tery of Montreal, setting forth, in substance, that the congre-
gation of Erskine Church, Montreal, were unanimously desirous
of giving a call to the Rev. Jamoo S. Black, as junior pastor; that
as Mr. Black was now a Congregational Minister, the law of the
Church, strictly applied, would prevent his reception into full
standing as a Minister of this Church till after the meeting of
next Assembly ; that so long delay to fill the vacancy in Erskine
Church would be injurious to the congregation ; that the Rev.
Mr. Black had made appli'" ^'.-^n to be received as a Minister of
' , ^ this Church, signifying at i lie s d,me time his readiness to accept
in good faith the Standard, f the Church ; and praying the

letters in the usual form to the other Presbyteries forthwith,

a Minister of the Church in the usual way, no Objection being
lodged in the Clerk's hands at the expiry of two months from
the issuing of such letters.
T«8timon'l8. The Memorial was accompanied by several testimonials to the
literary and theological standing of Mr. Black, and other
papers bearing upon the doctrinal views of the Church with
which he is connected. These papers were read.
The minutes of Presbytery transmitting the memorial stated
that Drs. Taylor and Burns, and Mr. John Brodie, had been
appointed to suppert the memorial before the Assembly. Dr.
Taylor, Dr. Burns and Mr. Brodie were heard.

to the Presbyteries, and, if no objections be received at the end
of two months, that they take the usual steps for receiving Mr.

independent of all other Chtirches in its jurisdiction, and under
authority to Christ alone, the Head of His Church* and Head
over aU things to the Church, agree to unite on the following
basis, to be subscribed by the Moderators of the respective

sought to be obtained by this article can be gained in some way
which shall be satisfactory, if possible, to all the members of
this Assemblj^.

Temporalities Fund of the Presbyterian Church of Canada in
connection with the Church of Scotland shall be disposed of, or
dealt with, desiring to leave the control and disposition of the

The second recommendation was read and agreed to.
The third recommendation was read, as follows : That the
Home Mission Fund be relieved of the support of Manitoba
College, as an institution scarcely coming within the field of
Home Mission work, an'' that the question of the maintenance
of the College be referred to the committee appointed to consider
the College Reports.
The consideration of this resolution was, on motion, deferred
till the Report on Colleges should be brought up.
The remaining recommendations of the draft-deliverance were
taken up one by one, and were severally agreed to. The deliv-
erance as amended was then adopted. The recommendations,
omitting the one relating to Manitoba College, above, are as
follows ; —
1. That the arrears of stipend, of one hundred and thirty-
seven dollars (^137), due by the congregations in British Colum-
bia to Mr. R. Jamieson for the i^ast year, be paid out of the
Home Mission Fund, and that the request of these congrega-
tions for an increase of supplement from $1,000 to fl,2{>0 for
two years, be granted for one year.
2. That the Assembly agree to the recommendation of the
Home Mission Committee to inci'ease the salaries of the Mis-
sionaries in Manitdba, as stated in the report.
3. That this Assembly approve of the action of the Home
Mission Committee in passing a resolution "requiring the Pres-
bytery of Manitoba hereafter to refuse the resignation of any
Missionary until the committee has been corresponded with,
and time allowed to supply his place," since, under the circum-
stances, the committee could not have acted otherwise, as
guardians of the Home Mission Fund and as having due regard
to the proper working of the. Manitoba Mission.
4. That the attention of the Assembly being called to the fact
that the Presbytery of Manitoba have not transmitted their
Report on Missions to the Home Mission Committee, and con-
sidering the large grants from the fund received by this Pres-
bytery, the Home Mission Committee be authorized to secure
compliance with the regulations conditional upon the obtaining
of these grants, and to procure the necessary information before
the next meeting of the committee.
6. That the Presbytery of Manitoba having taken steps to raise
certain of their Mission Stations to the status of sui^plemented gregations-
congregations, with powers to call -ministers, this Assembly Manitoba,
approve of such efforts and consider them deserving of encour-
agement, but order that the above named Presbytery be requir-
ed, before sustaining a call to a minister in any of these congrega-
tions, to communicate with the Convener of the Home Mission
Committee, so that the amount of supplement to be given may
be decided on.
6. That this Court approve of the several sums voted to
Professor Hart, of the Presbyterian Church of Canada in con-
nection with the Church of Scotland, for his valuable seryices
in the Manitoba College, and in the mission field of the Province,
and that the thanks of the Assembly be conveyed to him, and

this Court ,
8. That the Assembly are unable to set forth as they desire
their appreciation of the valuable services rendered to our Home
Mission work by the convener of the committee, Mr. \Im.
Cochrane, M.A., whose zeal ami efforts in behalf of the scheme
have been unusually great during the present year, and that,
with the view of enabling him to employ such assistance as may
be indispensable, he be authorized to draw on the funds of the
Church at the rate of ^200 per annum, and that this amount be
handed to him to meet his expenses for assistance during the
past year,
9. That the attention of the Assembly being called to the
delicate and difficult duties performed during the year by
Mr. R. Torrance, the Convener of the Committee for the Dis-
tribution of Probationers, order that the grant of $50, voted to
him last year, be continued for this year. .
10. That after careful examination of the Regulations of the
Home Mission Committee in connection with the overture from
the Presbytery of Cobourg, the only alteration which is deemed
advisable at present is the deleting of the latter half of number
two of these regulations, which will then stand as follows : —
" Ministers and Probationers who have retired from the
Ministry, and entered on some other calling for the time, shall
not have their names put on the list of distribution without the
permission of the General Assembly," — the words following
being struck out — " And that ministers resigning their charges
oftener than twice, shall have their names put on the list only
with the permission of the General Assembly to that effect."
11. That with respect to the overture from the Presbytery of
Montreal, the Assembly adopt the resolution of the Home
Mission Committee, That all student missionaries be paid at
the minimum rate of six dollars per week, during the summer,
along with their board, and travelling expenses to the field of
labour, and all probationers at the minimum rate of seven dollars
per Sabbath, along with their board, and that this amount be
increased gradually in proportion to the stipend paid before
by the respective congregations, and that this regulation go into
operation on the first day of October next.

the Synod by this Assembly, on Saturday last, on the subject of
union, had been presented to the conference and read, and was
now laid on the Assembly table. Th<* ccuuuunication is as
follows : —
" At Ottawa, and within St. Andrew's Church there, Monday, Communic-
the eighth day of Jimo, one thousand eight hundred and seventy- »tion,&c.
four years : —
" Which day the Synod of the Presbyterian Church of Canada
in connection with the Church of Scotland met pursuant to
adjournment, and was constituted with prayer.
^' Inter Alia —
" The Synod having considered the communication of the
General Assembly of the Canada Presbyterian Church, in the
conference held on Saturday, and contained in a Minute of
Assembly which has been lai<l on the table of the Synod, and is
as follows, viz ; —
(See resolutions ou I'uion, adopted by the AsseniMy at the 9th and 10th
SederuntB, and coniinunicuted to the .Synod kt the Conferouce on Suturda^.)
"Resolve —
"1. That the Synod entirely .ipprove and Willingly accept
said Preamble to the proposed Ba.sia of Union, both as being
suitable and becoming in itself, and as being entirely in accord-
ance with the style and language o'i the Church of Scotland on
all great and solemn occasions in its history.
"2. That the Synod consent to the omission from the basis of
the fourth article, as containing only a matter of detail, in re-
gard to Which there is no rer.son to apprehend that there will be
difference of opinion in the united Church. But as the said
article is expressive of Christian affection towards the whole
Chtlrch of God, and a desire to hold fraternal intercourse with
it in its several branches as opportunity offers, they would be
glad that the substance of it were placed, as originally intended,
among the supplementary resolutions.
" 3. That the Synod, though having been willing to accept
the seventh resolution if necessary, to a harmonious union, have
always deemed it unnecessary, and cordially agree that it be
withdrawn.
" 4. That the Synod record their great satisfaction with the
spirit of the conference on Saturday, and the clear and candid
explanations then given of the views of the Assembly.
" 5. That these resolutions be commiinicated to the General
Assembly of the Canada Presbyterian Church, by the Synod."
'* It was further resolved —
"That the General Assembly of the Canada Presbyterian
Church be requested to appoint a committee to meet with a
Committee of this Synod, to revise the resolution respecting
fraternal relations with other Churches, and to prepare a form
of Remit on the Basis and accompanying resolutions, for the
consideratibn of the inferior judicatories and congregations of
both Churches, and that members of the former Union Com-
mittee be appointed to meet the Committee which the General
Assembly may appoint. "

The Assembly called for the report of the Committee to frame
a Deliverance on the Report of the Foreign Mission Committee.
The report being presented and read, was received and adopted.
The deliverance therein contained is in terms following : —
1. The Assembly records its gratitude to Almighty God for the
Report on the subject of Missions to the Heathen ; for the safe
arrival at their destination of the missionaries sent to India ; for
the care taken of the life and health of the missionaries in dif-
ferent fields, and for any success vouchsafed ; and especially for
the preservation of the life and health of our missionary to For-
mosa, amid the peculiar dangers and trials which have sur-
rounded him, and for successes, the reality of which has been,
in some respects, too sadly yet gloriously proved in the joyful
endurance of persecution, and in the death of some of the con-
verts graciously given him; and they pray that the number of
missionaries may be greatly increased, and that the power of
Christ may rest on them and on their labours.
2. The Assembly accepts with thankfulness the services of Dr.
J. B. Fraser as medical missionary for Formosa, and they cor-
dially approve of the resolution of the committee to send another
missionary to that field as soon as possible, and they authorize
any Presbytery to which application shall be made to ordain Dr.
Fraser and any other missionary who may be selected.
3. The Assembly rejoice that the congregations of the Church
appear to be awakening to a sense of their duty and privilege in
being fellow-workers with God in making His glory known, as
ihown in the increased contributions to the Foreign Mission
Fund.
4. The Assembly leave it in the hands of the Foreign Mission
Committee to provide for the Saskatchewan Mission as they
deem best in the circumstances.

Mr. D. H. Fletcher, the cimvener of the Committee on the ii.ii-. iivrd
Home and Foreign Record, handed in and read a report stating that — ■''-'("•''t
the circulation of the Record had inci-eased during the year from
8,0(H) to 12,6(X) copies, or nearly 60 per cent. ; that the receipts
had been ^3,061 28 ; and the expenditure $;),()49 10, leaving a
balaiyie of $12 18. The committee expressed gmtiticatiou with the
results of the changes introduced last year, and in order to secure
iin increased diffusion of missionary intelligence, suggested :
1. That sessions and boards of management be strongly recuu-
mended to supply every family in their respective congregations
with a copy of the Record.
2. That the conveners of the various mission committees be
instructed to furnish the Editor, from time to time, with such
communications as may tend to enlarge the sympathies of our
people with the different departments of work in which the
Church is engaged.
3. That the Editor, as formerly, be instructed to abridge, as he
may deem necessary, the reports of the proceedings of Presby-
turies, in order that more space may be devoted to missionary
intelligence.
On motion, the report was received and adopted, and the thanks Report rec'd
of the Assembly were tendered to the convener for his diligence. * "^"Pt**!-

Pretbyterie? "^^ Applications of Presbyteries for leave to take Students of Theo-
■ logy on Trials for License in terms under written.
The following students were reported as having completed their
theological curriculum, and twenty-one of them as having satis-
' factorily undergone the required preliminary examinuaon, viz : —
I. From the Presbytery of Montreal .
^ 1. E. I.Torrance, B. A. 2. James Cameron, B.A. 3. Robt.

1. John Campbell 2. Hector Currie.
From the Presbytery of Toronto :
1. Isaac Campbell. 2. John R. S. Burnett. 3. Robert
Thynne. 4. Thomas Fotheringham. 5. D. McKeracher.
From the Presbytery of Simcoe :
I 1. Dr. J. B. Fraser.

1. Thomas Thomson.
Of these twenty-two applications, two have certain specialties,
'' ' namely, those in favour of Messrs. D. McKeracher and Thomas
Fotheringham. Mr. McKeracher has been appointed by the
General Assembly's Home Mission Committee to labour for two
years at Prince Arthur's Landing. The Presbytery ask that the
usual preliminary examination be dispensed with, on account of
his labouring at such a distance in the service of the Church ;
and that leave be given to the Presbytery to take him on public
probationary trials for license, as also thereafter, if satisfied, to
ordain him.
With reference to Mr. Fotheringh .»m, it is certified that he had
attended two sessions of the theological course in Knox College, and
one session in the University of Leipsig, Germany, and the Theo-
logical Hall of the United Presbyterian Church in Scotland. The
best testimonials are given as to his character and qualifications.
The Committee unanimously agreed to recommend that the
leave asked be granted to the respective Presbyteries, to take the
students named on trials for licen>e ; that the exemption askeil be
granted in Mr. McKeracher's case, and that Mr. Fotheringham be
held as having completed his theological curriculum.
tte|K>rt rec'd The report was received and adopted, and the leave asked
••i Adopted, granted to the several Presbyteries in terms of their respective
applications.

HOME MISSION COMMITTEE,
CANADA PEESBYTEEIAN CHURCH,
■ : FOR 1873-74.
The Home Mission Committee ia presenting to the General Assembly tbeir
Annual Report, desire to express their gratitude to Almighty God for the large
measure o( success that has crowned their efforts during the year. In no former
period of our history as a church, has such an amount of mission work been
accomplished, or with more gratifying results.
Your Committee have from time to time by deputations and special appeals
endeavored to awaken increased interest in our Home Mission work. They regret,
however, that the increase it) the funds — reasonably expected and absolutely
necessary if our Church is to retain her present position and occupy new fields —
has not been fully realised. The result is that the close of the financial year fin.ds
the Disbursements in excess of the Receipts to the extent of 91^9.52. The
contributions from all sources is 920,531.27, while the expenditure is 920,730.79.
_ It has only been by the strictest economy, and the refusal of many new appli-
cations, that a much larger deficit is not reported. This economy your Committee
feels assured has not always beeh justifiable, and cannot be continued without danger
to our Missionary interests. It ought not to be necessary were the members and
adherents of our church alive to the importance of Home Mission work. The
contributions of 50,000 members should be such as to place the Committee in a
position* to fill every new opening without being restricted by the fear of debt. As
the case now stands, for eight months in the year, the Committee, in order to
meet pressing obligations, have to borrow large sums of money, trusting to forth-
coming collections to discharge their indebtedness. How to meet old claims, withoat
entering into new engagements, is all that can be done in present oircumstAnces.

