller reached Clarence at the beginning of September, and were welcomed with hallowed joy by Mr. Sturgeon and the people.

How your heart, as well as the hearts o f our dear friends in England, Scotland, and Wales, would have swelled with delight (says Mr. Merrick), if you had been present to hear the people express their gratitude for the arrival of the messengers o f peace and love. They spoke as if they realized the language o f the prophet, “ How beau-

tifal upon the mountains are the feet o f him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good ; that publisheth salvation ; that saith unto him, Thy God reigneth.” They welcomed us (adds Dr. Prince) with a hymn o f praise from their hearts, and with gushing tears from their eyes ; and the whole population has been in motion, exerting themselves to disembark our stores, luggage, &c., and labour with the alacrity and perseverance o f ants to bear them up the lofty cliff on which the settlement stands.

Our brethren immediately commenced operations. The school which Mr. Sturgeon’s illness had compelled him to close was re-opened, with about seventy scholars. Mr. Merrick proceeded by the first opportunity to Camaroons, where two stations were formed at the towns of King Agua and King Bell. Two pieces of land have been obtained for the erection of chapels and mission-houses. At the same time Dr. Prince started for Calabar, where he received a kind reception from the people of that place. Long ere this there is every reason to believe that Mr. Clarke and his noble band of teachers and settlers from Jamaica have reached Africa. It may be added to this account, that shortly after the arrival of our brethren at Clarence, a public missionary meeting was held, when various addresses were delivered, principally by the native members of the church, and the sum of £ 1 6 15s. col lected, which was increased on the following day to upwards of £20. The congregation at Clarence is not less than five hundred, and the number of members forty-four. The Committee have pleasure in reporting that the health of their brethren at this station was, according to the last ac counts, all that could be wished. Considering the insalubrity of the climate, this circumstance calls for peculiar thanksgiving and praise. Since the last report, the Committee have become the pro prietors of the property of the W est African Company in Fernando Po. The possession of it has enabled them to pro vide immediate accommodation for their missionaries, and has furnished buildings for schools and religious worship, while it 46 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT.

will enable the Committee to facilitate the settlement at Clarence of Christian emigrants from Jamaica.

The influence of religion in promoting the temporal welfare of the people is well illustrated in the following paragraph :

A ll are compelled to confess (says Mr. Sturgeon) that a recent change has taken place both in domestic and in public life. Many o f the parents now not only keep their houses clean, but also clothe their children ; and as several respectable houses have lately been built in Clarence, and others are in progress, the town is beginning to exhibit an improved appearance externally. Our congregations on the week evenings present a decent appearance, though for many months after our settlement here we were but too frequently disgusted on these occasions; but on Lord’s days the appearance of our people is but little inferior to the generality o f your English congregations. The gardens in our neighbourhood are in a deplorable state. I have at length succeeded in getting my own garden in compara tively good order. Arrowroot, cocoa, cabbage, sweet potatoes, pines, and water-melons, make up the greater part of its productions. Arrowroot grows well here, and by Hs cultivation much aid may be rendered to the mission. I am clearing a piece o f ground adjoining my garden, with the view of forming a small cotton plantation. For this purpose I have reared upwards of two hundred cotton-plants, and hope within the next few months to raise a still larger number.*

In connexion with this department of the missionary field, the Committee acknowledge, with many thanks, the receipt of several hundred boxes of articles of clothing, &c., for the use of their brethren at these new stations. They are all exceedingly welcome, and have already proved of very essential service. The Committee hope that in this good work their friends will continue and abound.

The Committee are much concerned to state, that though they have given unremitted attention to the subject of a vessel for Africa, they have not yet succeeded in obtaining one adapted to their purpose. The “ D ove/' which was built for this Mission, does not answer. At present négociations are pending in re ference to the matter, which the Committee have reason to hope will be brought to a satisfactory termination.

From Jamaica intelligence of a directly missionary character has been received less frequently than in previous years, though the Committee have had the pleasure of keeping up a regular business correspondence with their brethren.

The state of trade in the island, and the long continued drought, have combined to make the work of the Christian missionary, when dependent on his people, a peculiarly trying one. Our brethren, however, have struggled on in the midst of these difficulties with much self-denial, and an encouraging measure of success. The schools have suffered, and the re maining amount of debt upon their chapels has proved, in the general scarcity of money, a serious burden. It is hoped, how ever, that these difficulties will by some means or other be removed, and that the noble experiment, unexampled in the history of modern missions, of a large body of mission churches declaring themselves independent of the pecuniary support of the parent society, will be crowned with complete success.

Three years ago the churches in Jamaica sent an application to the Committee to begin a mission to Africa, promising to “ stand by them.” That mission was begun, and the pledge has been nobly fulfilled. By the “ Chilmark,” nine-and-thirty persons, in all, left Jamaica for Africa ; and while the Committee bore the expenses of the vessel, the outfit of these friends was borne, to the extent of £500, by the churches that sent them. An equal 1844.] Ja m a i c a . 51 sum, at least, lias been received from Jamaica each year since the African Mission was first established.

The Educational Institution at Calabar, which was purchased from the Jubilee Fund, was opened shortly after the last annual meeting. There are at present ten students in it, and their tutor, the Rev. Joshua Tinson, reports favourably of their piety and qualifications. In consequence of Mr. Tinson’s illness, from which however he has now recovered, less progress has been made by them in their studies than might have been wished. There is every reason to expect, however, that the report of the coming year will be more encouraging and satisfactory. The salary and expenses of the tutor, it will be remembered, are borne by the Society; the support of the students by the churches. Though our brethren are no longer dependent on the Society for their support, contributions towards their schools from friends in England will afford them material help. Several grants have been received from various Anti-Slavery societies ; from the British and Foreign School Society, and the Sunday School Union. These the brethren beg very cordially to ac knowledge.

In connexion with thirty-nine stations in Jamaica, 1881 per sons have been baptized; while from eleven others no definite report has been received. The total number of members con nected with the thirty-nine stations is 22,154; with all the churches about 34,000. The number of inquirers about 12,000. The number of scholars in the day-schools is 5981, and in the Sunday-schools, 14,036. 52 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

II. BAHAMA ISLANDS.

(For a list of Missionaries and Agents, see page 59.)

Eleven Stations— About Twenty Sub-stations— Four Missionaries— Twenty-five Native Helpers.

The numerous and important stations in the Bahamas con tinue under the care of Messrs. Capern, Littlewood, and Rycroft, who have laboured with great diligence and encou raging success. Five hundred and twenty-one have been added to the churches; while the scholars in the day schools have increased in number from a hundred and eighty-eight to four hundred and six. O f the stations in connexion with New Providence, the fol lowing yearly account has been received from Mr. Capern :

It now devolves upon me to review, briefly, the scenes and events which our heavenly Father has made to pass before us, in connexion with this station during the past year. The task is productive of both pain and pleasure, as both mercies and judgments are brought to remembrance ; and occurrences which have bound down our spirits, as well as those which have kindled hope, come again into the field of vision. W e have not, during any year o f our residence in the Bahamas, had so much sickness in the family, or so much to grieve us in the church ; yet He who does not willingly afflict or grieve the children o f men is raising up those whom we feared we should have to commit to the dark and silent grave ; and, blessed be his name, the chariot of the gospel is still moving forward, though slowly, and the cause of truth and righteousness has made some progress. Many have halted or turned aside ; but the vacancies have not only been filled up, the lines have been extended, and the prospects of future triumphs are perhaps as bright and fair, and the promise as unequivocal, as in times that are past.

