*' I have to express the satisfaction which the Society feels
in the exertions made for the benefit of the Church in your
Archdeaconry, especially in the establishment of a Church
Society. You will perceive by the accompanying Circular,
addressed to the Secretaries of our District Committees, that
we are making active enquiry for men duly qualified for the
service of the Colonial Church." — (For extract from the Cir-
cular Letter, see Appendix.)

dix.)
Resolvedf on motion of William End, Esquire, Whereas

portance of procuring a Travelling Missionary or Travelling
Missionaries to supply the spiritual wants of the remote Set-
tlements of the Province, and having already appropriated
£200 of their funds towards the support of such Missionary
or Missionaries, deem it their duty, immediately on being as-
sembled, to testify their continued anxiety on this subject ;

municated by the Secretary to His Lordship.

ject immediately, he be requested to authorize the Archdeacon

Gospel in Foreign Parts, in this Province, who may be wil-
ling to be detached for a time from his present Mission.

Resolved^ on motion of Samuel Scovil, Esquire, That the
thanks of the Society be given to the Rev. George S. Jarvis
for his Sermon preached yesterday, and that he be requested
to furnish the Archdeacon with a copy, that the same may be
printed.
The following Resolutions were moved by Dr. Alley : —
Whereas snveral of the Church Missions in this Province
are so extended, as to embrace moru than one Parish; and
several of the Parishes are in themselves so extensive, as to
require more than one place of Worship, so thai it is impossi-
ble for a single Minister to officiate, even in the ordinary ser-
vices of worship and prayer, in all of them on the same days;
and it is very desirable that these ordinary services should
never be omitted on the Lord's days, and special Feasts and
Fasts of the Church ; therefore
Resolved^ That the several Missionaries be requested to
recommend, for every place of Public Worship, so many of
the most pious and religious persons, being desirous and qua-
lified to read the Service, to receive licences as lay readers,
from the Bishop of the Diocese, or such other person as may
be authorized to grant the same, — which lay readers shall be
entirely subject to the direction of the Minister of the Mission,
as to the part of the Liturgy and Prayers, and also as to the
Homilies and Sermons, which they are to read from the Desk.
Resolved, That the several Missionaries be recommended
to organize subsidiary Church Societies at each of the Sta-
tions, where a suitable place can be procured, for the orderly
and decorous performance of Divine Service; and that he in-
struct the said lay readers in those parts of the Liturgy, ac-
cording to the Kubrick, which are to be read on all occasions, —

as to the proper manner, time and place, of giving public and
Parish notices, — and furnish them with Sermons and Homilies,
pointing out to them the Sermons to be read; — and also to
impress on these lay readers a strict adherence to the instruc-
tions which they may receive.
^ And in order that the said lay readers, and the congrega-
tions whose service of prayer, praise and thanks, they are en-
trusted thus (provisionally) to conduct, may ever be kept in
mind that such services of the said laymen are but a tempo-
rary provision, until regularly ordained Ministers can be pro-
vided ; be it also
Resolved, That the Venerable the Archdeacon be request-
ed to compose a prayer to be offered up, by and with the
Bishop's concurrence, to Almighty God, in such part of the
service as he may please to direct, by every lay reader, to
the effect that our Lord, in his Providence, may graciously
vouchsafe, in his good time, to provide for them ordained
Ministers of his Church, who may rightly instruct them in his
word, and duly administer his holy Sacraments.
Resolved, That the subordinate Church Societies or cor-
porations being duly organized under the presidency of the
Missionary, arrangements may then be made for the establish-
ment of Sunday Schools at each place, where the children
and youth of both sexes may be instructed in the Church
Catechism and Liturgy, — the part the congregation is to take
in the reading of the Psalms by alternate verses, — the cus-
tomary responses, and in singing praises ; and that the best
qualified females be invited to take part in such services of
instruction.
Resolved, That such arrangements would very much extend
the sphere of usefulness of the present Missionaries, and
thus the regular course of ordinary service's would be never
interrupted, whether he be sick or absent ; and that ihe Mis"
sionary may so arrange hia visitations, that all communicants
may have the comfort of the Sacrament duly and regularly
administered ; and that thus the cords of the Church would
be lengthened, and her stakes strengthened.
Whereupon, Resolved, That Dr. Alley's foregoing motions
be entered on the Minutes, and referred to a Committee (to
be appointed by the Archdeacon) to report thereon to the
Archdeacon, who will communicate on the subject with the
Bishop of the Diocese.

Frederictofif February 7 thy 1839.
Reverend Sir,
I have the honor to acquaint you, for the information of the
General Committee of the Church Society of the Arch-
deaconry of New Brunswick, that since the lest Annual Meet-
ing, the sum appropriated by the Society to aid in building a
Chapel at New Maryland, in the Parish of Fredericton, has
been drawn from the hands of the Treasurer, the inhabitants
of that place having erected the building, and complied with
the conditions of the Society.
The Committee will, no doubt, be gratified to learn that
owing to their timely assistance, the people of this Settlement
who have long endeavoured, but in vain, to rear a house of
prayer, for themselves and their children, have now the satis-
faction of worshipping in a building dedicated exclusively to
the service of the Almighty.
The Chapel is a plain structure, sufficiently large to ac-
commodate the congregation for some years to come, and
when painted, will be fully completed and ready for con^
secration.
The efforts made in the neighbouring Parish of Kingsclear
to advance the cause of our holy religion will not be viewed
with indifference by the Committee. A few individuals there,
by great exertions and at considerable expense, (aided by the
contributions of their fellow Churchmen elsewhere) have suc-
ceeded in erecting and in nearly finishing a neat and faithfully
built Church, large enough to contain two hundred and fifty
hearers.
As the seats in it are free, and it is considered expedient
that for a time they should continue to be so, and as the ex-
penses thus necessarily become burdensome to the Church-
men in the Parish, the local Committee, when contributing
their mite to the funds of the Society, have ventured to re-
commend their Chu' h to its most lavourable consideration,
and I doubt not that the Committee will give that attention to
their recommendation, which their zeal in the good cause so
well deserves.
It were almost invidious, where many have done well, to
mention the name of any individual in particular, but I cannot
permit the present opportunity to pass, without expressing the
opinion, that to the indefatigable industry and perseverance of
Charles Lee, Esquire, the Parishioners of Kingsclear are
mainly indebted for the creditable edifice, in which they now
assemble to worship the God of their fathers on the Sabbath
day.
I have the honor to be. Reverend Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
J. M. STIRLING.
The Parish Church of Kingsclear is forty feet in length
and twenty eight in breadth ; it has already cost three hundred
and twenty pounds; and when finished, the expenses will pro-
bably amount to nearly four hundred pounds.
The Chapel at Maryland is large enough to accommodate
seventy persons — and has cost seventy five pounds.
To Rev. F. Coster, Secretary*