In addition to the sum credited the Presbytery of Manitoba in the above tables,
the Mission Stations in that Province have contributed during the year $445, to-
wards the support of Missionaries, making a total from that Presbytery of $547.30,
It will be seen from the foregoing titbles that seyeral Presbyteries hare fallen below
their contributions of 1872-73. Those that have increased their contributions over
1872-73 are: Montreal, Toronto, BrookvilU,Cob<)urg,Ontari()Simcoe, Hamilton, Guelph,
Paris, Stratford, London, Huron, Owen Sound, Durham and Bruce. There may be
ijood reasons fer the very small increase in some Presbyteries, and for decrease in
others, as contrasted with last year. Shonld »uBh a retrograde movement however
continue, your committee will be under th« necessity of abandoning most important
fields, where Missionaries have been sent, under instructions of the assembly. The
expenses of permanent Missionaries in the Lake Superior region, and the constantly
increasing demands of the Province of Manitoba, call for a vtry decided increase in
our funds for the ensuing year.

DETAILS OF MISSION WORK 1873-74.
stH
•■ BRITISH COLUMBIA.
Tour Committee bave sot succeeded during the year in obtaining; anotLer
MiEsionary for British Columbia. As only oue application was made, they diil not
feel warranted in making an appointment. Mr. Jamiesou still occupies New
Westminster and the adjacent stations of North Arm aud Liangley. Very little
progress has been made during the past year. lu a letter received from Mr. JamiusoD
Bince the April meeting of the Home Mission Committee, he says : "I have been
engaged during the past year in conducting services at the usual stations. These
bave been so often reported upon, that it is unuecesaary to repeat tbem. The
changes are very few. There has been some increase to the population, but few of
them belong to our church. I have had, however, more than the us^ual amount of
(liscouragements to contend with. But for the great disappointment in the railway,
one might reasonably have expected to see a different state of affairs throughout the
Province, and a consequent increase of more encouraging material for religions
organisations. * * , * * The lloatiug character of the population
demands the exercise of more than ordinary faith. While there has been much
toilsome labor, the past twelve years, there has been little or no opportunity for
interesting results. Ours is in fact an itinerant mission, with this difference,
tbat while the minister is stationery the people are constantly moving. It would
not, however, be right to conclude that our labor or the expenditure of so much
money by the church have been in vain, because our membership and attendance
are comparatively small at any time."

The last General Assembly fixed Mr. Jamieson's salary at $1,000 in addition to
the $fJ0O which it was expected the congregation would raise. Of the amount, as
will be seen by the financial statement, only $463 has been paid. Mr. Jamiesou
writes that on thi^ account, coupled with the high rate of living, he has incurred a
^ood deal of debt to several parties for supplies of necessaries, besides using a
legacy of $200 left him by a member of the church, which otherwise would have
been invested for future want. Accompanying the financial statement, the
floaamittee of the church sent the following communication, which may guide the
Assembly in its action regarding the Mission : —
New Westminster, B. C, ISth March, 1874.
Sir, — I am directed by the Committee of St. Andrew's Church to forward to
yon the enclosed statement of receipts and expenditure of the Mission Station here,
in csnuection with the Canada Presbyterian Church, and at the same time to lay
before you some facts relative to the present and prospective state of the Mission.
As the statement will show, the total amount paid as salary to our pastor. Rev.
1\. Jamieson, since the begining of 1873, is, $463, this, with the $1,000 per annum,
which he receives from the Canada Presbyterian Church, makes $1,713 for fifteen
months, an amount altogether inadequate to his support, in this country, where
many oi the necessaries of life are so expensive ; nor can the Committee hope to
raise a much larger sum during the year upon which we have entered. The congre-
gation in the city, from which a large proportion of the revenue is drawn, is,
however, increasing steadily, though slowly as yet, and the Committee trust that,
piospering with the prosperity which has lately begun to dawn upon the Province,
the Presbyterian Church in New Westminster will soon see brighter days.
The Committee feel sure that you would regret to see the work of the church
here abandoned, the majority of the different congregations gathered into other
folds, and the labor and expenditure of so many years lost ; yet, faiUug additional
help from the mother church, it is difficult to see how this deplorable result can be
avoided. The Committee would, therefore, respectfully ask you to consider care-
fully the following proposition, viz : That the Canada Presbyterian Church should
i^nke good last year's deficit ($187) and make an allowance of $1,200, instead of
$1,000, for the years 1874 and 1875. This will involve an expenditure, in excess of
the amount provided for under the present arrangement, of a little more than $500,
and will, we confidently bchevc, be the means of maintaining and establishing, in
this distant corner of the earth, a representative of our beloved church,
The Province of British Columbia, owing to causes, into a statement of which
it is imposssible to enter here, was in a very depressed condition at the time of its
confederation with Canada. From that depression it is now recovering. Largo
public works are being unaertaken both by the Dominion and Provincial Govern-
ments ; new settlers are constantly arriving in the conntry, and a healthier tone
pervades the entire community. These things make it peculiarly desirable that^the
work carried on for so many years, under great difficulties and at great expense,
should not be abandoned now, when, so far as human eyes can see, the harvest is
at, hand.

MANITOBA, "
The Committee are able to report enoouraging progress in the Nortb-West.
Mr. Ure, of Godericb, and your convener, visited the Province ladt Ji^y in reference
to the location of the Manitoba GuUeMi and vrhilaproNeutiuK their special mission,
embraced the opportunity of preaching in nearly all the stations, and assisting the
brethren in evangelistic work. 13ut for the entire failure of the crops in certain
localities, rendering the people unable to give for ordinances to the extent expected,
a much larger amount would have been contributed to the Home Mission Fund.
The Mission stations of Little Britain, Headingly and Parks Creek, and the new
settlements of Bookwood, Springiield and Sunuyside, are all within the region,
which had no harvest on account of the grasshopper visitation, and benoe were
much crippled. From the annual report presented to the Presbytery of Manitoba,
by Prof. Bryco, and subsequently laid before the Home Mission Committee, tho
following extracts are made, indicating the progress uf the various stations during
the past year.
Winnipeg.
Winnipeg, as the locality that has received the greatest addition to its popula-
tion during the past year, has advanced most rapidly in church matters. Thu
congregation has gone on steadily increasing, and has added thirty-four to the roll
of members during tho year, and has thus received in all eighty-live members. It
may be mentioned that, without doubt, the number would have been considerably
increased but for the congregation being without a settled pastor.
The congregation has so increased that it was found necessary, in November,
to add a wing, so that now the church holds about 350 persons. It baa about
eighty families and one hundred single persons. Tho pews are nearly all let ; the con-
gregation is influential, and has been energetic and liberal during the past year. As
it has declared its intention of being self-supporting it now comes under the
head of '.' Vacant Congregations." The expemsesof one candidate (9120) were paid.
The amount due to Mr. Moodie, for the first three months of the church year, as
assistant to Prof. Bryce, of 1J150, was paid, and the congregation is paying for the
present supply from the Home Mission Committee at the rate of $1,500 per annum.
The total contributions for all pur^r -js from March Slst to March 31st for the
congregation may be set down at $2,300. After meeting what the congregation con-
sidered its fair share of expenses, it was decided at the annual meeting to make a
donation of 9400 to Prof. Br3'ce for the attention shown by him in- beginning and
managing the congregation. This was the more acceptable that the high rate of
living in Winnipeg requires it. The resolution adopted at the meeting was aa
as follows : " That this congi-egation tender their hearty thanks to Rev. Professor
Bryce for bis zealoiis and assiduous services on behalf of the congregation, in the
pnlpit and otherwise, and as a token of their appreciation thereof beg to tender
him the sum of 9400 to be paid from the ordinary revenue of the church." The
congregation, during the past year, chose three elders, who were ordained and
inducted, and Prof. Bryce as moderator of session has still a supervision of the
congregation. A Missionary Association has been formed in connection with the
congregation, and a strong committee of the congregation for giving advice and
assistance to immigrants did good service. The Sabbath School, from a mere band-
full a year ago, has grown with great rapidity ; it has now a well organised and
capable staff of twelve teachers ; it has eighty scholars ; it uses the international
series of lessons, and is well supplied with books, catechisms and Sabbath School
literature ; its teachers have monthly meetings, and the regular, stated sermon is
preached to the children.
The supply of the past year has been considerably varied : Messrs. Ure and
Cochrane, Commissioners to Manitoba ; Messrs. Macdonnell and Carmicbael, Bev.
Mr. Smith, of Fond du Lao ; Bev. Dr. Clarke, and Bev. Mr. Bobertaon, havp each
done good service. Of the 92,300 raised during the year by the oongregatiou,
91,000 has been expended in additions to the akursb.

This congregation, under the care of Bev. Mr. Fraser, lias done moderately
well during the past year. 9100 toward the Home Mission Fund was the utmost
the Presbytery could obtain on account of the harvest beiuR an absolute failure and
almost all depending on this as their only resource. It is presumed the people
will ha' e some difficulty in living the winter through comfortably. They have with
unusubi zeal gone forward with a very substantial stone church, which was very
much needed; upon which, however, there is remaining a debt of 91,500. This
point is the probable site of a town, andihe hold thus taken by the erection of a
good church is not only a present advantage but a considerable proupective one as
well. The congregation has added, between the two stations, Little Britain and
Park's Creek, fifteen to its roll during the past year.
Rockwood.
' I ''■■•':
f 1. fi!
When the report was given a year ago this station was reported as about to
begin a church. The church is erected, though not finished in time for services
during the present winter ; the congregation here is not large, but the position is
u very important one as being the key to a large extent of country, of thirteen
townships open to settlement. To the north of it are the Town^liips of Victoria
and Greenwood, where twice during the past winter we had service and which
promise to be important fields. West of Rockwood also is a new settlement.
Woo Hands, vilierQ we have never had service. In Bockwood we have maintained a
regular fortnigfitly service for the past year.
Springfield and Sunnyside.
Since last year Sunnyside has been added as a new station. Although this
region has a small Episcopal Church erected in it, we have almost exclusive
command of the people. These townships have organized as a municipality. The
establishment of the second station has had the effect of retarding the srection of
the church which was planned lest year ; it has been found necessary to have two
churches, and matters are now clear and favourable for such a result. It may be
necessary to explain that in the prairie settlements the fixing of sites is a most
difficult matter. The tendency to scatter among the settlers in a country where
there is a foad in any direction is marvellous and seriously affects rapid advance
in the formation of cougregations. It was found necessary on account of the
importance of this field to remove Bev. Mr. Donaldson from Headingly and
station him at Springfield. This cannot fail to be most advantageous for this
locality. Already the Springfield church is under way and will be fit for service
by the middle of summer. Sunnyside has also decided on building a charch of
its own. Should a year or even two years from now see two churches and two
fair congregations in this region, it must be confessed that this will be a rapid
development, when it is considered that the settlement is not two years old yet.
During the past year the congregation was formed, commilni6n dispensed and a
Boll containing nine communicants made out. This congregation has pledged
itself to raise 9160 next year and iu all probability this will be exceeded.
Headingly.
Thi0 station has jnst about held its own during the past year. It has at
present no station which can be connected with it ; although a reference to the
map will show that it is the nearest point to what is likely to be a good
11
Fettlemeot, " The Boyne." For nine months of tbe pMt year the Rev. Mr.
Donaldson has sopplied this congregation and haa paid two visita to tbe Boyne
thirty miles away. Akoot New Year it was fonnd neoesgary, as already noted, to
remove Mr. Donaldson to Springfield. Since thattimellendingly haa been supplied
every Sabbath : although fifteen miles distant from Winnipeg, tbe journey has been
made iu all kinds of weather, without a failure. At no time a very hopeful
congregation it has maintained its place fairly. Dnriug the past year Sabbath
School and tbe regular ordinances have been maintained and the oommunion
dispensed.
' Headingly has been charged with the amount deducted from Mr. Donaldson's
quarterly salary, and as being in the famine dtHtrict, has probably done its share,
at least as well as we have ever yet been able to induce it to do, by raising 975.
w
i
Boyne.
As will be seen by the map this is an isolated settlement. Could we occupy
it the people are prepared to put up a little church, and we could count on
probably the greater part of the settlement. Our plan of supplying it would be to
iiave a missionary able to endure hardship stationed at Headingly, to go on
alternate Sabbaths to the Boyne, aiul have on that Sabbath Headingly supplied
from Winnipeg. As soon as spring opens should the supply of men be great
enough, we intend doing what we can fur this district.
Poplar Grove, &.c.
This is the first of the settlements on the Lake of the Woods road east from
Winnipeg. We have during the past winter held service ou a few occasions at
this point. From the colporteur of the Bible Society, who is a Kildonan elder
and who made a religious census of the new settlements, we learn that there were
fifty-one Presbyterians, old and young, in this district last summer, i. c, in the
region over some thirty miles. The settlements, of course, are only beginning.
'This region, lying as it does on the Dawson route and on tbe probable line of one
of tbe firHt branches of the Canadian Pacific, will soon be filled with settlers. All
that we can do for this region must Ufe from Winnipeg for some time, unless we
can have an itinerant missionary employed.
, . <.' l^ V,', '.
Portage La Prairie, High Bluff, and Burnside.
These three points have all been under the care of the Bev. Mr. Mathieson.
There has been a good detl of development in this field, particularly in the
western part of it. Poplar Point, where we have a few people, has been
occasionally supplied. ,j«xi ai- n^j ,',^^iK.i
High Bluff is a good, station : has spent a considerable amount upon its
church and mame combined, and will, it is hoped, have them ready for occupancy
during the present summer. A grant from the Building Fund has been made
to this congregation. This congregation has a glebe of some fifty acres. The
missionary supplies this Bt%tion fortnightly.
Portage La Prairie. This congregation is not veiy large, but worships in its
own church, and has service every Sabbath : it is an important point and has a
new settlement rising a few miles north of it.
Bumtide, though the newest, is tbe strongest station of this gronp : it has
developed very much during the year. A ohnreh is now being erected there : the
material is mostly upon the ground and tbe application has been made to th* -
hnrch Building Fund.

la this group of stations elders wera elected and the 'whole constituted a
congregation. All the elders (6) elected have not accepted, but last week thoso
who did were ordained and inducted, and the first session in Mr western district
thus organized, the first of many more to be. An application for a division of
this exCeusive field was made at last meeting of Presbjrtery and a depatatiou
consisting of Messrs. Bobertson and Frazer was appointed to visit them, with
explicit instructions that unless the field contributed largely in excess of present
amounts we could not afford them another missionary. During the past year
the amount to be raised by this group of stations was §270, and this has been
deducted from the salary of their missionary in his quarterly payments. The
deputation appointed to visit these stations has just returned, and reports
encouraging things, viz.: tbat the group of stations will raise at least 9600 during
the coming yoar. At next meeting of Presbytery we hope the field may be divided,
&B it ia very extensive for one missionary.