R a g g e d I sl a n d .— During the year I have visited Ragged Island twice, and at my second visit saw so evidently the grace o f God, that I was constrained to thank him, and take courage. The island was one of the most debased in the colony. Drunken ness, with all its attendant abominations, was ever and anon witnessed there ; but it now promises fair to become one o f the most sober and peaceful in the colony. I was told when there last, that there were from forty to fifty reformed drunkards there. A female member of the church there, who must be at least forty years of age, said to me in December last, “ I have been, Sir, on this quay ever since I was a little girl, and have not seen during the whole of that time so much peace and order as since March last, when you paid us your first visit.” She added, “ I can now say, I have a husband, and my children have a father.” There is a church there of fifty members, thirty of whom have been baptized this year. A sabbath school has been estab lished there of twenty-seven children, to which number I expect by this time an addition has been made. A Juvenile Missionary Society has been formed in the 1844.] BAHAMAS. 55

school, in which the teachers (all of whom are young) appear to feel an interest. Nearly two-thirds of the inhabitants have pledged themselves to total abstinence. I chartered a sloop to take me ; to aid in paying which the friends gave a hundred bushels of fine salt, which we sold at Nassau for eighteen dollars (£3 15s.). The people are urgent in their requests for more frequent visits to be paid them, and it is highly desirable that they should be often seen ; but having so many other islands to visit, and their living so far distant from Nassau (nearly, if not quite, four hundred miles), we can neither comply with their requests, nor fulfil our own wishes.

To E x u m a we have been more frequently than heretofore. Here our good coloured brother Francis M ‘Donald is stationed as a native teacher. There are nine small settlements which he has to visit, and is, I have reason to believe, doing much good. At Stevenstone there has been some dispeace in the church, in consequence o f an act o f discipline ; they are now quiet, and united. I formed a total abstinence society at Stevenstone, and obtained sixty signatures, and am full of hope that it will do good to the whole island. Seven have been baptized. There are several inquirers. The sabbath scholars number 168. Members in the churches 150. Many who were excluded for their Christian misconduct are making application to be admitted again to the church.

G o v e r n o r ’s H a r b o u r , E l e u t h e r a , was visited in May last, and again in January. In May five were baptized. The necessity and importance of eminent personal holi ness, and more zealous efforts for the salvation of sinners, were urged on the attention of the church. In July our young brother William M ‘Donald opened a school there, and became an assistant leader in the congregation. In January I was rejoiced at the change that had evidently taken place. There was a day school of eighty children, many of whom could read in the Testament, and all of whom evinced much affection for their teacher. There are upwards of twenty inquirers in the congregation, all of them young people, and many o f them scholars. There was a sabbath school of ninety children. The value of temperance principles, when viewed in relation to the church of God, and their general effects on society in producing social order and domestic peace, was being felt throughout the quay.

C a t I sl a n d has been twice visited during the last ten months. A visible moral improvement is going on, though at the last visit there were some rather painful cases of discipline to be attended to. These cases, however, prove that ideas of Christian con duct and character are far more enlightened and scriptural than formerly; for what is nov. regarded with expressions of strong disapprobation, would once have been passed over, or connived at as a trifling impropriety. The leaders I believe to be worthy men ; auxious themselves to know the truth as it is in Jesus, and to teach it to others. There are five churches on the island, containing two hundred and eleven members— sixty-nine have been baptized during the year. About ninety children are in the sabbath schools.

The state o f things at R um Cay is on the whole encouraging. Forty-nine have been baptized during the year, and many now are asking the way to Zion. The Tem perance Society formed in May last has done great good on the quay, raising, or having been the means of, as I have every reason to believe, the general tone of piety. 56 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

The friends were very urgent in their requests for a schoolmaster, and with their wishes I am happy to say we have been able to comply. A good coloured brother, Samuel Kerr, is gone to reside there. The people have engaged to do what they can for his support ; but for the first year, in consequence of his family, and the uncer tainty felt as to the degree of assistance he would receive from the people, we have agreed to allow him £25. He has mw a school of sixty children, with a prospect o f an addition. Could the school be kept in a central part of the quay, the number would be more than double ; but this is impracticable ; we intend, therefore, having two day schools as soon as we can obtain means. Our brother is regarded as the appointed leader, under the direction of the missionaries at Nassau, as well as the schoolmaster; and the people seem much attached to him. I have purchased for the use o f the teacher a house, with an acre of land : this will be of course the property of the Society. The whole costs will not exceed £15 or £16, though nearly £20 worth of labour must be bestowed on the house before it can be occupied. This amount of labour the members of our churches give gratuitously. The state of things at L ong I sland is less gratifying than on most of the others ; which is to be ascribed partly to the inefficiency of the leaders, and partly to some of the planters paying their labourers for their work in rum. Two of the leaders have been set aside, and others appointed ; so that we encourage the hope, that ere long things will wear a more cheering aspect. There is one leader, Caesar Gibson, who has proved himself a truly devoted man during the year, and God has blessed his labours, and will make him, I believe, a blessing to the island in general. Fifty-two have been baptized. There are no schools to report, which I much regret. I hope, however, to have something more pleasing to state touching schools when I write again, as we have a young person training in our school at Nassau for Long Island. I visited Crooked I sland in February last, but, as my time was short, I could only go to one o f the settlements. I landed at three o’clock in the morning, and was wan dering about until near sunrise in search of a horse. Having obtained one, I set off for the people whom I wanted to see. At two o’clock, p. m., tired and sore, having been bruised and my life endangered by the falling of the horse, I reached Cripple Hill. Here I met a few persons, who had been either received or baptized by Mr. Burton. On the following morning, being Sunday, several more came ; twenty-three o f whom were formed into a church. There were upwards of forty persons present, every one o f whom pledged themselves to total abstinence. They had no chapel, but promised to buy a piece of ground and build one, and to give the property to our Society, if I would send them board and nails to make doors and window shutters. They expressed a great desire to have a school at the settlement, and promised to do all they could to support a teacher if I would send them one. Having assured them that I would endeavour to do so, and appointed some class-leaders, and urged them to form a sabbath school, I left them a little after noon, amidst mutual regrets that our interview had been so short.

At N a ssa u we have been reminded too often, and under circumstances too painful, that there is a goodness which, like the morning cloud and early dew, soon passes away. W e have excluded several for intemperance, some for other crimes, but the greater number have been set aside for quarrelling. But notwithstanding all that is painful, we dare not say that we “ fear lest we have 1844.] BAHAMAS. 57 laboured in vain.” The means of grace have been well attended, and to some we are persuaded the gospel has been a savour of life unto life. The church has increased in numbers, and many are now desirous of baptism. Brother Littlewood’s visit has been owned of God for good both in the church and sabbath-school. The day school has of late decreased, some of the boys having been dismissed as being too old for a girls’ school. Several of the children are inquirers in our classes, o f whose conversion to God we entertain a hope. In the amount of contributions we are below the previous year. But the past has been a year of general distress. There has been a want of labour, and, in consequence of drought, a want o f bread. In consequence of the drought, the very fowls and cattle have died. God is giving us great encouragement, at two o f our out-stations especially, Adelaide and Fox H ill; twenty have been baptized at the first settlement, and twenty-three at the other. They are nearly all Africans at both stations, and, from all that I know of village churches, I can solemnly declare that I do not think that throughout England two churches can be found that drink less, are more distinguished by general purity, live more in peace, or evince more brotherly love. That which gives us some annoy ance at these stations, and indeed at many on the out-islands, is the proselytizing attempts o f other denominations; but we have some confidence in the stedfastness o f our members. A t Carmichael there are a few inquirers. The Good Hope Hill settlement is well nigh broken up, and the members are gone into other churches. Thus the scene has been and is chequered. In our own minds, hopes and fears alternately predominating. W e are often cast down, but our hopes are not destroyed. Our desire, we trust, is, that God will cause us always to triumph in Christ, and make manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. W e have been during the year under great obligations to benevolent friends in England for assistance in our school efforts. Boxes and parcels have been sent us from Camberwell (at least to Mrs. Pearson); also by Miss Lane, Misses Clements, and friends at Kettering. Grants of school materials have been made us by the Sunday- school Union and the British and Foreign School Society, which have been of essential service to us. W e are much indebted to the Tract Society for a liberal grant o f tracts and library books. There are two young men with us, Africans, one of whom is desirous of returning to his country, to teli of Jesus’ love. He is very anxious to improve himself in learning, and is, I think, a truly pious youth. W e are thinking of sending him to Jamaica, when he shall have acquired a little more elementary knowledge. I should rejoice could I inform you that we had a native teacher on each of the islands, the same teacher sustaining also the character of a schoolmaster. I do not exaggerate when I say that a teacher under the direction o f the Baptist missionary or missionaries at Nassau, would command far more influence, on most of the out-islands, than a European missionary of any other denomination.

The labours of Messrs. Littlewood and Rycroft have been equally abundant. The former has been for some time at Nassau, the latter supplying his place at Grand Cay. In addition to his usual labours, Mr. Rycroft has been much 58 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

engaged in out-door preaching; and has enjoyed the blessing of God on his work.

Whilst dear brother Capem has been away, says Mr. Rycroft, I have opened three new stations for preaching in the suburbs o f Nassau; one at the west, another at the south, and a third at the east o f the town. Each o f these meetings is well attended, and promises much good. I hope I may be spared in strength to keep them up, as they rest upon me solely, whilst preaching in the open air in this country is hard work, on account o f the sun and heat. On the afternoon o f the ninth o f April, being Lord’s-day, I preached to a crowded congregation in the open air. There were present from five to six hundred souls, all o f whom behaved well, though a locality as bad as St. Giles, in London, where the worst of persons live. The congregation on this occasion was as orderly as you could wish, and seemed much pleased with the attention given to their immortal interest. Wishing to continue the feelings excited, at the close of the sermon I invited those present to the chapel, where service was about to commence. Hundreds followed us; whilst, to prevent noise and vain talk, we sung hymns on our way to the meeting house, which secured order and seriousness, and for nearly a mile, rocks, hills, and dales became vocal with the praises o f the Most High. Our meeting-house was soon filled, and proved too small to accommodate comfortably the number who had assembled. On this occasion, whilst preaching, I observed seven sailors coming up the lane, who stood and listened to the discourse, and then accompanied us to the chapel. These men, I am happy to say, still attend the chapel, and have also desired tracts. W ho can tell what God may by that day's services accomplish in those who perhaps for the first time for years came under the sound o f the gospel P I have since learned that persons who had not for ten years entered a place o f worship, are now desiring to join our classes; and that others who did not read the scriptures, were seen on the Monday morning looking into the word of God, and talking about what they had heard. Equally interesting and beneficial have the other out-door preachings proved. This we see in the revival of the people, and crowded congregations on the Lord’s-day and week day services.

By the last accounts it appears that Mr. Rycroft had visited Haiti, and received from the people there an urgent invitation to remain. The field was even then white unto the harvest; the people themselves crying “ Come over and help us.” Contributions of school materials will be exceedingly welcome to the brethren at these stations, and will materially aid them in their important work. 1844.] BAHAMAS. 59

III.—TRINIDAD.

PORT OF SPAIN ) a n d > G e o r g e C o w e n . Mrs. C o w e n . THREE OTHER STATIONS )

Four Stations . . . One Missionary— One Female Missionary. At this large and important island Mr. Cowen continues to labour with assiduity though in the midst of many discourage ments. “ Compared with the peasantry of Jamaica,” says Mr. Phil- lippo,* “ the lower classes of Trinidad are awfully demoralized, but I doubt not, by the blessing of God on the combined and in creased efforts of the different missionary societies there, this wilderness, dark, and dreary, and pestilential as it is, will blossom as the garden of the Lord. I have been much gratified by my last visit into the interior, and think the field a very important and interesting one !” One of the chief difficulties of the island arises from the pre valence of Popery among the people, combined as it often is with the worst forms of African superstition. Yet, “ through the grace and goodness of him in whose name I first commenced my labours (says Mr. Cowen), I continue until this d ay: no thing discouraged or moved; though of positive prosperity I can say but little. Several persons have during the year cheered my heart by the recitals they have made, and of whom I hope better things than that they will go back to the world.” f “ There is so much preparatory work to be performed in this benighted place, where a species of popish superstition pervades all minds, more or less, that for the present we must be content to sow, and let others reap in days to come. The distinguishing ordinance which we would enforce is here held in the highest contempt, as well as all who have obeyed it, so that we have to emerge from our present small commencement through obstacles and difficulties. But already the clouds begin to disperse. In crease the number of your missionaries if possible ; patient, faith ful, untiring, plodding characters are needed, who will reduce

Send us a French and Spanish scholar, if you can procure such, who will spend and be spent for Christ in this dark land. I feel that we must go out of the ordinary track of regular and formal ser vices for religious worship ; and boldly attack, and zealously, with love, teach from house to house, in season and out of sea son, or what do we more than others whose sole object is gain ? I am happy to inform you that my health, and that of my family continues good.”* It appears that on the whole twenty persons have been bap tized during the year : the total number of members at all the stations being fifty-one. Mr. Cowen writes with much urgency for aid towrards the establishment of schools in the many destitute districts of Trinidad ; “ As I informed you on a former occasion,” says he, “ there are some of the Mico schools, which, when discontinued by the charity, I should much like to take up. They are in localities in which we should have branch stations, and a school in connexion with each station would materially help forward the work in which we are engaged. I am about open ing a school at Corbean town, and trust that I may draw upon you for £30, as the salary of a female teacher. You will do much, very much, to further our mission here if you can assist in supporting a few schools. Indeed they are essential to the efficiency of our mission.” f The brotherly feeling expressed by the three or four mis sionaries of other societies already in the island is also en couraging. “ Missionary brethren of other societies,” says Mr. Phillippo, “ are very friendly to our objects. At a farewell meeting held in the little baptist chapel, Rev. Mr. Kennedy of the secession church, publicly expressed his desire that a goodly number of baptist labourers might be at once sent from Ja maica to diffuse their spirit into the dormant mass in the island ; and, probably,” adds Mr. Phillippo, “ this will be the most effectual means of evangelizing the W est India islands as well as South America.’’^

The Committee feel a gratification in reporting, that the sub stantial and convenient premises recently occupied as the school of the Mico charity in Trinidad, have been sold to the society by the trustees, at a price much below their original cost. These premises (it is hoped) are by this time prepared as a chapel and school for the use of the station. This is one of the purchases which the Committee have been enabled to make in consequence of the Jubilee Fund.