Palestine, Pine Creek, and and Crossing (White Mud.)
In this region Rev. Mr. McNabb was laboring successfully until poor health
compelled him to resign. After his removal, with the exception of two Sabbaths'
preaching, we were unable to give this region any supply until the coming of Rev.
Mr. Robertson in January. The Home Mission Committee, in oider that Knox
church might have an opportmnitj of hearing the Rev. Dr. Clarke, who had been
supplying Knox church for about a month before Mr. Robertson's arrival, sent
the latter gentleman west for five weeks. Mr. Robertson with great energy aud
acceptance visited the field, encouraged the people and brought down to tha
Presbytery a petition signed by nearly ninety persons praying to be organized into
a supplemented congregation. This settlement of thirty scattered families are
willing to contribute about 8325 in the first year and wish to call a minister, which
the Presbytery encouraged them to do. From what has been said in regard to
this western district the Committee may see that a wy is opening up for us of
getting congregations out of the leading-strings of being mission stations, and of
encouraging them to move towards supporting their own ministers. We shall, we
trust, be able in the coming year to get several congregations on their own, feet in
this way. ...

In all proba'jility at next meeting of Presbytery we may make some
suggestions towards >xorking out a scheme of managing those congregations that
will call and become supplemented charges. It has req^'ed much perseverance
and patiencfi with some of them, but matters are lookmg favourable now. It
would not bo just to pass without notice Rev. Mr. Robertson, in this oonseotion,
who has in the few weeks of his visit west done invaluable service.
i't.S
ijlf-
In order to accomplish these ends we need more men : and if we succeed there
can be no doubt that mucii advancement will result. As before urged by the
Presbytery, we need three more missionaries, and wiU. we trust, be able to sustain
at least two of them, with our increased contributions, on a sum not greater than
that drawn from the Fund during the year new closing.

Educational Work.
',-.t*ri
Oar College Board and Senate will report fiilly to the A'ssemblj. We may
merely advert to the College work. Prosperity has been again vonchsafed to us :
thirty-four students have this season been entered on the roll, rnd the work done
has been the most satisfaotory in the history of the College. Onr differences of
opinion in regard to the site of the College have not injured it at all, and tiie
removal, should the Assembly so decide, will take place under the most favourable
auspices. Onr Ladies^ School (not in formal connection with the Church) has
also been very successful. There have been in attendance thirty pupils this year.
Fees from it will reach nearly $1000 this year ; but our expenditure in beginning,
lipeping up, and paying teachers' salaries (over $600 for salaries alone) is heavy:
we have to acknowledge gratefully assistance sent us from home. The religious
census of pupils in attendance has been : Presbyterians, ten ; Boman Catholics,
tea ; Church of England, seven ; Wesleyans, three. Not only have we reclaimed
most of the Protestant girls from the Nun's School, but it will be observed we
have carried the war into the enemy's country. We insert a paragraph from the
leading paper of the country, for last week, conducted by one not connected with
us at all, and showing the public sentiment. It says: . ... . .,,,.,
" ' Manitoba College,' under the auspices of the Presbytery, located at
Xildonan, four miles from Winnipeg, might be rated with the best Ontario
riigh Schools, or even Upper Canada College, of Toronto, It prepares students
for matriculation and though but three years in existence, is doing a large amount
of work. The fees are very reasonable. ' W'nnipeg Ladies' School ' is an
incorporated institution founded by the Presbyterian Church, and provides a
superior education, embracing, besides the more solid branches, all the modern
accomplishments." ;,i;,t It ym t'A nvji^t ' "* v (««^i^' '^ti JmtnJo s8«;

Just a year ago the Bill introduced by the Government, at onr snggeption
v-nabling us to hold property by Trustees, was passed. Trustees have been
Appointed .nd in most cases have taken the steps necessary for procurinp titles.
Knox Church, Winnipeg, has not yet received its title though occupancy before the
transfer ensures us pospcssion, and we hope within three months to have our
limits defined— an important matter as the lend on wb'ch the church Atands is
worth from $3000 to $5000 per acre. At Headingly we havo tnken the necfssory

our church is bnili' on a sr 111 lot, for which we have made application. It is a
(liKpttted claim, btit we are likely to hold our own. At Palestine the young and
spirited congregation has under contemplation the buying of the McNabb property
of 16C . ores, with a house on it. At Sockwood and Springfield we have bonds

Church of Scotland Missionaries. : • :
Under the happy arrangement of 1872 there have been working in concert
with us the misBionaries of the " Presbyterian Church in Canada in connection
with the Church of Scotland."' We are grateful to your committee for the grant
of $200 per annum to Prof. Hart, although it is but a small recompense for the
serrice rendered. Prof. Hart has endeared himself to us all. His services in the
College have been invaluable ; and his regular and willing help in the mission
stations has given us every reason to be satisfied with the arrangements made.
Whatever the state of the union question after the Assembly, we trust we may
still work together in the common ground of the College ; believing that should
the union not be consummated at once, it is at least certain within a few years. ^
v^
\ -I «
The Bev. Dr. Clarke, the second missionary of this church, arrived in this
Province in the middle of December, 1873. As there was no minister to supply
Knox church, Winnipeg, though another had before this been sent for, Dr. Clarke
supplied the congregation for two months and a half. Our cordial thanks are due
for tbo service rendered at such a necessitous time. Dr. Clarke has been sent for
a few weeks to Little Britain, to supply the place of Rev. Mr. Frazer, who has
gone for the meantime to Palestine.
From the foregoing it is evident that there has been a great ontward advance
during the year. We regret not being able to do more for the Home Mission
Fund ; but the unfortunate failure of the crops is our reason. As already stated,
the prospects of next year are good. We need a greater outpouring of Ood's
spirit, for amidst our church building and rapid advance we feel a great tendency
in ourselves to realize more the seen than the unseen, the temporal rather than
the eternal. Brethren, pray more for the missiom of the Church. We pledge
ourselves to do our utmost to be as independent as the circumstances in which wo
are placed permit, and our cry is still for more men.
In reference to oitr work in Manitoba, the Home Mission Committee at its last
meeting agreed to recommend to the General Assembly :
1. That the salaries of Missionaries be 9900 per annum for married men, and
8700 for unmarried men, to take effect on Ist October, 1874.
2. That the Home Mission Committee be hereafter relieved of the support of
Manitoba College.

The Rev. E. Vincent, who has resigned Lis connection with the Saskatchewan
Mission, has been engaged for one year, from the first of April, to labor in Mani-
toba. His salary up to the first of July is assumed by the Foreign Missioa
Committee. ,
Messers. McKellar-and Currie, students of the third year of Knox College, have
also been sent to labor in the Province, by the Students' Missionary Society, during
the present summer. These welcome additions to our staff will enable the Presby-
tery to enter new fields, where large numbers of emigrants are taking up land and
forming settlements.
Your Committee at its meeting in October, on the recommendation of the
Presbytery of Manitoba, voted the cum of 9100 to Professor Hart, as a small
recognition of his services in misaion work iuring the former year, and further
agreed to give him at the rate of $200 per a'^jum while engaged in such work. Mr.
Hart has rendered efficient service to our church, and co-operated most heartily in
our efforts to establish ordinances in the more remote sections of the Province.
Tonr Committee, at the meeting in October, passed a resolntioo, " Beqairing the
Presbytery of Manitoba hereafter to refuse the resignation of any Missionary, until
the Committee has been corresponded with and time allowed to .inpply his place."

Notwithstandiug that the Presbytery of Manitoba remonstrate against such a
requirement as infringing upon their rights as a Presbytery, the Committee still
adhere to their resolution as essential to the regular supply of ordinaaoea and the
very existence of our stations in distant localities of the Province. '
m
Your Oommittee, in common with the Presbytery of Manitoba, have again to
express their thanks to Joseph McKay, Esq., of Montreal, who has this year, aa
last, interested himself in raining a fund to aid in the building of churches. In
several cases, a small grant given by the Presbytery under certain special conditions,
has stimulated the people t(Arect churches, which otherwise would have been
iudefinitly postponed.
The Grant of 1200 promised by the Irish Church toward Mr. Donaldson's
salary, has not been reoeived for the present year. The Free Church of Scotland
has, however, generously sent 9500 towards our work in Manitoba. The latter has
been duly acknowledged, and the convener is in correspondence with the Irish
Church regarding the former.

LAKE SUPERIOR REGION.
The stations in the Lake Superior district were supplied during the last summer
by students sent by the Missionary Society of Knox College. Mr. Bennelson was
stationed at Sanlt St. Marie ; Mr. MoPherson at Silver Islet, and Mr. McKerracher
at Prince Arthur's Landing. Your Committee did all in their power to secure
permanent supply for the winter months, but failed. They are now at length
happy to announce that appointmants for two years, or more, have been made to
those important stations. Mr. W. Kay has been appointed to Sault St. Marie ; Mr.
D. J. Caswell to Silver Islet ; and Mr. D. McKerracher to Prince Arthur's Landing.
Mr. Kay and Mr. Caswell have been ordained and have left for their fields of labor.
Mr. McKerracher follows in July. In the meanwhile Mr. P. Nicol supples Prince
Arthur's Landing until the arrival of Mr. McKerracher.
MUSKOKA.
The Muskoka diotrict, under the care of the Presbytery of Simcoe, has been
successfully worked, during the past year, by Mr. Marples, assisted by Probationers
and students, and the members of the Presbytery. A new church building in
Bracebridge has been commenced ; another one at Monk is in progress, and a third
at South Falls has been completed. The Subscriptions promised in laud or money
towards church building in these districts, amounts to 93,122.50. A further appeal
to aid these necessitous districts in this commendable work, is now being made
through the Synod of Toronto.
Presbytery of Toronto.
The Convener of tbc Home Mission Committe of the Preshybery of Toronto reports
that the work has been carried on within the bounds of the Pre»b)rtery during the
year \vith about the same success as in former years. Several of the stations continue
weak and have not sensibly advanced towards the point where they could take rank
as settled charges. Aurora and Newmarket form an exception in this respect.
Under the able and self-denying labours nf Mr. Bruce a good congregation haa been
gathered in the former villace and a comfortable church erected , and it is hoped that
the present season will see the same work accomplished in ttie case of Newmarket.
It may be noted that the Presbytery received at its meeting in March a numerously
sij^ned pecition for supply from residents in and around Queensville, a village a few
miles to the north-east of Newmarket. It is tra soon to speak of results, but a
missionary haa been sent and the prospects are very encoui aging for the formation of
a strong congregation in a district from which our branch of the Church haa be«n
hitherto abut out.

Perhaps the most important feature in the H. M. work of this Presbytery
during the year has been the erection of a church and the formation of a new
con^'regation in the north-west of the city. The district enjoyed the labours of Mr.
Scrimger during the summer of 1673, but the work was hindered by the want of a
HuitiibTe pl.ice to worship in, imtil the fall of the year, when a commodious frame
church was opened. The services were conducted and the work carried on during
the winter by Knox College Students'.Missionarj' Society. A congregation has now
b^en organized with a communion roll of thirty-six. This mission has been conducted
hitherto without any expense to the Assembly's Committee, the congregation of
Gould St. having supplied the necessary means. Sabbath evening service and
Sabbath-school work is still carried on in Duche^l St. by Knox Church, and in
Davenport by Charles St., with much the same success as last year. In Sherbourne
St. a successful Sabbath-school is in operation, v.nder the care of the session of Gould
St., and another in Caer Howel St. undtr the auspices of the Y. SI. Christian
Association of the same church.

Tkc Pr€><bi/tcrii of Montreal report considerable activity in church building during
the year. At Bemmirififord a neat little brick church has been erected to accommo-
date 200. At Harrinyton, in the Ottawa group of stations, a new church was opened
in SeiJtember last, costing .^1500, of which .fllOO has been paid. A large portion of
this amount was raised through the efforts of Mr. K. J. McLeod, B. A., who
laboured in the district for several i-ummers with great acceptance. At Riviere Du
Lout) also ground has been purchased for a church and school-house. The latter was
bailt during the past summer and will accommodate the congregation for some time.
A considerable portion of the $700 expended upon its erection was contributed by
summer visitors. The congregation of JJanville are building a new church. Lar/ucrrc,
hitherto a Mission station, has this year obtained a settled pastor. During the
winter a Sabbath evening service has been kept u]) by the students in Pditc Cute,
Montreal. The report closes by stating that during the year some of the stations had
had considerable accessions to the membership, and that at Indian Lands and
elsewhere there have been precious seasons of revival.
Presbytery of Hamilton.
'.;;i.V2t.il H'i',. -
Church extension in the City of Hamilton i)rogrtsses favorably. The Mission
station known as the Wcntworth St. Mission, was last Autumn organized into a
congregation with a communion roll of between thirty and forty members. The
congregation are now in the act of building a school-house, situated on Emerald St.,
and which will in a short time be succeeded by a church. The locality chosen for
the church is a very desirable one, in the east end of the city.
In the west end of the city, on Pearl St. near York St., a verv commodious
building has been erected by Central Chubrvh. At present a Sabbath-school i8
co/iducted in it, with an average attendance of about I'JO scholar^i. Weekly prayfr
meetings are held in it and there is no doubt that in a few years this movement will
develope into a separate congregation.