IV.—HAYTI.

PORT AU PLAT— AND TWO OTHER STATIONS.

Number of Members 48.

As the visits of our brethren to this large and populous island have been infrequent, and the Committee have not yet stationed a missionary at Port au Plat, the report for the last year is less encouraging than it might otherwise have been. Still though Messrs. Littlewood and Rycroft have visited the island but twice during the year, the members of the church have been so active and consistent, and such a measure of blessing has been poured upon them, that thirty-four have been baptized during the year. The total number of members being forty-eight. A Sunday-school has also been formed which now contains eighty-five children. “ There are persons of our body,” says Mr. Rycroft, “ in dif ferent parts of the island. This land is open to us, and in it we have materials that could aid our efforts. Shall we deny to this dark land the light of truth. Oh, do send to the perishing souls of this place the gospel. You have much on your hand, but at least let one herald of mercy dwell here.” * To this urgent appeal the Committee hope shortly to respond. The eagerness of the people to receive tracts and bibles (with which Mr. Rycroft had been supplied, through the kindness of the British and Foreign Bible Society, and the Religious Tract Society), is very encouraging. “ No sooner is the bible read than all is attention, and pleasure appears in every face.”

* Letter o f February, 1844. 1844.J HONDURAS. 63

Mr. Rycroft adds, that there are several candidates whom he hopes to baptize before he leaves the island. It is an encouraging and remarkable circumstance, that the recent revolution in Hayti has disestablished popery, and placed all religious bodies in a position of civil equality.

The labours of Mr. Henderson, at Belize, have been continued during the last year without interruption, though in the midst of considerable discouragement. The exercise of necessary dis cipline in the church having diminished the number by eleven, while fifteen have been dismissed, by letter, to Africa and to the W est Indian islands. On the other hand, eighteen persons have been received into the church, of whom eight have been baptized. The total number of members is one hundred and thirty-one. At the same time the children in the day schools amount in all to three hundred and thirty-seven— an increase as compared with the previous year of one hundred and ten. O f the importance of this station in consequence of its close connexion with the southern continent of America, Mr. Hender son speaks strongly. “ I am persuaded,” says he, “ if I were to answer a few questions from the Committee relative to this field of missionary enterprise, I should not be long without help. One missionary on the border of a country inhabited by millions !— enough light to show their darkness, but totally insufficient to aid them. “ I beg you to express our sincere thanks to the friends who have sent us a second box of articles by the ‘ Calista.’ 64 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

“ M y schools prosper, and are very attractive, so that I am much engaged. The native teachers in course of instruction, namely, brethren Warner, Woods, and Michael, give me much pleasure, both in their attainments in school and their consistent walk out of doors. Still they rather add to my engagements than relieve m e; but I hope shortly to be able to leave the school more in one of their hands, that I may devote more of my time to Karif. As to Mosquito, I see no way at present of attaining a knowledge of the language without a residence amongst those who speak it, say for a year at least. This I can only talk of until you send me a coadjutor.”

At the last annual meeting, it was resolved to extend the sphere of the Society’s labours, so as to enable it to take in all parts of the world beyond the British Isles. Unavoidable cir cumstances prevented the Committee acting on this resolution, till within the last few months. Still they have to present an encouraging report of their labours since that time, and trust that the state of their finances in the coming year will justify the hopes of the Committee, and enable them to meet more largely the wants and claims of the British colonies. In compliance with the very urgent application of the Canada Baptist Missionary Society, the Committee have resolved on making grants, for a limited time, to agents occupying two prominent stations in Canada; and also to send out three mis sionaries to labour in destitute and important districts in that province. At M o n t r e a l , the tutor of the college is supported by the Society; the students by the churches, or by their friends. The number of students at present is thirteen. They are engaged in preaching every Lord’s day, in Montreal and the vicinity. One, Mr. King, has left the institution, and is now engaged in the work of an evangelist, at Chatham. The Committee have much pleasure in stating, that they 1844.] CANADA. 6 6

have succeeded in obtaining the services of the Rev. J. M . Cramp, M .A., of Hastings, as theological tutor, an office which was vacant when the Society undertook the responsibilities of the Baptist Colonial Society, through the removal of the Rev. Dr. Davies to Stepney College, London. Notwithstanding the great loss the institution sustained in the departure of Dr. Davies to take the presidency of Stepney College, this department of the Society’s operations has been carried on with but little interruption.

“ The generous assistance o f Mr. Girdwood, and the prompt acquiescence o f the Rev. R A . Fyfe in the request of the Committee, have met the wants of the estab lishment while deprived of the valuable labours of the late principal, and have pre vented that loss from being so severely felt. Thirteen theological students are now pursuing their studies within the institution ; in addition to which, three youths are receiving the elements of a general and classical education.* At the annual examina tion in May last, very favourable testimonials were given by Dr. Black, Rev. H . Esson, M.A., and Rev. J. Girdwood. The first-mentioned gentleman has been pleased to express himself in the following terms: ‘ I have much pleasure in bearing my feeble testimony to the excellency of the mode of tuition adopted in your seminary. .... The examination of those classes which took place during the time I attended reflects the highest credit on Dr. Davies.’ “ The library of the institution has been much enriched during the past year, by the addition o f 324 volumes bequeathed by the late David Brewer, a young minister of much promise, in England, sent through Thomas Pewtress, Esq., and by the liberality o f Dr. Davies, the Rev. R. Pengilly, J. Gurney, Esq., of London, and Mr. Leeming, of Montreal. Very many books, however, are still needed, and some philosophical apparatus is absolutely required. ”+

The want referred to in this last paragraph has been partly supplied by the kindness of friends who have responded to an appeal of Mr. Cramp’s, through Mr. C. Burls. Books, how ever, more especially modern books on theological subjects, are still needed, and will be always welcome. The missionary operations in Canada have enjoyed during the year considerable success. Through the aid afforded by the Society, Mr. Landon has given his undivided attention to the Tuscaroras, and has been kindly assisted in his work by Mr. Car ry er. A system of general education for the whole tribe is in

contemplation, which it is hoped will be carried out during the year. Indians from other tribes— the Mohawks, the Dela wares, and the Cayugas— have solicited aid, and have requested that religious teachers may be sent among them. The number of members connected with the church at Tuscarora is 102.

The reports from the different missionary stations, say the Committee of the Canada Baptist Missionary Society, are on the whole very encouraging. The self- denying labours of our devoted brethren have been signally blessed. About two hundred persons have been added to our churches during the past year, through the instrumentality of these servants of Christ. From the reports of agents the following extract is taken: — “ I have travelled in the course of last year about four thousand miles; I have preached or held meetings, upon an average, once a day; and I have baptized seventy- three persons in the likeness o f the death, burial, and resurrection of the great Head of the church. It has been one of the happiest years of my life; I have been enabled, through your liberality, and that of the people among whom I have laboured, to give myself wholly to the work of the ministry, which is the first year (excepting one) that I was ever enabled so to do.”

The Committee are deeply convinced that there are many peculiar claims to extended operations in this field. To meet them they must rely on the increased contributions of their friends.

Mrs. J e n k i n s , Mrs. J o n e s . Contrary to the expectations the Committee expressed at the last annual meeting, they have to report the commencement of missionary operations in Continental Europe. A station has been commenced at Morlaix in Brittany; one missionary already upon the spot taken upon the funds of the Society, and another accepted. This mission was originally supported by some of the churches in South Wales. A few months ago, an application was received from them, requesting the Com mittee to undertake the support of this mission, as they were unable to support it efficiently, and at the same time continue their contributions to the Baptist Missionary Society. After 1844.] HOME PROCEEDINGS. 67

a lengthened and careful inquiry, the Committee complied with this request, and have resolved to carry on the efforts of our brethren with more energy and efficiency than their means allowed. The district is a very important one; the population upwards of two and a half millions, of whom one million speak Breton, and half of these Breton only. Mr. Jenkins was, till lately, the only missionary among them. The presence and co-operation of Mr. Jones will prove, it is hoped, of essential service. The Committee have pleasure in stating, that a very conve nient site has been obtained for a chapel, towards the erection o f which they will be glad to receive contributions. M. Le Fourdray, the Protestant minister at Brest, has kindly pro mised to make a personal application for help in Paris and other parts of France. The Committee have to acknowledge the kindness of the Paris Religious Tract Society, in granting aid towards printing several tracts written by Mr. Jenkins in the Breton tongue. A new version of the scriptures in that language has been begun, and a considerable portion, it is hoped, will be completed during the year. The awful ignorance and superstition of the people call loudly for the sympathy and prayers of British Christians ; while a recent minute of the government in reference to liberty of religious worship, is likely to afford in the opinion of our brethren, increased facility for religious Protestant move ments.

The total receipts of the Society for the year, exclusive of contributions towards the Mission Vessel, and Jubilee Fund, amount to £21,661 0s. 3d., being an increase, as compared with the preceding year, of £462 16s. 5d. O f this sum, £16,979 11s. 10d. has been contributed for the general pur poses of the Society, being an increase of £1209 Is. 8d. The remainder is made up of contributions for special objects. O f these, the following deserve distinct acknowledgment. From their tried friends, the Committee of the Bible Transla tion Society, grants to the amount of £2000 have been received; and through that Society, a grant of £619 5s. 4d. from the brethren in America, towards translations now executing by the missionaries of the Society in Calcutta. In return for these 1844.] JUBILEE FUND. 69 inunificent contributions, the Committee have already an nounced the publication of 45,000 volumes of scriptures, and the circulation of 47,760. The total number of volumes printed since 1831 is 334,445. The grateful acknowledgments of the Committee are also due to the British and Foreign Bible Society, to the Religious Tract Societies of London, and Paris, and America; to the Sunday School Union; and to the British and Foreign School Society, for various grants, the particulars of which have been already inserted in the Herald.

To this list of acknowledgments, the Committee beg to add the expression of their great obligation to the gentlemen who have kindly given their services during the year as medical advisers— Dr. Asliwell and Ebenezer Smith, Esq., to both of whom the Committee have been compelled to appeal even more frequently than in previous years. The kind, prompt, and attentive service they have rendered is most inadequately ac knowledged in this expression of obligation.

THE JUBILEE FUND.

Up to the 31st of March, 1843, the actual receipts of the Jubilee Fund were reported as £30,433 17s. 6d. Since that time the Committee have received £3750 19s. 8d., making a total of £34,184 17s. 2d., of which £1512 5s. 9d. is specially contributed for a vessel to be employed in the use of the Mis sion on the coast of Africa. O f this sum £13,469 0s. 9d. was reported as expended at the time of the last annual meeting. The balance of £20,415 16s. 5d. is therefore still to be accounted for. O f this amount £ 500 has been granted towards the ex pense of enlarging and completing the premises at Calabar in Jamaica, and another sum of £500 advanced upon them as a loan. The expenses of the African Mission, including the pur chase of the property at Clarence, and the chartering of the “ Chilmark,” have amounted to £3201 15s. lOd. Payments on account of the Mission House, including the purchase of the 70 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

freehold, and 4-5ths of contract, to £6393 6s. £500 have been paid, in fulfilment of the vote of last year, to the Baptist Board of Missions for their Mission to China; £400 have been voted to various Stations in India, and £400 as a loan to Stations in Jamaica; £1512 is due for the vessel; and there is a balance in hand of £6679 2s. 3d., the whole of which is pledged to the various objects announced in the first resolutions of the Society in reference to this Fund, including New Stations in West Indian Islands.

SUMMARY.

The total number of members added to the churches during the past year is 2671, the total number of members in all the churches being 37,976. There are also 205 stations, and sub stations, 90 missionaries, 68 female missionaries, with 197 native preachers and schoolmasters. The number of day-schools is 139, of children taught in day-schools, 9678, and of children taught in sabbath-schools about 15,752. The total receipts for all pur poses £25,411 19s. lid .

AGENCY AND AUXILIARIES.

The close attention of the Committee has been directed during the year to the formation of auxiliaries throughout the country, under the conviction that the increase of the funds of the Society depends mainly on the effectiveness of this agency. There are loud calls upon every hand for more labourers; many additional ones have been sent out during the last year, and many more, it is hoped, will be sent out during the year on which we have entered. An increase of the funds of the Society is therefore absolutely necessary to meet these increased claims. In the north of England, Rev. Philip J. Saffery has been busily and successfully occupied in forming auxiliary societies. His labours have been in a pecuniary way highly remunerative, and it is expected will prove even more so during the coming year. Auxiliaries have been organized or re-organized in about 1844.] SUMMARY. 71

twenty towns and villages, where little or no organization existed before. Juvenile auxiliaries have also been formed at Manchester, Leeds, and other places. In the important work of bringing the claims of the Society before the young, the Committee are happy in being able to report that the Rev. William Fraser has given to it about three months of the year with very encouraging success. Meetings have been held, and juvenile associations formed in Lancashire, Somersetshire, Gloucestershire, Northamptonshire, and in parts of Essex. Several also have been formed in London. At Regent-street, Lambeth, the efficiency of such agency has been admirably proved,— the young persons connected with that place having collected upwards of £80 for the support of native teachers at Fernando Po. The Committee also beg to acknowledge the great obli gations of the Society to their respected treasurer, for his kind and useful exertions in this same cause. He has also visited, during the year, various parts of Cambridgeshire and Norfolk, Hampshire and Gloucestershire, and greatly interested the young in Christian missions. In Wales, Rev. Benjamin Price has been engaged for about four months, in visiting Welsh churches, not previously visited by other deputations. The Committee are glad to report that this agency has more than answered their expectations ; and in the hope that it may be yet more successful, they have secured the services of Mr. Price for another six months. The Rev. Eustace Carey has continued during the year, without a week’s interruption, to visit various counties on behalf of the Society. To these agencies the Committee ascribe the small increase of funds which they are able to report:— an increase which is encouraging, considering the efforts of the previous year, and the great distress which has prevailed during most of the present. As an illustration of the importance of systematic effort on behalf of the mission, it may be mentioned, that from the aux iliary Society in Glasgow, re-organized during the year, the 72 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT.