The Field.
jifff
i'lywpi!''
The field receiving Bj)ecial attention is from the Chalk river to the !Mattawan ;
distance of eighty miles, embracing an average distance on either side of the Kiver
Ottawa of three miles. There are outposts to this that have been visited by the
missionary during the winter ; on the east, Hunters' Lodge ; on the west, Lake
Tailor and Nippissingne ; on the north, the Hudson Bay post at Tiromiscamangue.
This field is bounded on the south by the lately erected Mission Stations, Alice and
Pittavawft. . .,•--■■. -• ,..!i',-..,.ii*. .-..^.^ .-
17
The field derives ts im|>oi-tance from the extensive manufacturing of sciuar*
timber and Haw 1o<,'b more than in its richness in fertility of soil, or mineral resources,
as far as yet ascertained. The permanent ]>ortion of the population that claim the
special attention of the Church are sixty Protestant families, and the floating ijopulation
engo^^ed in the trafKc number many thousands, of every nationality, and of every grade
of education and intelligence. The field is farther important from its being a probable
hii;rhway to the West, and the already rising importance of Mattawan, imrveyed by the
Ontario (iovernnient as a village, and to be the future depot for the lumbering opera-
tions beyond. Arrangements are in progress for building a church at this ix)int. The
bulk of the commercial interest of the field and the executive administration of the
business is in the Dossessioii and trust of Presbyterians, therefore, the oar is at our
hand if we will but work it. If not, others are eagerly watching the favourable
opportunity. , ^; ^ ^ ; ... 1
The Work.
V* U. \j
This field is wrought in summer by being divided into throe preaching stations,
viz. : Point Alexander, Des Joachim, and iVtattawan, with an occasional visit at
other points, as Chalk Ri >er, Hamilton depot on the Dos Moine Iliver, and Kockcliif
ou the Ottawa. The attendance in no place exceeding forty. All the families have
been visited at least once, those nearest the stations more frequently. One Sabbath
school, at Point Alexander, is kept open all year by one of the members of the
Church. Average attendance, twenty. ,^,,, ,,, j .„ , ,, ,, jr i-.rt.i ^v. .fiu4W
Special attention has been given to the visiting (*f the stianttes'dnriAg flic wlnier
months ; which, <nving to the lightness of the snow this year, and cmisiderablA depth
being necessarv to travel in this tough country, less work has been Overtaken than
was hopijd. Thirty-nine shanties have been visited, and at twenty-seven religious
services were held in the evening, embracing ii^ all an audience of one thouswid men,
the remaining twelve being teamsters' shanties. To accomplish this work one thousand

Mission Fields— Summer of 1873. , "; " * ,.
. I.— Penetanodishene, *c.
This has been one of the oldest of the Society's mission fields. It is very
extensive consisting as it does of .five preaching stations. Up to the last year all
the work was performed by one missionary. But owing to the extent of the field
it was then found necessary to send two. Accordingly tho field wiu divided into
««»( GaoTip I — Consists of Penetangnishono, Vint's Settlement and Midland.
Services were held every Sabbath in each of thesfe places. Attendance->-at Vint'd
Settlement, about 30 ; at Penetanguishene, from 35 to 40 ; at Midland, at first
very small, but it soon increased to 40. Sabbath Schools were also held at each of
these stations, and also at the Reformatory, \Kliich is connected with the group.
Religious instruction was also given to the Presbyterian boys at the latter inntitu-
tion. Three times during the summer the missionary visited Muskosh Mills,
where the attendance was about 30, and where the peoplo were very destitute
of the means of grace inasmuch as these three were the only missionary
visits they received during the whole year. Subscriptions to the Society-'—
Penetanguishene, 9130.85 ; Vint's Settlement, $84 ; Midland, 921.25 ; Muskosh
Mills, 910 : at Christmas 9*^0 was received from the Reformatory ; and 96 from
Vint's Settlement. Total, 9230.10.
^ Qbocp II— Comprises Weybridge and McBae Settlement, which are ten miles
apart. Services were held every Sabbath in the Village of Weybridge, with an
attendance of from 50 to 80; and, on alternate Sabbaths, at the two statioun in
MoRae Settlement ; the attendance at the school house in Tiny being from 30 to
50, and at the Orange Hall in Floss from 50 to 80. A prayer meeting was held
every week, and Sabbath Schools were carried on. Amount subscribed was 9134.54 ;
collected in summer, 973.77 ; and at Christmas, 936.52. Total collected, 9110.2'J.
Th« sacrament of the Lord's Supper was dispensed by the Rev. Mr. Craw to
29 communicants, at Weybridge, and 23 at Penetanguishene. ,
' ,, ..7 ■■; ;i.ii;' -.,-■■
The people in these two groups are very desirous of having a pastor perman-
ently settled over them. With this end in view the Society have agreed to leave
the whole field to Itself under the care of the Simcoe Presbytery.
2. — WaUBADSHENE AMD PoBT SeVEBN, WITH StUBQEON BaT.
This is chiefly a lumbering district, and being on the line of the new Midiatid
Railway is likely to become one of importance. The Sabbath work of the mis-
sionary consisted in preaching and superintending a Sabbath School at Port
Severn and Waubausheue, and preaching every alternative Sabbath at Sturgeon
19
Bay. Prayer meetings were conducted during the week. Sibbnth attendanctt : —
At Port Severn, from 80 to 4U, and at Waubauahene, from $0 to 70. Owing to the
nature of the district the population is very fluctuating. Hence missionary labor
is muoli required and at the same time somewhat difficult. Rtill contributions to
tho Society are liberal. Amount collected at Waubaushene, 990.46 ; at Port Severn;
$r)6.25; at Sturgeon Bay, 920 ; from Messrs. Dodge & Co., 970 for board. Total,
9246.60. Tho sacraments were administered by Bev. John Gray, of Orilia, who
organized the congregation.
4— Parry Sound District. •
Here there are eight stations at which the missionary labored— six of them
receiving supply on Sabbath and tho remaining two on week days. At lifoKellar
Falls tho attendance was from 45 to GO; at Blair Settlement, from 40 to 46. The
other places, such as Parry Sound village, the Junction and White Stone Lake were
also pretty well attended. In all these points there is considerable interest taken
in religious matters. The population also is rapidly increasing. The field is,
therefore, very necessitous. There is, however, every reason to believe that if it
were regularly supplied it would soon become self-sustaining. The amount raised
was 980.48. .,,,,,.
5— Majjixoulin Islamo.

A/' J
The district in which the missionary labored comprised an extent of 40 miles
along three of the Government roads on tho Island. The mission was begun only
two years ago, and the progress of the work has been gratifying. In the former
year four stations were opened ; last year two new ones were taken up. Hence there
lire BIX places of labor. Occaciona] services were held (in a barn) at South Bay,
with an attendance of from 60 to 90 ; also, at Jono's Settlement, Michael Bay,
Providenco Bay, Manitowing village (likely to be a place of importance,) and at
FoH^il Hill. In each of these places the p.ttcudance wiik eucoura(;ing. In the whole
ilistrict there aro about 80 Protestant families. The Indians, who are numerous,
being almost entirely Boman Catholics. Tho pupulatiou is rapidly increasing. In
addition to preaching, conducting Sabbath Schools, &c., tho missionary succeeded
in putting a stop to much Sabbath profanation. Tho total amount collected was
$123.50.
6— MUSKOKA.
■AV
The district occupied by the missionary was a very extensive, though thinly
inhabited one. Services were held as often as possible at Muskoka, Port Carling,
Fraser's Settlement, Bycrson Junction, Muplo Hill, Sigucu Fall, and Magnctawan
village. Tlio avoingo attendance was about 2.'!>. Tho Communion was dispensed
lit Port Carling ami Muskoku by tho Bev. J. Marples, of Brncebridge. The wholo
district is important being as it is a favorito plncu of resort for summer tourists.
The population also, thoughrat present thin, is rapidly increasing. A better division
of tho miRsioii field is expected to bo luadn in tho future. Collected in the field :
^riO.t).!. Uoceived from the congrogation of tho Uev. Mr. McKee, Simcoe Presbytery,
$10 ; biid from tho congregation of the Buv. Mr. McDiarmid, London PrcBbyti'ry,910.
7— Sault Ste. Mamie, &c. ^ . > n >• ov •
This is a most important position — at the Capioru terminus of Lake Superior,
and by which all vessels to and from the North West must pass. There are two
Rtatious where Sabbath services were held, one at the Sault village and the other
iivo miles distant in tho Township of Korah. Services were conducted twice each
Sabbath in tho village, with an attendance in the morning of from !.'> to 25, and in
tho evening from H.'i to 4.') ; and once every Sabbath in Korah, with an attendance
of from 2.5 to 40. Bruce Mines (fifty miles east of tho Sault) received in former
years occasional supply, but owing to the distance and the deterioration of the place
it was abandoned last year. The whole district has been long tinder the care of the

Society, but tbo progress of the work bas not been enoouragiug. Tbongb earnest
and fMthfnl efforta have been put forth by the missionaries, yet the work of tbe
summer appears to bav9 been undone in the absence of a missionary during the
winter. Hence it is denifable thai a permanent rainister bo sfint. With this end in
view the fief^ has been given over to the Home Mission Cbmmittee. Owing to tbe
improvements in the present place of .worship, and the purchase of a lot on which
to build a new church, the contribution of the Society was not bo large as it would
otherwise have been. The total amount was 9104.
8,— SiLVKK IsiiET. .,
This important point (at the N. W. of T,. iSuporior, and not far from Thunder
Bay) is a new station taken up by the Society. It is a peciiHar one. The -Island,
from whVch the place derives both name and support, wad when discovered a little
rock, seventy feet by tliirty, projecting above the water, and about three quarters of
A mile distant from the shore. Idit it has been greatly enlarged and heantihed ; and
is now, in fact, a little conip.irt village on the water. The ininers nearly all board on
Island ; but the majority ot the ptople reside in the village on shore. All the
Kroperty, both at the Island and on nhuru, bulonii;s to the Coiupany. A neat frame
uilding serves the purposes both of chiirch and school. The Presbyterians (who are
far more numerous than any other I'roteslant denomination) were very glad that a
missionary had been sent to them. There is no other station within reach. The
attendance in the morning was from 20 to 40 ; and in the evnin^ from 80 to 100.
The contribution to the Society was $251.1.5. In addition to this, the missionary
received a valuable present from the Sabbath-school, liike Knult Ste. Marie this
station has also been committed to the cafe of H, M. O.. which hAH already advertised
for ministers and probationers to volunteer their servicrs in thcRe important districts.
Owing to ihe flnctuating nature of the population in both these idaces during the
summer, by far the best period for miasionary labour is the winter season.
9.— North Hastings. ■ --fo, • ,.'!•■ ■
As in former years two missionaries w«re sent to this district. It is divided into
two groups.
Groupl. comprifes three statiors : the Upper and Lower School-houses in
Carlow, and Crayton's Settlement lUspective attendances : 90, 70, and 20. Stepg
were taken to erect a church in Carlow ; and before the missionary left ^750.00 was
subscribed for that purpose. The amount subscribed for the Society was J163.00 ;
paid «G8,40.
.Group 2. comprises five stations ; Maynooth, with an attendance of from 60 to
70; Fiss' Settlement, attendance 00 ; Kernigan's Settlement, attendance 65,; Wick-
low and Harcourt ; amount subscribed, i$12j.00; paid, $09.90.
Much good, by the blessing of God, appears to have resulted from the labours of
the missionaries in this extensive and important district. Sabbath-schools ami
prayer-meetings were conducted at most of the stations. The Sacrament of the
Lord's Supper was dispensed at Maynooth by the l^ev. Mr. Scott of Napanee ; and
at Carlow, by the Rer. Mr. Burton, of Belleville. It was expected that an ordained
missionery would ere now have been settled over this field ; but as that very
desirable end has not yet been attained the people liave requested the Society to
continue the supply.
Beabbrooke and South iNniAN.
Hii i;;'iil it
These stations are in tbe Townships of Clarence and Cumberland. They were
taken up by the Society at the request of the Clerk of the Ottawa Presbytery. The
attendance at Bearbrooke varied Ironi 50 to \)0. and at South Indian from ^^O to (50.
The services of the missionarj' were very acceptable. Owing, however, to the
proximity d the field to the Students' MisRionary Society at Montreal it has been
deemed a«lviBable not to send a ndssionary there this summer. The. amount collected
was *58.07.
11.— SOMBRA, ON ElVER St. CtAIH.
This field was entered upon just two years ago. So rapid' has been the progress
of the work there, that the neld is now handed over to the Chatham Presbytery with

the view of getting a permanent pastor. There are three Rtations— Somhra village
iilack Creek, and Hydunham. Attendance in each from r)0 tu 80. The Sabbatn-
RchnolB and Bible Classes were also well attended. The Sacramentn were dinpenHed
at all the ntationfl. Total number of nieoiberH, 68. In addition to the payment of. a
liberal donation to the MisHionary and the commencement li Hubscriptionn for the
immediate erection of Buitabio places of woruhip in Black Creek and Sydenham, the
held contributed to the Society the total amount of the niiHBionarieB' expeiiseH, t. c.

Mission Work During Session t873"4.
For the three Sabbaths kuring the Christmas vacation supply was sent to thofo
nf the Society's mission Kelds which are more ncceHnible in winter, vi/,. : Tay and
Medonte ; Waubaushene and Port Severn ; l'enei.-n;'uishene, &c. ; and WyobridKe
and McKae Settlement. An arrangement was ahn made with the members of the
Simcoe Presbytery whereby t-upply was i^iven to lln' three latter lields for two
additional Sabbaths during the KeHbion. I'hu repoitb of the mi.s3ionari<«B were very
encouraging.
During the whole se.'^sioii, however, the members of the Society labored in four
miBsion stations in the C'ity ot Toronto with very encotirafing success, especially in
two of them— Duchess Street and Colle>;e Street- which, thougli liegun two years
ago, are now looking f»)r pern).-inent minist'ers. D.ivenport miHpion continues as
prosperous as might be exjieeted from tin- iiaturt' of the field. In St. John's Ward,
owing to the prevalence if huijiIIvov, little" visitiDij was done ; couBequently, the
attendauce has been rather discourai^ing. All Ihe necessary expenseH connected with
these stations were defrayed by theeongrei^.ations of the Ciky.
A few of the members of the Society were ai)poin1ed to visit the patients in the
Hospital; and a few others to give religumn instruction every Sabbath morninj^ to
the numerous prisoners in the Jail.