PRAYER.

I f the Committee may be allowed to append to these state ments a closing appeal, it would be to ask the prayers of their brethren for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on this cause. He only (let us remember) can raise up a suitable agency, or make it effectual when raised. All who have ever preached the gospel in the world, with that godly zeal which prompts men to make every sacrifice, and which enables them to endure every toil, have thus laboured, “ striving according to his work ing who wrought in them mightily.” And so it must ever be. Your Society need labourers— men of extensive practical know ledge, of deep piety, and who are ready for Christ’s sake, and for the sake of dying souls, to forego the comforts of home labour and enter upon new fields,— but who are thus qualified without His influence ? And when that influence has qualified the men and sent them forth, it is equally needed to give them the least real success. The most devout and holy, the most affectionate and prudent servant of Christ cannot of himself secure the con version of one soul. I f any man come to Christ, it is the Father who draws him. How much then is this influence needed ! While there are so many yet to be instructed, faithful and devoted missionaries are few. Important works languish for want of funds. Millions within our reach are untaught; and where there are teachers, they are often repelled by indif ference and unbelief.* Have we prayed as we ought? Is it not to our want of prayer that we must attribute our want of blessing? W e have appealed to men for help ; have we appealed to God with equal earnestness: not to say with infinitely more, considering that he has in his keeping the hearts of all men, as well as the influence that makes their offerings useful ? Abraham was

heard for Sodom— Moses was heard for Israel— Elijah was permitted to save an entire nation from famine, and why? but to show that “ the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much and if of one righteous man, how much more of thousands? Prayer we have had, and to that prayer we ascribe the measure of success which God has been pleased to bestow. A thousand churches at home remember our missions once in the month at least in their supplica tions. Still we may ask, does the salvation of our country men, of our fellow-subjects in the colonies, of nominally Christian nations in Europe, and of the heathen throughout the world rest on our hearts ? Do we desire to see the kingdom of Christ come, with half the earnestness with which we pursue the various objects of daily and common concern? W e pray, but is it such prayer as the prosperity of the church and the salva tion of souls should inspire? W e pray; but is it in faith and hope, and with the holy determination to obtain, if possible, what we ask ? W e pray, but what, if he who hears us pray, and is the God of peace, sees us quarrelling (in our own churches) about trifles ! What if He who gave his Son, sees us seeking our own things and not the things of Christ, and as though prayer were a sub stitute for action, instead of being as it is the complement of it— that which is required to make action complete. It becomes us to be humbled, because of the imperfections of our holiest things. With that humility let us combine a hallowed ambi tion in the cause of our Lord— remembering that we cannot ask too much, nor expect too much from him; remembering too, that “ our faith is permitted to descry, through the gross darkness that covers the pagan regions, a mystical signature on every spot, to indicate its assignment by that covenant which has given to the Messiah ‘ the heathen for his inheritance, and the utmost parts of the earth for his possession.’

H 82 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

WEST INDIAN ISLANDS.

The following extracts are from the report o f Mr. Phillippo on open ings for new stations in the W est Indies. A s embodying his sentiments and observations they will no doubt be read with much interest.

Truly may it be said “ the harvest is great and the labourers are few.” I have now visited Trinidad, Grenada, St. Vincent, St. Lucia, Dominique, and Barbadoes, touching in my route at Martinique and some of the smaller islands. Trinidad, you are aware, is an almost inconceivably magnificent and fertile island, situated at the southern extremity of the Caribbean Archipelago, and separated only from the continent of south America by the gulf of Paria, and the smooth streams of the mighty Oronooko and Guaripeche. It is ninety miles long and fifty broad, shaped like a parellelogram ; with an area of 2400 square miles, and is from 9.30 to 10. 51. north latitude and from 60.30. to 61.20. west longitude. The population of the island a few years since, was about 42,000 of which 16,000 were contained in Port o f Spain the capital; but to such an extent has immigration latterly increased, and which has been at the rate o f from 3 to 4000 per annum, that it cannot be at present less than 100,000. To meet the' moral and religious necessities of this large and rapidly aug menting community, there are not as far as I could ascertain, more than ten evangelical ministers.— Three Wesleyans, three of the Scotch secession church, one Baptist, and two or three o f the Protestant establishment.* Thus calculating that there are ten •who preach the gospel in its simplicity and purity, and these equally distributed throughout the Island, there would be but one sound spiritual instructor to every ten thousand souls. Equally disproportionate are means and institutions for the scriptural instruction o f the rising generation. The wants of the people, therefore, in these respects, are great and appalling. And the destitution becomes the more palpably and painfully evident by the general habits and character of the great mass of the popula tion. In no part of the West Indies have I found the lower classes so benighted, idle, and depraved. Compared indeed with their brethren in those islands where missionary operations have been more abundant and of remoter origin, they are at the present moment in a state but little removed from that in which the former were found fifty years ago. The desirableness of extended missionary effort in this island, it will thus be seen, does not admit o f an inquiry, and various circumstances, which I cannot now detail, particularly distinguish it as a field which claims the prompt and generous aid o f our own denomination. It should at once be occupied by two principal stations at the least, in addition to the one now existing at Port o f Spain. One o f these should be amidst the encampments of discharged African soldiers, situated on the Banks of the Quara, Torure, and La Sewa rivers, on the north-east part o f the island, from which two other important settlements o f the same kind, Toco at the extreme point of the north east, and Manzinilla near the middle of the eastern shore could be frequently reached. The second station should be fixed about five or six miles beyond Savana Grande not far from the centre of the island, where a Baptist church formed by our missionary brother Mr. Cowan already exists, comprising twenty-seven members.

* The Roman Catholic church is also established in Trinidad. 1844.] MR. PHILLIPPO’ s REPORT. 83

The people here also are chiefly soldiers, Africans or of African descent, disbanded after the American war, and many of them were members o f Baptist churches in the Southern States. About 3000 are calculated as being comprised in this latter locality alone, extending only within a circle of ten miles. Nearly the same may be said with respect to the district previously named. As a very considerable number o f these people are prepossessed in favour of our denomination, and have no minister of any kind residing amongst them, they cannot but appear to the Committee and to the society at large, to present powerful claims upon their attention and eiforts. I visited both these districts in company with Mr. Cowan, and can assure the Committee and the Christian public that nothing could exceed the earnestness with which these poor, and I believe many of them, pious people, implored that missionaries o f their “ own society” might be sent among them, or the pleasure and gratitude they expressed at the prospect o f such a consummation of their long and ardent prayers, having as they said, “ been holding on and looking up to God for a minister for twenty-eight years.” Owing to some past peculiar circumstances, the people are generally poor, and therefore at present able to do but little towards the support of ministers among them. Cheered and supported, however, by their presence, and encouraged by their example and advice, 1 have no doubt that the industrial habits of the mass, would soon be so stimulated as to enable them, at least, to contribute towards the support o their pastors in provisions and labour, and thus gradually diminish the annual pecuniary claims of each station upon the society. They have, indeed, generally expressed themselves to this effect, and as an evidence of their desire to assist the cause in every way to the best o f their ability, two or three of them have already given land as sites for the erection o f places of worship and other buildings necessary to a complete missionary establishment, whilst numbers have pledged themselves to con tribute in labour and materials for their erection. These spheres of labour I consider especially important and promising ; equally encouraging with those now presented in some of the interior districts of Jamaica and not dissimilar in some other respects. W e held several meetings in the neighbourhood during our stay, and I was peculiarly gratified with the neat appearance and orderly deportment of all who attended them, nor less so, with the simple enthusiasm which these services soon began to awaken in their bosoms, proving that, like their brethren in Jamaica, there was a chord of their hearts, which, if once struck, would vibrate with equal facility and animation. In neither of these districts, probably, do any influential individuals reside upon whom we could depend for present assistance either as to the support of schools, or in furtherance of any other o f our operations. With P ort o f Spain I think it would be otherwise in respect to pecuniary aid. Several respectable and influential individuals here have already contributed considerable sums to Mr. Cowan towards the erection of a place of worship, and I have no doubt but that as soon as circumstances justify the prospect of a permanent establishment in that important town, in connexion with our society, much larger and more numerous sums would be cheerfully given. It cannot be dissembled that considerable misap prehension exists throughout the island as to the real objects of our society and the tendency of their efforts in the West India Colonies generally, on which account your agents may for some time be regarded with suspicion and treated with hauteur by the majority o f the white inhabitants ; there is not, perhaps, notwithstanding, one town in the West Indies in which so many respectable individuals are to be found of such 84 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

truly liberal and enlightened views, or so free from narrow, sectarian, selfish prejudice, and bigotry, as are associated in this beautiful and thriving capital. With regard to the continued occupation of Port o f Spain as a mission station, I have already given you my opinion. The more I reflect on the subject, the more am I convinced that however discouraging the prospects o f success may for some time appear, this must be our head quarters; here we have begun, and here we must remain ploughing and sowing in hope, until God in fulfilment of his own purposes, shall dispose the hearts of the people to hear and receive his truth. “ Will-worship” and every thing that opposes itself to the influence of the simple gospel o f Christ, must ultimately yield to prudent, patient, persevering, prayerful effort. Nothing in my opinion would exert a worse influence on our prosperity in re lation to this and the other islands, than any thing that would imply a suspicion on our own part, of a want of confidence in the success of our cause. Port o f Spain is the very seat and synagogue of Satan. The ultimate emporium o f commerce in this part o f the New World, and independently o f more local considerations, is surrounded by a large (if I may so say) English suburban population, easily accessible, and awfully destitute, both old and young, of the means of Christian instruction. Under these circumstances, and for additional reasons which I may hereafter assign, I urge the Committee to purchase the premises of the Mico Charity at once, if at a price not exceeding that, o r but little exceeding that, I have previously named, and commence vigorous efforts there without further delay. An impression is actually abroad at Port of Spain, that the efforts of our Society there are only by way of experiment, and which injurious conclusion the renting of the premises for ever so short a time, will but tend to confirm. Trinidad, I repeat, is a very important and necessitous field of missionary labour; and as to the country districts I have named, I know of none more attractive to real Christian philanthropists, who would prefer untrodden fields of enterprise, and delight in promoting the temporal as well as spiritual interests o f their fellow-men. Buildings necessary to be erected for establishments in the country (for they are not here com monly to be rented) would be of the plainest, simplest possible description; and as all, or nearly all, the materials for such purpose may be obtained on the spot, comparatively little pecuniary outlay would be required, except for workmen’s wages, which would render even the commencement o f such stations comparatively inexpensive. The first thing that will be required here are residences, which probably might be erected, under judicious superintendence, and the co-operation of the people, for about £200 or £300 sterling each; after which, places of worship of a description that would be at first required might be raised at a still more inconsiderable cost. The expense of hiring houses in Trinidad, when they can be obtained, is consider ably greater than in Jamaica. Hence it would be impossible to rent any thing like a decent residence in Port of Spain, for a missionary with a family, under ¿£70 or £75 per annum. The latter amount was paid by the Wesleyan Missionary Society, pre viously to their erection o f one themselves, and probably, at the present time, one could not be obtained under £100 sterling. The latter sum was required for one of middling capacity and appearance, that was advertized as without a tenant, and which I looked over. Throughout the country, also, house rent is at a rate proportionably high. During my stay in this island, I had considerable intercourse with several highly 1844.] MB. PfllLLIPPO’ s REPORT. 85

respectable individuals holding official situations, by whom I was treated with great respect and courtesy ; as also by several planters, merchants, and professional men, most of whom expressed great pleasure in the prospect of our extending our efforts in the island; and promised us countenance and support. Of the kind feeling manifested towards our designs by the Presbyterian and Wesleyan missionaries with whom I had opportunities of more especial intercourse, I cannot but speak in terms of satisfaction. The Rev. Mr. Kennedy, pastor of the Scotch secession church at Port o f Spain, expressed his sincere sympathy with us publicly, and his professions are sustained by his uniform intercourse and co-operation with our brother Mr. Cowan, from the com mencement of his missionary labours. Towards myself individually, and as the representative of the Society, this worthy minister of Christ, especially, together with the most respectable members o f his church and congregation, manifested the greatest kindness; and it is but justice to them, and the individuals to whom I have before alluded, to make this acknowledgment. After remaining in Trinidad about three weeks, I proceeded to the lovely island of