Report of Sub Conimittee on Distribution, *'
,*a
The Sub-Comiuittee, on the dintribution of probationorK, havo to leport, that
they have met regularly, near the close of oanh quarter, since the last iuoetiu|{ of
the Uiwerfd Au/iieiubly, and allocated from the roll of those who placed themselvea
at their dispoaal for appointntontn, to each Presbytory, supply in proportion to the
Uibmer of their vacancies, an ascertained in reply to circular issued for the purpose.
For the first quarter, bof^inninp; with 20lh July, 1H73, there were twenty pro.
bationers for the entire three months, nud thrno for shorter periodn, while the
number of reported vacant congregations w^us tifty-eigbt, or an iiveragu of proba-
tiouer-BUpply to each, of a little more than one Sabbath out of three.
For the second quarter, begiuning with the lOtb October, there wore twenty-six
probationers and seventy-two vacancies, or about the same proportion of supply as
for the previous quarter.
In the third quarter there were twenty-four probationers, while the number of
vacancies was seventy-one ; the proportion of supply thus continuing much the
same as for the two preceding quarters.
' ' ' For the quarter now current there are thirty-three probationers for the same
number of vacancies, tbo proportion of supply to each Presbytery being thus nearly
one-half.
The Sub-Committee believe they may say that never before hap there been such
a number of niuues on the roll for any quarter ; and the st^me remark will apply to
the year, for, by referring to Appendix IV, it will bo seen that forty-seven have
placed their services at the disposal of the ohurch, and shown their readiness to go
to any field to which they might be appointed, trusting that the head of the church
would direct them to the place in which bo would have them permanently to labor.
It will bo seen from Appendix III that one hundred and fifteen vacancies
have been reported for supply during the year, reckoning two mission stations for
tlie Presbytery of Montreal that procured settlements, one by the ordination of
Mr. Wcllwood, whose name was upon the roll, and the other by the translation of
Mr. Kenneth Mcl)onald, from the congregation of Thamesford, in the Presbytery
of Loudon. Including the same stations there have been thirty-nine settlements.
Two of t^ese have taken place in the Presbytery of Bruce ; two in that of Simcoe ;
live in the Presbytery of Owen Sound ; one in the Presbytery of Huron ; six in the
Presbytery of London ; one in tlie Presbytery of Guelph ; three in the Presbytery of
Hamilton ; four in the Presbytery of Toronto; three in the Presbytery of Ontario ;
two in the Presbytery of Cobnrg ; one in the Presbytery of Kingston ; three in the
Presbytery of Brockville, and six in the Presbytery of Montreal. Of these fourteen
have been from among the probationers, and the remainder from those who did not
Rive in their names, or who were translated from one pastoral charge to another.
Two probationers have returned to Britain, and these, with the fourteen settlements
that have taken place, reduces the number on the roll, at present available, to
thirty-one. Of these fourteen have been received to appointments since January
of the current year; thirteen since April, 1B73, and four at earlier dates. It will

thus be Beeu that those taking the work of the church have, generally, not to wait
long for a Hettlement.
Your Sub-Coinniittfin would repeat the conviction expressed in proviouj reports
that the Byatem of distribution at present In force doservcH the continued aanotiou
of the Supreme Court of the Church. It may not please all parties, but It is just to
all, if faithfully administered. They would recommend, however, that no congre-
gation be reported for supply by probutiouors that is* not looking forward to a
Hettlement, either as a self-sustaining or a suppl^^L-ented congregation ; and farther,
that probationers have the opportunity of being heard in the largosi, vacancies as
well as the smallest. Were these recommci.datiouB adopted and faithfully carried
out there would scarcely bo a licentiate or miniHtflr without charge who did not give
Ju hi.! name to the Sub-Co .umittec. The number of such hiis already considerably
decreased, and it is hoped that there will be further progress in that direction.

ROBERT TORRANCE, Convener.
Uuelph, May 12tb, 1874.
The scheme proposed by the Committee and adopted by last General Assembly ,
with a view to the more effective working of supplemented congregations has met
with gratifying success during the past year. In the great majority of cases, the
congregations have come up to the standard demanded, thus ensuring a continuance
• if the Home Mission grant, and adding to the greater comfort, of the minister. In
tlio case of a few, whore, for ditt'erent reasons, measures had not been taken to
bring the matter before the congregation, or where the congregations promi: ed to
come up to the requirements of the Committee before next meeting, the grants
have been continued, the fact being reported to the Assembly.
The Committee, during the year, have prepared and issued new scheduks for
the half-yearly and yearly returns of Mission stations and supplemented congrega-
tions. The punctual return of iiieso papers to the Convener or Clerk of the
Committee, would very much simplify the work and expedite the printing of the
annual report.
The Committee, at its meeting in April, agreed to recommend to the Assembly.
1. That the allowance to students for summer work be increased to ^6 per
Sabbath, together with board and travelling expenses, to their lields of labor.
2. That tho romunoration to proBationera supplying vaco'oies, be in no case
leas than $7, with board, and that this amount be increased grsanally in proportion
to tho stipend paid by the respective congregations before they became vacant.
The Committee have to not/co with deflln regret tho loss sustained by the
removal of the Rev. Dr. Water.-^ to St. Johns, New Brunswick. For many years Dr.
Waters inost efficiently porforn>:\l tho duti's of Clerk to the Committee, and in
every way possible co-operated for tho extension of our Homo Miapion work.
In the appendices to the report will be found a table containing the names of the
Mission Stations and supiilemeutetl con^'regations, as reimrted by the several
Presbyteries. Also, lints of the Ministers, J^ay Catechiats, liicentiates and Theo-
logical Students at present imder the .lirection of the Committee. Your Convener
gratefully makes mention of the assistance rendered him by Mr. R. H. Warden in
the compilation of the statistics. Should any inaccuracies he found, the blame rests
to a great extent with Presbyteries, whose returns in many cases are incomplete, and
in others delayed until within a few days of the meeting of Assembly.
All of which is respectfully submitted ,
WILLIAM COCHRANE,
CoNVENEB Home Mission Committie.
Biantford, Ont , June 3rd, 1874.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON STATISTICS.
53
To the Oeneral Assembly of the Canada PresbyUrian Church :
In presenting their Report to your Venenible Assembly, your Committee feel
themselves called on, in the first place, to exjjress their sense of the loss sustained
through the translation of Dr. Waters, who 1ms been for so many years Convener,
and upon whom has devolved the preparation of the Annual Report for a long
Esriod, from his pastoral charge in this Province to the citv of bt. John, New
runswick. Dr. Waters was one specially (pialified for such work, and the ac-
quaintance which he had acquired with the state and working of the Church, as
brought under his attention fioin year to year of his couvenenship, by the returns
of Congregational statistics and Financial Statements, gave hi n a facility in
dealing with the subject, rendering the service lighter to him than it can possibly
be to one attempting it for the first time. The Committee feel it due to him and
to themselves thus to put in the very commencement of their present Report this
acknowledgment of Dr. Waters' worth and ability.
Owing to other cinuimstances, to which it is unnecessary to allude except in
the most general manner, the person by whom this Report has been prepared has
not been able to present it in a form satisfactory to himself, nor, it is feared, doing
full justice to the Church. A carefully prepared Report from full and accurate
Returns is necessary to a full and proper understanding of the progress, position
and influence of the Canada Presbyterian Church. Your Committee would have
been highly gratified had they been able to lay such upon your table ; but having
failed in this, they must express the hope that soon, even next year, there may
bo furnished, what has never yet been supplied, complete returns, consistent in
all their parts, from every Congregation, whether with or without a settled pastor,
and Mission Station of the Canada Presbyterian Church.
While deeming it their duty to make this remark, and to hold out such au
object as not only desirable but attainable, they would speak with pleasure of the
neat and finished state of some of the returns they have received, owing, beyond
all question, in a considerable degree to the pains taken by the Clerks of Presby-
teries from "hich they have come, and of the promptitude with which they have
been forwarded, z.. as to be in hands close upon the time assigned in the blank
forms furnished.
STATISTICS.
According to the Reports received, the number of Ministers on the rolls of
Presbyteries is 329. Last year thd number returned was 315, thus showing an
increase of 14, and an increase of 22 over the year immediately preceding that.
Evidence is thus presented that the Lord of the harvest is answering the prayer of
his disciples to send forth labourers into His harvest. Some of these, more than
in some former years, have come from the Church in Britain, others have been
trained in the halls of our own institutions. May they all prove workmen not
needing to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
The number of Regular Charges is reported to be [645, an increase of 12
over the number reported last year ; and in connection with these there are 48
Stations (2 fewer than last year) receiving supply of the gospel, but not foiming part
of the regular ])astorate. In the Report of your Committee for 1871-72 there was
an increase of these stations amounting to 12 ov'er that if the prior year. In the
Report for 1872-73 there was a decrease of 20. This year shows a further slight
falling off. The Vacancies are returned as 78, and the Mission Stations at 37,
au increase of the former of 11 over the previous year, while that year showed an
increase of 14 over the one immediately preceding, and that again of 5 over
1870-71. It will thus be seen that there is still a wide door and effectual set open
to the Church by her King and Head, while the Mission Stations may soon,
through the blessing from on high, rank among vacancies calling for pastors to
take the oversight of them in the Lord. •

APPENDIX.
The number of Famimes connected witli the Church is retunied as 27,918,
only 671 inori' than last year, not taking into n(!connt the allowance niiuh' for nou-
rt'iiorting setthid coiigrenationH ; but that tlie inciensc haa been conttiderably
greater we may wairantaltly conclude from the fact that some of the congregations
which gave the number of families belonging to tln'm last year liave not given
thorn tliis year. Proceeding 6n the 8Hsunii»tion tlint each family contains on an
average five persons — the assumption adopted in some of the previous {{cports of
your Uommittee — it may be aifinued that upwards of 140,000 jtersons, young and
old, are under the pastoral oversight of a stated ministry, or enjoy such occasional
means of grace as Presbyteries are able to atford.
SiNOLE Persons not connected with congregations number 4,175. It might
be expected that these would be found in the Rcj)orts of Congiegations in the
larger towns and cities, and reference to the Statistical Tables will show that this
is tlie case.
Your Committee has still reason — and for this tlu-y would express their tlinnk-
fulness to the Kedeemer of His people — to congratulate the A.ssembly on the
increase of Communicants, tlie number this year being given at 49,315, apj)arently
less, it is true, than the numbers reported for either of tlie previous years, but
actually greater when account is made of the congregations Irom which reports
liave not been received at all, or wliich Imve not made any entry in the column
designed for such information. In confirmation that there is an increase, a refer-
ence to the Tables sliows that 5,847 have been added to the Church in the course
of the year ; of these, 2,924 on their own profes.sion of their faith in Christ, and
the diminution has been 3,533, thus leaving a gain of 2,314, or 141 more than last
year.
Of the Bai'TIsms, amounting to 4,703, those of adults were 123, and of chil-
dren 4,580, being 122 fewer than those reported last year.
Of the numbers in Religious Classes, 34,267 are in Sabbath Schools, and
9,269 in Bible Classes.
Elders are reported at 1,987 ; other OFFicE-BEAREita at 3,091 ; and Sab-
bath School Teachers at 4,094, giving an average of between eight and nine
scholars to each teacher.
The aggregate Volumes in Libraries amount to 98,189, and of these 86,658
belong to Sabbatli Seliools.
Sittings in Church add up to 141,190, an increase over those of last year.
Missionary Associations rej)orted 163, or one less than for the previous
year.
Forty Churches and twenty Manses have been built or repaired during the
year.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT.
Taking next the "Financial Statements" forwarded by Presbyteries, and
collecting the aggi-egates, we have the following results :
The Stipend promised was $229,885, and the amount actually paid was
$232,564.75, an increase of $2,679.75, and an increase over the amount paid last
year of $11,283. 01. This gives each Ministers an average of $700 on the whole
sum paid, but last year the average was $702. It is pleasing to observe that, on
the whole, the Church is improving in the matter of ministerial support, although
there is great room yet for advancement in that direction. A glance at the Returns
from Congregations will show that in some instances a most inadequate remunera-
tion is paid; and your Committee cannot but think that if Presbyteries would deal
with these as they should, they would be awakened to a sense of their duty, and
communicate in all good things as the Lord has prospered them for the support of
those by whom they are taught in the Word.

It IS painful to have to stnto that therfi is an I'ncrpase of Arurars ok Stm'Rnd
over the amount rciiorttxl last year, the entire Hum being $4,301. Mtt. It is had to
huvy .such an entry at all, it is worao to hear of it.s inereaHo. And it i.sto tit- feared
that the facts are worse than figures, for the Committee have simply colU'cted the
arrears reported without correcting discrepancies between tlie columns in congre-
gational returns headed "Stipend Promised" and "Stipend Paid." In the case
of some thesi- arrears must be of more than one year's standing, as the report of
stipend paid for 1873-74 is in excess of stipend ]>romised. The only l'rcsl)yteries
in which there are no arrears are Kingston, Hamilton, Pari.s, Chatham and Huron
— five out of ninetiien.
Passing to the amount raised for building CuiMiniEH and Manheh, we find
the large sum of .i(ir)r»,87t5.ft7, somewhat less than the amount raised for the same
purjioHc last year, but still i)roving that the i>eople are exerting themselveu to
provide coinfortalde editices in whitiii to worship the God of their fathers, or for
those who minister to them in word and ordinance.
Other expenditure for strictly congregational purposes has been $89, 540. 27»
and the total contributed for Stip(;nd, Church and Manse l)uilding and the pur-
pose just mentioned, was 1477,981.99, or an increase over the sum raised for the
same objects la.st year of $14, 591. ()6. Taking the clear gain in the membership
of the Church to be 2,314, this would give an average of about $6 to each.
The total amount contrii)uted for, the S(;heme.s ok the Church has been
$55,155.29^, a considerable failing off from last year. This sum is made up as
follows: — For the Coi;LE(iE Fund, $11,972.17; for the Home Mission Fund,
$17,484.25 ; for the Foueiun Mlssion Fund, $8,711,684 ; for the Widows and
Orphans', Aoed and Infirm Ministers' Fund, J3,836.37 ; for the Assembly
Fund, $2,966.80^; for French Evangelization, $4,073.05; for the Kankakee
Mission, $2,148,98. The contributions from Sabbath Schools for Missionary
purposes were $4,428.69. On the following Schemes the returns show an increase
to a smaller or larger amount over the contributions reported last year : Foreign
Missions, Widows and Oi-phans', &c., Assembly Fund, Sabbath School ; on all
the others there is a decrease.
A column had been added to the blank forms prepared for the purpose of
ascertaining the amount raised for College Buildings, and the returns give
$28,645.49. If we suppose that the .sum raised in the Synod of Montreal went
towards the building of the Presbyterian College in the city of Montreal, and
which amounts to $18,127.61, there would remain for Knox College $15,517.88,
But there is evidently some mistake in the division thus made, or in the reports
given in, or it may be in both, as the statement of the Treasurer of the Church,
in the May number of the Home ami Foreign Record, gives the amount received
for the new College building in Toronto as $24,569.16.
Under the heading " Benevolent objects not otherwise specified," $24,448.20
have been reported.!
Total contributions for all purposes amount to $585,899.91, or an increase
over the sum reported last j'eai of $34,998.19.
One hundred and ninety-six congregations, or twenty more than last year,
report Manses for their Ministers, and three rented houses.