G r e n a d a , described as the Italy of the Antilles. It is situated in a south-easterly direction, along this enchanting group of islands, and distant from Trinidad about ninety miles. Its greatest length from north to south is about twenty-five miles, and its greatest breadth twelve. It is about fifty miles in circumference, contains about 80,000 acres, and numbers a population of about 21,000 souls. The parishes into which it is divided are six, more or less populous, in each of which there is a town or village. St. Andrew, containing fifty-seven sugar plantations, and eight coffee and cocoa settlements; St. Patrick, containing twenty-six sugar planta tions ; St. Mark, containing sixteen sugar estates, and eleven cocoa and coffee settlements; and St. George, in which the capital is situated, with various small but populous villages around it. The town receives its designation from the parish in which it stands, and contains from 2000 to 3000 inhabitants. The Wesleyans have a church here of 275 members, as also a station at each of the small towns or villages of Woburn, Constantine, La Baye, and Duguerre, numbering altogether 527 members, and some candidates for church fellowship. They have at the same time five sabbath schools and three day schools, making a total of 655 day and sabbath scholars, super intended by three ministers and three regular schoolmasters. Besides the efforts made by these indefatigable servants of God, and one or two evangelical clergymen, whose united communicants would not probably exceed 1000, nor their children under regular instruction 800, no means are employed in connexion with evangelical protestants for the dissemination of pure Christianity, and thus 19,000 out of the 21,000 are aban doned to ignorance, superstition, and spiritual death. It will thus be perceived, that this island also presents a field for several additional missionaries; but, as I am aware of the limited resources of the Committee, and the claims of other islands, equally, and on some accounts even more pressing, two at least should be sent here immediately, one of them could be stationed at St. George, the other to the most populous and needy district in the country. I have not been able to ascertain whether there are any individuals on this island belonging to our denomination, nor do I think that any interest would be felt in our favour on the part of the higher classes of the community; and, therefore, the whole expense of the erection of chapels and residences, as well as of the support of schools and missionaries, must, for some considerable time to come, be entirely borne by the Society. In their incipient operations, for reasons I cannot now 8 6 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT. [1844.

detail, I would recommend the Committee to hire a dwelling house, one room of which could be occupied as a temporary place of worship, the expense of which would be much more moderate than at Trinidad, as also the necessaries o f life, and the com mon articles o f domestic use. In no respect as to expense, as far as I could learn, would there be any material difference between this island and Jamaica. During my abode here, which was about seven or eight days consecutively (for I had visited the island more than once) I had repeated interviews with the Wesleyan mis sionaries, Mr. Bannister and his coadjutor, as also with several excellent members of their church, and received from them much attention and kindness.

St. L u c i a .— With a view to as much expedition as possible compatible with a proper discharge o f the duties of my mission, I embarked for St. Lucia on the afternoon o f the Sth o f February, in a small sloop passing along the eastern side of St. Vincent, and the still more enchanting scenery presented by the western shore of the former island. The lofty mountains of St. Lucia, covered with majestic forests, their spiral tops appearing above the stratum of clouds that rolled their dense masses along their precipitous sides; its gentle undulations and spacious valleys clothed with the vivid green o f the sugar-cane, contrasting beautifully with the dark purple of the sur rounding heights; and its steep and hoary cliffs, ascending abruptly from the sea, pre sented a picture which, indisposed as I was, could not fail to attract my attention and fascinate my eye. I landed about nine o’clock in the evening, at a small town called Sauffrere, passing between the celebrated Pilnns, the magnificent spiral mountains which rise like pyramids out of the sea at the entrance of the bay, and which, but a few hours before were spanned to the very bosom o f the dark blue waters with a rain bow of the most perfect form and of the most splendid colours I had ever seen. Next day I proceeded in a passage-boat to Castries, the capital, about twenty miles distant, situated on the western side of the island, where I was most courteously received and hospitably entertained by the Hon. William Muter, a gentleman of great wealth, respectability, and influence. Here I was introduced to his Excellency the Governor, and family, Chief-Justice R eddie;— Bennett, Esq., Provost-marshall; the rector of the parish, and several other of the most respectable inhabitants of the island, by all of whom I was treated with marked respect and kindness. St. Lucia is about thirty-two miles in length from north to south, and twelve broad, containing a population of about 16,000 souls. To a considerable degree, as in Tri nidad and Grenada, the people are French, both in manners, language, and feelings. The climate of St. Lucia has been considered unhealthy; but, with the exception of particular districts, I think with no sufficient reason. There is probably as great a pro portion of European residents here, both male and female, for the number of its inhabitants, as in any of the other islands, and the mortality among them is by no means greater. I had an opportunity o f seeing many white persons of different trades and professions, as well as individuals with their families, holding official situations, and they did not by any means exhibit an unhealthy a2>pearance. This island, you are aware, presents an entirely new field for missionary operations, there never having been one missionary of any denomination yet located upon it. There are now two or three places of worship in connexion with the church establishment, supplied by one or two evangelical and excellent men, but from various causes they have not hitherto made any impression upon the people. There are three or four schools in operation in con nexion with the Mico charity, to a considerable degree supported by the liberality of 1844.] MR. PHILLIPPo’s REPORT. 87

the Hon. W . Muter, which have effected very considerable good. These institutions, however, while they are a most necessary and efficient auxiliary to them, are inadequate to the production of those more immediate and important changes which include, especially, the eternal interests of the adult population. Castries probably numbers a population of 3000 inhabitants, and contains but one Protestant church, thus offering a very important sphere for the labours of one mis sionary. A second station could be as advantageously founded at Souffrere, or rather at a village, with very populous and destitute environs, on the eastern side o f the island. I could not ascertain that there was a single individual of our denomination on the island capable of affording any material assistance towards our objects. I feel persuaded, however, that the English residents, from the Governor downwards, would most cheerfully and liberally afford us their countenance and support. Two or three of the most wealthy and influential have indeed pledged themselves to assist us in every way in their power. Nowhere could we commence a mission under more favour able circumstances; and to find a more destitute field, and consequently one that pos sessed a stronger claim upon the first and best efforts of the society, would be im possible. Land for the erection o f suitable buildings at either of these places can be easily obtained, and on very moderate terms; whilst considerable facilities will be afforded in getting wooden buildings from America. The expense of the mission altogether here would be less probably than at any of the other islands. As in the other islands where popery predominates, with perhaps one exception, I would recommend the erection o f neat places o f worship at once. As, however, some time must elapse after the arrival of your agents before these buildings, if begun, would be completed, and as they must immediately have residences, houses could probably be hired of sufficient capacity for both purposes at about fifty or sixty dollars per annum each. It is doubly requisite here from the feeble intermitting efforts that have been made in connexion with long and frequent promises unfulfilled, that our very first operations should exhibit an aspect of vigour and permanency. 8 8 FIFTY-SECOND REPORT.

COMPENDIUM II.

A T a b l e o f Languages and Dialects into which the Holy Scriptures, in whole or in part, have been translated and printed by Missionaries o f the Baptist Missionary Society at Serampore and Cal cutta, aided by grants from the British and Foreign Bible Society, the Edinburgh Bible Society, the American and Foreign Bible Society, the Bible Translation Society, and private friends.

It will be seen that in some o f the translations mentioned in the subjoined list, only one edition of the Scriptures has been issued by the Baptist Mission. This is mainly owing to the fact that after the first editions, the districts for which they had been prepared were visited by the Missionaries of other societies, to whom our brethren gave up the versions which they had executed. The Mahratta, Gujurathi, Oriya, Kurnata, Punjaubi, Kunkunu, Burmese, and other versions, have been repeatedly revised and printed by other brethren. Several o f the Hindui versions have been circulated only to a small extent, the Hindustani, Hindui, and Bengali having come into much more general use of late years.