The average contributions for Missions by Sabbath Schools, reckoned on the

Tables have been prepared from the congregational returns giving a summary
according to Presbyteries and Synods of the Statistical Reports and Financial
Statements.
To the Table of Averages colnmns have been added showing the amount con-
tributed per family as well as per communicant, for each pui-pose. It was thought
only proper to do so, because in some Presbyteries the number of families is large
in proportion to the number of communicants as compared with others, and it is
by rate per family thai, some Presbyteries, if not all, raise their funds for local
purposes, and that the General Assembly assesses for the expenses of its meetings.
A perusal of this Table is suggestive of jome gratifying reflections, and of
others of an opposite character. The Presbytery standing highest in average con-
tribution per family for stipend paid is that of Hamilton, $13.15 ; the next
that of Ontario, $10.45 ; the third, Paris, $9.95;,and the fourth, Chatham, $9.78;
while the four lowest are Manitoba, Stratford, Durham and Bruce. The four
Presbyteries raising most liberally per communicant for stipend are Chatham,
$6.45 ; Kingston; $6.03 ; Cobourg, $5.71 ; and Toronto, $5.30 ; and the four
lowest are Stratford, Guelph, Huron and Durham. For Schemes of the Church,
Hamilton, Montreal, Toronto and C'.tario contribute most largely per family,
and Bruce, Durham, Owen Sound and Manitoba give least, while Montreal, To-
ronto, Ontario and Kingston give most liberally per communicant, and Guelph,
Dui'ham, Manitoba and Owen Sound least so. For all purposes the Presbyteries
of Hamilton, Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal stand highest, and those of Strat-
ford, Huron, Owen Sound and Durham lowest; per family, and Ottawa, Bruce,
Toronto and Manitoba highest, and Guelph, Owen Sound, Huron and Durham
lowest per communicant. It will be seen that for the puq)oses mentioned Ham-
ilton stands first in average contribution per family, as it does also for congrega-
tional puriioses. It must be acknowledged too that tlie distant Presbytery of
Manitoba, that is strictly speaking Missionary, is exerting itself nobly, and
affording promise of greater things at no remote date. Looking at all circum-
stances, may it not be said that while some have done well — and the remark must
be put in this modified form, for, lookuig at the figures in that Table, it cannot
be afhrmed that all have done well — it has excelled them all. Certainly Mani-
toba may put to the blush more than one of the Presbyteries of the Province of
Ontario.
A survey of the whole field presented in this Report calls upon us to thank
God,* and entitles us to take courage. God hcs done great things for us, whereof
we are glad. May He continue to grant peace within the walls and prosperity
within the palaces of our beloved Zion.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
I. That Presbyteries be enjoined to procure from congregations, and forward,
to the Convener of the Committee on Statistics, their annual returns at the dates-
specified in the blanks fui'nished.
II. That vacant congregations and Mission Stations be required to forward
full and accurate reports, as well as those having settled Pastors, and that Pres-
byteries see to it that these be sent in.

P.S. — Taking account of returns which \,ere too late of being received to be
entered in their proper places, we find that the number of regular charges is 650;
of families, 28,260 ; of communicants, 50,702; of S. S. pupils, 35,020; of vols, on
libraries, 103,707; of sittings in Churches, 143,575, and of missionary associations
1.65.
Stepend paid amounted to $237,901.25. Total contributions, for strictly
congregational purposes, $103,247 82; for schemes of the Church, $55,994.12^,
and for all pui-poses, $619,359.30; an increase over the amount reported last year
of $68,457.58. K. T.
FOEEIGN MISSION EEPORT.
1873-4.
A review of the Foreign Mission work of the Church during the past year
calls for humiliation and thankfulness : for humiliation, because a vigorous and
prosperous Church has done so little to promote a work so closely identified with
the glory of Christ and the salvation of men ; for thankfulness, because a measure
of progress has been made, and men and means are now forthcoming to an extent
which warrants the Church in taking a decided step in advance.
The work among the Red Indians on the Saskatchewan has been carried on
during the year under difficulties which indicate that Prince Albert is likely to
become a less valuable centre for the evangelization of the aborigines than it was
at the time of its first occupation. The Plain Crees, with whom the mission has
chiefly to do, are gradually moving farther west after the buffalo, on which they
are so largely dependent for food. And the result is that they come less fre-
quently and in smaller numbers to the neighbourhood of tfie mission. In order
to reach them, the missionary would require to accompany them to ttieir camp-
ing grounds on the plains, wliioh are now froc^uently 200 miles distant. The
formation recently of a considerable settlement around the mission of whites and
half-breeds must also tend to keep the ladiai' at a greater distance. When
ground was broken at Prince Albert, it was nearly 400 miles to the nearest settle-
ment. Now a very considerable settlement has sprung up around the mission
itself. Mr. Nisbet states that there are 44 families and 23 single persons, making
a population of 288, which is likely to be largely increased during the present
summer by the influx of new settlers. While Prince Albert may therefore be
growing less important as a centre of foreign missionary effort, it is daily assum-
ing interest as a point from which home missions may yet do a noble work. The
unsettled state of the Indians in reference to the manner in which their territorial
rights may be dealt with by the Canadian authorities has also exerted an unfa-
vourable influence for the time being upon efforts for their good. Notwithstand-
ing these difficulties, good work has been done during the year, partly among the
white population and partly among the aborigines.
Mr. Nisbet writes, " The church is veil filled every Sabbath. We have fort-
nightly Sabbath service in the house of one of the settlers six miles west of this,
and an occasional service in another's seven miles east, and in each of these sections
a fortnightly prayer meeting is held. In the church a Sabbath school, Bibleclass,
and weekly lecture are maintained. The ""ommunion was held November 30th,
when eleven names were added to the roll. Five of those received were members cf
our Church in Ontario and Manitoba, five were connected with trte Bpi )pal Church
in this coii'^try, and one was received on examinatioa. There are 44 names on
the Communion Roll. There have been 21 baptisms since September, 1872. Of
those baptized, three were adult Indians and six were Indian children. There
have been two marriages during the same period, one of which was that of an
Indian couple.
•58
APPENDIX.
In
i II!
The Indians do not come about the miasion to the same extent now as in
past years, and when any large number is in the neighbourhood, they usually
make their camp about two raues from the mission premises. The Christian In-
dians are regiilar in their attendance at Church, but very few of the heathen
come to th(; public services ; nevertheless many of them hear a great deal of
Christian truth from their. private talks with, Mr. McKay." Mr. Nisbet alsj
mentions that there are at present four Indian children, two boys and two girls,
under the charge of the mission.
During Mr. Nisbet's absence in Canada the charge of the mission devolved
entirely on Rev. Edward Vincent, who reached Prince Albert immediately before
the senior missionary left for what proved a somewhat lengthened visit to Ontario.
The chaugii decided upon last lyeai- by the committvie, involving the abandonment
of the farming operations which were necessary in the earlier stages of the work,
have been carried out and nearly completed by Messrs. Uisbet and Vincent, and
it is hoped that in future they will be found beneficial. Rtrv. Edward Vincent has
tendered to the committee his resignation of his position as a missionary to the
Indians. His reasons are given at length in a document, in which he presents with
clearness and force his views in reference to the present unsettled condition of the
country, and the best mode of accomplishing the work which requires to be done
among the Indians of the North-west. From the decided conviction wliich Mr.
Vincent expressed in reference to his duty to retire from the work, the committee
felt themselves under the necessity of accepting his resignation. This was accord-
ingly done, and the acceptance will t:ike effect on the 1st July. From the time
of his arrival in Manitoba until that date, Mr. Vincent has been instructed to
place himself under the direction of the Home Mission Committee.
During the year, new ground has been occupied by the appointment of Mr.
George Flett to labour among the Indians in the neighbourhood of Fort Pelly.
Mr. Flett, on account of his thorough familiarity with the Cree language and
acquaintance with Indian habits and modes of thought, has very special
adaptation for usefulness in this field of labour. He has been vt-ry highly
recommended ti the committee as an earnest and devoted Christian worker. Mr.
Flett has received a cordial welcome from the officers of the Hudson Bay Company,
and has commenced his labours under favourable auspices. He finds a large
number of Indians in the region, but they are much scattered and consequently
difficult of access. We hope to hear from time to time good accounts of the
labours of this earnest Christian layman.
In accordance with the instructions of last Assembly, your committee took
steps to select for the young women then reported as preparing tor foreign
service, a suitable field, ind to send them to it. After careful inquiry, India was
chosen as on the whole the most promising. And as the Canada Presbyterian
Church has no missionaries under whose protection and guidance they could
labour, it was decided to place them under the control and care of the Board of
Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in the United States. The brethren
of that Board in the very kindest manner undertook this duty, and aided in
every way in their power your committee in carrying out the instructions of
last Assembly. Arrangements having been completed. Misses Rodger and Fair-
weather sailed in the latter part of October from New York, along with a lady
whom the American Presbyterian Board were sending to India, and in due time
reached their destination in safety. When last heard from they were at Allahabad,
where they had met a cordial welcome from the missionaries of che American
Presbyterian Church, and where they were actively engaged in the study of the
language. As soon as they are prepared for active service they will find wide
doors of usefulness open before them.
In Formosa, the year has been one at once of trial and of encouragement to
our missionary. The manifest blessing which attended Mr. McKay's labours at
the outset of his work has not forsaken him. The succoss which so early crowned
Jiis preaching has roused opposition and bitter persecution. Of northern Formosa
it may be said that a wide door and effectual is opened, " and there are many
.adversaries." Mr, McKay writes, "The enemy ha^ been aroused, and, as of old,

has bemi active night and day in endeavouring to crash the Lord's work in its
beginnings. To accomplish this, mandarins, literati, and soldiers esjiecially, have
combined their efforts. In the numerous villages whicli dot tlie country inland,
men and women have been beaten and shamefully abused on account of attending
service on the Lord's Day. A convert who lives about a mile from here was asked
a few months ago to assist in purchasing articles for idol worship. He replied he
could not consistently do so, as he no longer bowed before things made by men's
hands. An evening or two after, the same party, followed by 30 armed men, went
to his dwelling, broke the door, beat his wife, mother and sister, dragged himself
about the room, and finally left him for dead. The house of another worshipper
at Chiwn-nhi was entered by 40 soldiers, who ransicked the whole place, and
snatched an infant from its mother's arms and trampled it to death. At Go-ko-
khin, one of the first who cast away tablets and idols was ordered by the owner of
the house in which he lived to cease going to the chapel, or else he would drive
him out of the house. The convert replied, "You can do that and much more;
but to drive me from the true God, you and all your host can never accomplish. "
It is truly matter of thankfulness that these men "took joyfully the spoiling of
their goods. " It is unnecessary to multiply cases, as I have referred to one in
connection with each chapel.
The crowds which at first thronged to listen to the preaching of our mission-
ary appear to have fallen of. No doubt the sense of novelty had something to do
with collecting the multitudes who, for a season, waited on the preaching of your
Missionary, but Mr. McKay now states it as his conviction that a large luurber
of the Sek-hoan and Chinese had in some way acquired the notion that the gospel
was to minister directly to their worldly advantage. In the days of our Lord
there were many who followed him "not because they saw his miracles, but
because they did eat of the loaves and were filled;" and we need not marvel if
the idolaters and ignorant natives of Formosa are found animated with sijnilar
motives, nor need we wonder if many of them, when disappointed in their worldly
expectations, have gone back to their idols.
Amid these trials and discouragements, your missionary has been cheered by
the stedfastness and fidelity of the converts and the progress of the Lord's work.
In uhe last letter received from him, dated the 17th of February, Mr. McKay
writes : " It is now about a year since I admitted five into communion on profes-
sion of faith, and I rejoice in being able to state that they have faithfully followed the
Lord Jesus and fearlessly testified to the truth unto this day. The only man I brought
from the south commemorated the djdng love of Jesus with u"* a year ago. Since
that time he has been cruelly murdered and beheaded in the wooils ; his head-
less body is yonder by the winding path, but his soul is in the highest heavens
with the Lord of Glory. Last Sabbath we observed the Lord's Supper at Go-ko-
khin, where the first chapel was erected. There I admitted four old and three
young men, who have stedfastly followed the Lord since they first heard the
gospel. The five who were admitted last year were present, so that e.xactly
twelve nati'-e converts sat around the table of the Lord. In a quiet, retired spot,
away from the displays of heathenism and the inquisitive gaze of outsiders, with
our usual hearers present, we had a precious communion. I believe the Master
was with us. I never enjoyed a sweeter communi( n in America, Scotland, or my
dear native laud. Several of the hearers seemed moved, and all a])peared serious
and thoughtful during the services. If any heart was touched, if any soul was
awakened, to Jehovah alone be the everlasting praise and glory.
At a place called San-teng-po, several miles to the east, the people have just
completed a small, neat chanel, entirely at their own expense. I told them that if
they really wanted to serve the living God, to put their trust in the Lord Jesus,
fear neither persecution nor death, and build a house to the Lord. I visited
them a few weeks ago, and was delighted to find the parents teaching their
children the everlasting gospeh A number of small boys met me on the way,
.and all were able to sing our beautiful Chinese hymns ; the very youngest, three
years old, could sing. The little girls are kept in dark rooms, and do not appear
with their brothers as in western lands. On Sabbath I observed father, sou

grandson and great grandson sitting on a bench together, singing the praises of
the Lord. Thus in the midst of opposition and corniption, the Lord is blessing
his own work."
Mr. McKay adds, in a postscript to his letter, that since writing the above,
he had had a glorious meeting in his house at Tnmsui, which he luis to use as a
chapel. It is worthy of ndte, as indicative of the '^onverts and tiie hold whicli
the truth has taken of them. "The 4th day of tlie first Chinese month is
observed by all tlie idolaters, from north to south ami from east to west. It is
the day on which they welcome back the spirits. Thit* year it fell on the 20th
inst. The converts in the country fled from the displays of the idolaters, and
came down the river in junks, and brouglit all their little boys, about the size of
Sabbath school children in Canada. My house was crowded from early in tlie
morning until late at night. The whole day was spent in explaining the everlast-
ing gospel, in singing and praying to the Lord our God. I enjoyed the meeting
exceedingly."
Mr. McKay expresses great joy at the prospect of the sjieedy arrival of a
medical missionary to co-operate with him So strongly has he l)een imjiressed
wHth the value of the healing art as a handmaid to the gosjiel, that with the aid
of the resident medical man of the English community, he commenced hospital
work more than a year ago. The foreign residents of Tanisui also aided liim in
the work by liberal oontributions to its support. Mr. McKay regards the hospi-
tal as, all things considered, quite successful. Up to the time of his writing 1423
persons had received attendance and heard the Gospel.
It is with much pleasure that your conmiittee liave to report that they have
secured, subject to the ajiproval of the Assembly, the services of Dr. J. B. Fraser
as medical missionary to Formosa, a gentleman whom tliey regard as pos.sessiiig
in a very high degree the (lualifications for tlie position. Dr. Fraser is a son of
Rev. William Fraser, of Bond Head, one of the honoured clerks of this Assembly.
After com])letiiig a full medical course, and jiractising medicine for two years,
Dr. Fraser decided to study for the Gospel ministry; and lie has just completed a
more than ordinarily successful course of theological study in Knox College. He
will be prepaietl to leave Canada for (^'hina with his family some time in autumn.
Etlying tull^- on the approval of the Assembly to the steji which they liave taken,
your cimimittee have recjuested Dr. Fraser to seizure the requisite outfit for liis
work; auu they trust also tliat arrangements may be made for his visiting, prior
to his departure for the foreign held, as many as possible of the congregations of
the Church.
It is the ideasing duty of your committee to repci' tJiat the Foreign Mission
is at pres»'Ut in. a satisfactory iK)sition. The receipt^! indicate a growing interest
in the work of the evangelization of the heathen, and tiu> balance on hand warrants
the Church to go forward more boldly in the work. From the following state-
ment of receipts and payments it appears that there has been an incrca.se in the
income during th" year as compared with that which preceded it of $1 , .'K)2 06,
and that the balance now on hand is *y?i280 69 greater than that which was
reported to the la.st Assembly. This state of matters in Xh^' more gratifying', as no
hj)eeial means have been employed during the p^ust year u- stimulate the liberality
of the Church. It cannot be questioned that with a little additional effort tl '•
receipts may be greatly increased. The following is the financial statement for

butions of the Church and the withdrawal of Mr Vincent from the Indian work, not
only warrants the Cluucli in sending Dr. Eraser to Formosa, but also in instruct-
ing the committee wliich may be appointed to select and send forth a third mis-
sionary to China at the earliest moment practicable.
In conclusion, your committee offer for the adoption of the Assembly the
following resolutions, viz. : —
1. That the action of the Foreign Mission Committee in appointing Dr. J.
B. Eraser as medical missionary to Formosa be cordially approved of.
2. That the Foreign Mission Committee be recommended to select and send
forth a third missionary to Formosa as soon as practicable.
3. That any of the presbyteries of the Church to whom application may be
made by the Foreign Mission Committee be authorized to ordain Dr. J. B. Eraser
and any other missionary selected for Foreign Mission service in accordance with
the above resolutions.
All which is respectfully submitted.

REPOKT OF THE KANKAKEE MISSION.
The extraordinary origin of this mission imparted an interest to it that
attracted the attention of the Christian world to the Rev. C. Chiniquy and his
great work among the French Canadians settled in the state of Illinois. To see
a whole community throwing off the fetters of Rome and claiming it as their
right to read God's Word and ajiproach his throne without the mediation of a '
priest or saint, was a grand sight, such as might make angels shout for joy. And
the subsequent history of the mission for years was deeply interesting too, as it
displayed the st II ig faith and noble courage of the converts, amid all the at-
tempts of Rome lo regain her power over them and bring them back to their
former bondage. Put fourteen years have calmed the excitement, and brought the
congregation of St. Anne with its mission school to take its place side bv side with
other congregations in the great work of the Lord. It is not easy for your com-
mittee to throw an interest around the mission other than might be found in
many of our congregations; still tliey think that the Church will be gratified
to learn how it prospers in the Lord.
A deputation, consisting of Rev. T. McPherson and the convener of the
committee, visited the mission last fall and spent a week there, inquiring irtoits
stale and prospects, and giving such counsel and encouragement as they thought
would further the cause of Christ. A few extracts from tlieir report will put the
Assembly in possession of the facts elicited, and enable them better to understand,
what is the present condition of the mission.
St. Anne has a population of between 400 and 500, with a thickly peopled
country all around. The inhabitants are chiefly French Canadians. When they
settled there they were Roman Catholics, but the great majority of liiem now
are Protestants. There are in the village four Protestant churches — Episco-
palian, Baptist (both very small), American Presbyterian, with 64 families and
133 members, and Mr. Chiniquy's, with 162 families and 353 members.
62
APPENDIX.
It will be remembered that the old church and school were burned down a
few years ago, but Mr. Chiniquy has succeeded in erecting another building, part
of which is used as the church and another part as the school-house. In this
church jwe held meetings on live consecutive evenings, with an attendance of
from 100 (a rainy night) to 200. On Sabbath the attendance was over 200. It
was the Communion Sabbath. Only 80 partook of the Lord's Supper. We were
careful in examining the roll of members and families connected with the con-
grec;ation. We had a list prepared by a disaffected party in the village, and
comparing it with the list furnished by the Clerk of Suasion, we found a substan-
tial agreemen*;, shewing 162 families, with a membership of 358. Of course
many of them reside at a coHsiderable distance, and can but seldom enjoy pri-
vileges. Some years ago the number of families was reported as being consider-
ably larger than at [)resent, and we have since been hearing of other families be-
ing added to the Cliurch ; we inquired into the apparent discrepancy, and found
that while some few families had from various reasons become disaffected and
connected themselves elsewhere, yet a very large number had left the bounds of
the congregation. We accidentally met a Frenchman from Indiana (who
formerly had resided in St. Anne), who was travelling the country on business,
and he assured us that around where he now lived there were over 50 families
who had at one time lived in St. Anne, but who had emigrated to Indiana ; he
knew of some other settlements in the same state where many from St. Anne
now lived, but he could not tell the exact number of families. We called on a
member of the congregation who was preparing to go west. He told us that his
boys had left tor Kansas a few years ago and now he was going to join them. He
knew as many as 30 families that had gone from St. Anne or neighbourhood to
that same state, who were brought from Kome through Mr. Chinit^uy, and who
were now living in their new home as Protestants. Emigration will thus easily
account for the difference between the numbers now and some years ago. We
believe that this emigration will continue, for as the children grow up they want
more land and they musk seek for it where land is cheaper, and the crops more
certain than they seem to be in that part of Illinois.
We examined the session records for the last 3i years, and found that 33 new
names were added to the roll, of whom 24 were converts from Rome. We saw
two men, with their wives, renounce the errors of Rome and sign a declaration to
that effect and join our Church. They looked intelligent and devout. We also
saw a young lady who had been sent to a nunnery in Chicago that she might be-
come a nun, but she was now waiting upon the ministrations of Mr. Chiniquy.
The Sabbath school is very fluctuating. The morning we were there, there
were not over 30 scholars present, but we were assured the attendance was
usually much larger. We think the school could be made much more interest-
ing and attractive. One pleasing feature, however, we must notice. Some
grown up men and women attend who learned to read after they were grown
up and had left the Romish Church
We spent one whole day and part of two other days in examining the school
connected with the mission. There are three teachers employed. The Rev.
Mr. Lafontaine teaches the more advanced classes in French, Latin, Greek and
mathematics ; an assistant male teacher takes the English, and an assistant
female teacher the junior division in both languages. This last teacher has re-
ceived all her education at this school, and it is gratifying to see her filling this
position so well. The Shorter Catechism is repeated daily by the advanced
scholars, and the Bible is read by all who can read. We did not find the classes
so far advanced as might have been expected. This was partly accounted for by
the fact that the two languages — French and English — were taught to the same
children, and also that some of the older scholars had been out of school all summer
and had just retutaed. The average attendance for the past year has been about
85. We took tlie liberty of visiting and examining the district school, and
found it in a very good condition, with an energetic teacher, and an average at-
tendance for the previous month of 52 1-7. No French is taught, but the
Bible is read daily. The teacher receives $500 for 11 months. Altogether the
young of St. Anne are very well off for education.

The dei)utation felt that a very important part of their work was to examine
into the financial affairs of the mission. We accordingly s; ent much time in examin-
ing accounts and vouchers, and are able to furnish the following abstract. This, of
course, is altogether different from the account of the Assembly's Treasurer — his

Your committee would draw attention to the large contribution raised by the
congregation of St. Anne, and would express a hope that now that they have
appointed a committee to attend to the financial aifairs of the congregation, they
\\-ill be able to do more than ever they have done for the support of ordinances
among themselves. Your committee has learned with great pleasure that through
the labours of Mr. Chiniq^uy and the Christian liberality of friends in Britain, the
debt remaining on the bmlding has been paid oif.
Your committee, after carefully considering all the matters connected with
this mission, are unanimously of opinion that the time has come when the con-
gregation of St. Anne could bear to have Mr. Chiniquy removed from them; and
whue another could discharge the duties of the pastorate, Mr. Chiniquy could be
far more usefully employed in superintending our French evangelization work in the
Province of Quebec. There is not perhaps another man on this continent who
is so peculiarly adapted for this work. It gives the committee pleasure to be able
to state that he has expressed his readiness to obey the call of the Church ; and
that the session and congregation, on having these views presented to them, voted
that they would place no obstacles in the way of his removal. Your committee
feel satisfied that were this action taken, it would hot be long ere the two Pres-
byterian congregations of the village would be united under one pastor, and
present a more formidable opposition to the pretensions of Rome than they can
do apart; and in addition to this the united congregation could be ecclesiastically
connected with the Church to which they properly belong. Gould some such
arrangement as this be carried out, Mr. Chiniquy might then be able to devote
some part of his time to writing his book on Kome — part of which he has alrttady

published, and which has been so well received by the Christian public ; and also
he could occasionally visit other parts where his services might be needed. His
visit to the Maritime Provinces last summer is matter of history ; the assault
made upon him by the Roman Catholic rabble, encouraged by some of the leading
men of the place, must endear him to this Church and point him out as apowerfiu
enemy of Rome. And his' still more recent visit to Britain shews that he can be
far more usefully employed than ministering to the congregation of St. Anne.
Testimonials have been received from many leading men in England and Scotland
as to the good work he has done there; and most urgent letters have been received
retiuesting the Church to allow him to spend six or eight months next year in
Great Britain, and lecture on the errors of Rome in the cities and towns.
Mr. Chinir[uy explained to your committee the circumstances connected with
his recent baptism, but they felt that it was not within their province to consider
-this matter, and so took no action on it. Tliey earnestly hope that eveiything
will be ovemiled for the good of the mission, and that the Assembly will be led
to adopt such measures as will greatly advance the cause of Christ among our
French-speaking countrymen.
All of whiclx is respectfully submitted.
A. A. DRUMMOND, Convener.
EEPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON BUXTOU FINANCE.
At last General Assembly three gentlemen were appointed to audit the financial
statement of your committee. The long illness and subsequent death of the late Mr.
William Clark, treasurer of the fund, interfered with the carrying out of the As-
sembly's finding. On the death of Mr. Clark, the committee met and agreed to
place the books and documents of the treasurer in the hands of the auditors,
which was immediately done. Owing to the fact that the books had never before
been efficiently audited, and that they extended over a period of fourtCv^n years,
embracing the expenditure of some $20,000, the auditors, after consultation,
notified your committee that they were unable to devote the time necessary to
an efficient examination of the books and a comparison of these with the vouchers ;
and recommended the appointment of a regular accountant. The committee, how-
.ever, were indisposed to put the fund to such expense, the more so that one of
their own number consented to devote some time to a careful audit of the books.
This has been done, and the following statement shows the position of the fund
.on the 12th of March, 1874 :—
ASSETS.
Invested in the Huron and Erie Saving and Loan Society —
20 shares of accumulating stock — par value $ 376 00

';leaving a balance m favour of the fund invested of three thousand two hundred
..and thirty-eight dollars and thirty-three cents.
Your committee have resolved to dispose of the mortgages at present held by
them, with the view of investing the entire fund in, building society stock, from
which they will be able to realize interest at the rate of nine per cent, per annum.
The committee desire to place upon record their appreciation of the valuable
: services rendered in connection with the Buxton Mission and its financial adminis-

wliieh were (!ver cheerfully rendered, and which tended much to place the fund in
the 8ati.sfa(!tory condition in w uich it now is.

annual grant of $250 from the fund to the support of the Buxton congregation.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

Telesphore Brouillette has finished his theological curriculum, and is ready
for license.
Philip Blouin, Theodore Bonchard and Zadok Lefebvre who, during the past
session have been attending the Montreal Normal School, will be ready for
colporteur work from the beginning of JiUy, for three months.
Your committee have pleasure in reporting the honourable standing taken
by tlie French students in our College competitions ; and that they have already
learned of at least five additional students who are likely to enter College next
session. The labours of the able and accomplished French Professor are in-
creasingly appreciated.
It is very desirable that those familiar with fields where missionary effort
can be ])rosecuted with likelihood of permanent success, coonmunicate at once
with the convener, and that the effort to unify and systematize our French
work, be carried out as speedily as possible.

APPENDIX.
EEPOET ON THE STATE OF RELIGION.
In earnest desire for the advancement of Christ's cause, Paul said to Baiiiabos,
" Lot us visit our brethren in every city where \vc liave preachetl the Word of the
Lord, and tea how they do. " Simihir to the interest which Paul expressed in
the spiritual welfare of those among whom he and Barnabas had preached the
Wont and instituted the ordinances of Christ's appointment, is that of the
Assembly in the spiritual welfare of all the congregations under their care.
"What cannot be accomplished, nor attempted, in the way of visitation by super-
inteudeu.s or by deputies, is sought to be effected by tlie instrumentality tliat
may readil)' be employeil in all the congregations. It is the desire of tlie
Assembly to "see how they do;" and for this end (|uestions, framed in no
inquisitorial spirit, but prompted by earnest solicitude about the welfare of those
of whom they have the oveisight, are addressed to all the sessions within ihe
limit of the Assembly's operations.
To these questions answers have been returned by 164 sessions. This, it is
believed, is the largest number of returns sent in in any year in reply to similar
inquiries. But, with anything like the eai nest attention which the importance
of the subject demands, this number might have been doubled. The returns were
furnished by the sessions to the clerks of their respective Presbyteries. Reports
based upon these were prepared by the great majority of the Presbytery clerks for
their several Sj'nods ; and reports, more or less complete, have been forwarded to
your committee by each synod, either through its clerk, or the convener of its
Committee on the State of Religion. From this it is obvious that to the state of
religion much attention ha.s been given by the Presbyteries and Synods of the
Church.
Your Committee would now present p. synopsis of the Synodical Reports,
supplementing these, in some instances, by information or by suggestions from the
reports of Presbyteries, many of which have been forwarded along with the
Synodical Reports. The attention of the Assembly is solicited to this fact, with
which your committee have been much impressed in studying the reports and
tabular statements which it was their duty to analyze ; namely, that those Pres-
byteries which, during the previous years that have passed since the Assembly
was constituted, have been giving much attention to this subject, seem now to
be giving still more, while those which, during the period referred to, have given
little attention to it, seem now to be giving less. From the Presbytery of Huron
and that of Sinicoe, the returns are singularly complete. From the former of
these Presbyteries, 18 returns have been sent in, equivalent to one from each of
its pastoral charges ; and from the latter 1 9 returns, equivaltmt to one from each
of its pastoral chfirgea, and, in addition to these, from a number of its mission
stations. On the other hand, the Presbytery of London, with 30 congregations,
which, according to the tabulated statement of 1872, sent in 5 returns, this year
sends in 4.
SYNOD OF MONTRKAL.
The report from the Synod of Montreal is complete and explicit. From it we
learn that in the Presbytery of Montreal much attention has been given to the
state of religion during the past year. " A committee was appointed, and
certain recommendations presented by it were adopted by the Presbytery, urging
congi-egations to send in reports; enjoining ministers to call the attention of their
people especially to the duties of family worship and the observance of the
Sabbath; calling for special efforts to check intemperance and to elevate public
sentiment on this question; and recommending a communicants' class in each
congregation, if practicable. Fifteen congregations returned answers to the ques-
tions of the Assembly's Committee." In the Presbytery of Ottawa, "a measure of
progress in things spiritual appears to have been enjoyed ; and in more than one
congregation the past year will be memorable for the marked advancement in
grace. " Fourteen congregations send in returns, against twelve last year. From
the Presbytery of Brockville two congregations have sent in returns. Up to the
meeting of Synod, no conference had been held in this Presbytery on the state of

religion ; but your committee are happy to learn from an authentic source that,
since the Synod, a very interesting conterence has been held. Three congrega-
tions in the Presbytery of Kingston send returns. At a recent metting, "a
solemn ami impressive conference was held, after which it was decided to make a
similar eonli rence part of the business at each meeting of the court."
In the Synod of Montreal, there has been much earnest labour in connection
with evangelistic services. " These services, we have reason to believe, hiivc been
productive of much spiritual benefit to the people as well as to the ministers
engagiul. The reports which come from the deputations conducting these services
give decided encouragement for the further prosecution of this good work."
SYNOD OF TORONTO.
from this Synod comes a full and carefully prepared report, containing state-
ments and suggestions which, before concluding, your committees will take leave
to present to the Assembly. In the Synod of Toronto, the Presl)ytery of Toronto
sends in 10 returns from sessions, Owen Sound 5, Simcoe 19, Ontario 10, and
Cobourg 8. " All the reports concur in setting forth an increase of mem-
bership, greater interest in Church work, and a better attendance on ordinances,
growing liberality, decrease in Sabbath profanation and intemperance." Meet-
mgs of special interest are referred to as having been held in Peterborough,
Cobourg, Millbrook, Port Hope, Baltimore and Cold Sj)riugs.
SYNOD OF HAMILTON.
Owing to the absence of the convener of the Synod's committee, the tabulat-
ing of the returns and the collation of the facts presented had to be entrusted
to another brotiier, who cheerfully and efficiently discharged the duty thus
unexpectedly devolved upon him. In the Presbytery of Hamilton, returns come
from 8 sessions; Paris, 12 ; Guelph, 14 ; Durham, 4 ; Boner, 4. " There is a
spirit of waiting desire for times of refreshing from the Lord's presence breatlied in
some of the returns, wliile others lament coldness and absence of spiritual life
and power. Let our acknowledgments be made to the Lord that His presence is
felt among us, by His work making silent but steady onward progress."
SYNOD OF LONDON.
Tlxe Presbytery of Huron sends returns from 1 8 sessions, with a remarkably
full and instructive report. It is surprising that the Presbyteries of London and
Chatham should present returns from only 4 and 3 sessions respectively, since in
these Presbyteries the subject has obviously not been overlooked, and reports are
furnished by them both, as well as by the Synod with which they are connected.
In the Presbytery of Stratford returns have been received from 9 sessions. In the
report of tliat Presbytery reference is made to "an interesting and an important
work of grace in the congregation of Mitchell, " of " the origin, nature, extent,
and results of which, however, no definite information has been received." Your
committee would respectfully suggest that, in the conference on the state of
religion, ample time should be given for verbal reports from those who are
able to speak of the movement in Mitchell, FuUerton, and in other places in
which " times of refreshing " have been enjoyed.
From a conjunct view of the reports just referred to, your committee gather
hese facts : That, in the congregations from which returns h^re been receivedt,
there has been in most cases a considerable increase in the "membership ; that
family worship is generally observed by heads of families that are members of the
Church ; that in almost every congregation there is a congregational prayer
meeting, and that in some there are district meetings for prayer, conducted by
Elders or other members of the Church, iu which considerable interest has been
manifested ; that the congregations, with few exceptions, have a Sabbath school
or schools, iu which many of the Elders as well as other members of the Church
engage in the instruction of the yonng, and that the schools are, in some degree,
altnough not so fully as they should be, sustained by the sympathy and aid of the
congregations ; that in the congregations there is a growing liberality in the
support of Gospel ordinances am.ong themselves, and that in many cases a more .

libi.':al su[iiioit is <iiveii to tin- scluMiies of the Church ; that the Sabbath is on
tlic wiiolc well oliscrvi'd, itlthoui^h comjilnints coine from various (quarters of
teiiiptatious to disreg.inl the holy daj' whi':;h are too readily yielded to ; that
intemiii'rancc is on the decrease, but that, in many communities, the drinking
usiiges of the day are still exerting a most baneful influence ; that in many con-
gregations tliere is a growing interest in the cause of Christ, as well as a more
regular attendance o" public ordinances ; and that, among young men and young
women, there is a greater readiness to in prove the opportunities afforded them
for Bible-clarjs instruction, while a goodly number of them have joined tiieni-
selves to the Lord in a perpetual covenant that sliall not be forgotten.
Your ConinilLcee rejoice in referring to these tokens for good ; but they can-
not conceal from the Asse'ably that those sending in returns lament, in some
cases, the disecration oi «-he Sabbatii, the prevaleucj of intemperance, and the
neglect of family worship.
In reply to the question addressed to sessions, whether any particular
hindrances to tlie advancement of Christ's cause could be specified, the answers
have been, for the most part, to the effect that no hindrances could be specified
as peculiar to their own neighbourhood — none but such as are obvious to all, and
lamented by Christ's peoy)le in all parts of the land. This, from tlie Report of
the Paris Presbytery, expresses a conviction which seems to be strong in the
minds of all who are longing for days of revival : " The one great hindrance to
the spread of Christ's Kingdom appears to be prevailing worldliness, manifest-
ing itself either in an inordinate desire to acquire earthly riches, or in a disposi-
tion to seek the highest happint'ss in the pleasures and gaieties which the present
world offers."
A very noticeable feature in the reports of Synods and Presbyteries is the
expression of deep interest in Evangelistic services— continuous meetings held in
congregations on successive days or evenings under the superintendence of the
pastor, aided by Eiders or such ot-°r Christian friends as he may invite. Such
meetings have frecpiently been held with the happiest results ; and the blessings
which has rested upon them leads us to doubt whether the general abandonment
of many ef the time-honoured days of preaching in connection with sacramental
occasions has been a wise thing.
In the carefully piepared report of the Toronto Synod, we find suggestions
to the effect that conferences on the state of religion should be held in all the
inferior Church Courts, beginning with the Session and ending with the Synod,
and that all interested be invited to take part in them ; that a special sederunt of
the General Assembly beset apart for considering the state of religion, and vieiving
it in all its important aspects ; that the holding of Evangelistic Services should
be encouraged ; that special efforts should be made to render the ordinary weekly
prayer-meetings more attractive and profitable ; and that the answers to the
questions on the state of religion should be read from the pulpit, and a sermon
bearing on vital religion preached at the same time.
The I'resbytery of Huron is "of opinion that interesting information might
be elicited by the (j^uestion, ' Is the week of prayer observed ?' and that a
question of the following kind might be useful, not only as a means of drawing
forth information, Jbut also as a means of suggesting a profitable exercise : — ' Are
any special means adopted for making the congregations more intiaiately acquaint-
ed with the Home and Foreign Missionary operations of our Church, or with
missionary operations in general ?' "
Your committee are of opinion that all the above suggestions oi the Toronto
Synod are well worthy of the earnest attention of the Assembly. With respect
to those of the Huron Presbytery, they would hesitate to recommend that a
specific question should be addressed to congregations respecting tlie observance
of the week of prayer, but they believe that much iuterestine information respect-
ing the observance of the " week of prayer " might well be given in reply to a
general question about circumstances or events favourably affecting the advance-
ment of Christ's cause in the various congregations of the Church. As to "special
means adopted for making the congregations more intimately acquainted with.
APPENDIX.
69
Home and Foreign Missionary operations," your com;nittee are of opinion that the
suggestion of the Presbytery of Huron as to a question in reference to these may
with much advantage be acted on.
Your coininittee do not offer any special recommendation in regard to Evan-
gelistic Services, inasmuch as that subject is to be brought in another form under
tho consideration of the Assembly.
Your commmittee would recommend that Ministers should be enjoined by
the Assembly to give special prominence in their preaching of the Gospel to the
all-sufficiency of Christ's work for the redemption of His people. To many ques-
tionable theori !S and spep-ulations of many kinds the attention of men is now
being called even from the pulpit^ of the Christian Church. But let our Ministers
be more than ever determined not to know anything among those to whom they
minister save Jesus Christ and Him crucified. There is only one Saviour : there
is only one way of salvation ; there is no salvation in any other ; ' ' neither is
there any other name under heaven given among men whereby Ave mu.st be saved."
They would recommend, moreover, that our people should ever be reminded by
their ministers of the necessiity of humble and habitual dependence on the gracious
Influences of the Holy Spirit. And besides being reminded of tliis, our people
should be reminded of the large encouragement which is being given in those very
days to wait upon God in earnest and importimate prayer for times of refreshing
from His presence. " Awake, north wind, and come thou south, and blow
upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out."
All of which is respectiully submitted. THOS. WARD ROPE, Convener.
REPORT OF BOARD OF MANAGEMENT OF KNOX COLLEGE.
The Board of Management of Knox College have to report that or the first
day oi October, 1873, the Rev. William McLaren, lately of Kno Church, Ottawa,
was, according to the instructions of the General Assembly, inducted into the
office of Professor of Systematic Theology by the Presbytery of Toronto;
further, that the Rev. Dr. Proudfoot, during the last half of the session, con-
ducted the classes in Homiletics, Pastoral Theology, and Church Government.
During the first half of the session instructions in elocution were given by Mr.
Taverner. The work of the session was carried on with much harmony and
efficiency.
It will be seen from the report of the Senate, herewith transmitted, that
there were 38 students in the Theological Department — 13 being of the first
year, 9 of the second, and 16 of the third. There were also 19 in the Preparatory
Department. Besides, a considerable number of young men having a view to the
ministry are prosecuting their studies in the University. While it is matter of
tnankfulness that the graduating class this year is exceptionally large, yet, in
view of the pressing wants of the Church, and especially of the Home Mis.sion
field, there is much need to use all legitimate means to induce young men of
suitable character and talents to study for the ministry, and especially to pray to
the Lord of the harvest to send forth labourers into His harvest. Unless a much
larger number of students can be obtained the Church will not be able to accom-
plish the great work entrusted to her, and upon which she lias entered.
From the lull and accurate financial statement accoi.ipanying this report, it
will be seen that the contributions to the ordinary fund of the College to May 1st
have amounted to $7,800 70. This leaves a deficiency in the ordinary revenue of
$1,802' 88, which is due to a deficit of $80 94 from last year, to the transference
of $1,000 from the Alexander estate to tlie Endowment Fund, and to a deficiency
of $721 94 in the revenue for tlie year terminating on the first day of April,
which may have been partially occasioned by the extraordinary efforts made to
erect a new college.
It will be also seen that the Endowment Fund now amounts to $6, 61 'J 10.
The contributions to the Bursary Fund have amounted to $1,983 (57, kvhich,
with a balance of $90 34 from last year, amounts to $2,074 12, all of whicli has
been expended, with the exception of $53 12,

APPENDIX.
The Board hag great pleasure ir, reporting that the amount subscribed for the
new college buildings is now $86,159. Of this sum $'22,871 82 have already
been jiaid. The contracts let amount to $73,680, but these do not include
heating apparatus, fencing and laying out grounds, and several other extra and
contingent expenses. In order to meet engagements with contractors, it has been
found necessary to borrow $10,000 from the Western Assurance Company,
giving as security a mortgage on the old college building and site.
It is gratifying to state that the work on the new buildings, the foundation
stone of which was laid on the first Thursday in April, is advancing rapidly, and
it is e.\pected that the whole will be completed early next year. Although much
has already been done, yet it is to be hoped that friends will not relax their
efforts, as it is not expected that the whole work can be completed without
large additional subscriptions, nor that the instalments as they become due can be
collected without much exertion. Thanks are due to several friends, but especially
to Principal Caven and Professors Gregg and McLaren, for their exertions and
perseverance in canvassing for subscriptions. Special thanks are also due to a
sub-coiiimittee of the Board, of which the Honourable Mr. McMurrich
is convener, and which is composed of several able business men in Toronto
in addition to members of the Board, for their great diligence and business skill
in maturing the plan of the building, letting contracts, and superintending the
whole work. It is felt by the members of the Board that a high honour has
been conferred on them by entrusting this great work to them without reservation,
and their only regret is that their term of office expires too soon to permit
them to report its completion, as an abiding monument of the Church's liberality,
and of its determination to spare no expense iieedful to secure an educated
ministry.
The Board has •. leasure also in reporting that His Excellency the Earl of
Dufferin, with the view of encouraging education, has offered to present a silver
medal, to be competed for by all theological students, as a prize for general
proficieiK.^, and tnat this offer has been suitably acknowledged and accepted.
Mr. Gunn's appointment has been continued till the close of next session of
the College.
The Board agreed to recommend that the lectureship in Homiletics, etc., etc.,
be coi'tinued until some permanent arrangement is made for teaching these
branches.
The Board also agreed to recommend that the salaries of the Professors in the
College be increased. This recommendation is made at the present juncture
especially, because the whole question of professors' salaries Will be brought before
the Assembly by the committee appointed last year to consider and report on this
matter".
All of which is most respectfully submitted.

APPENDIX.

Third, year : — James Bryant, J. R. S. Burnett, Isaac Campbell, John Camp*
bell, Hector Currie, J. B. Fraser, Simeon Fisher, Donald McKeracher, Hugh
McKellar, R. W. Leitch, Ben. Lyman, Peter Nicol, H. H. McPherson, G. &.
McRobie, John Somerville, Robert Thynne.
Mr. Henderson, (first year) is not as yet a duly enrolled student, but at the
instance of the Hamilton Presbytery, was permitted to attend the classes during
the second term of the session, it being understood that application should be
made by the Presbytery to the General Assembly, at its meeting in June next, to
have his cnse dealt with as a special one. The Senate are happy to concur with
the Presbytery of Hamilton in the propriety of making this application.
The following ab.stractof the several class reports is here g' /en.
Principal Cavcn had under his charge three classes — th.: cJenior Exegetical,
the Junior Exegetical, and the class in Biblical Criticism. Tlie Senior Exegetical
class was occupied during the first term with the interpretation of the Epistle to
the Hebrews, ch. 1 — 6; during the second term their work lay in the Book of Exodus.
Each student of the third year prepares a critical exercise with additions ; and
inasmuch as this year waL above the average in number, a good many of the more
diihcult passages of the New Testament were during the session brought under
review.
The Junior Exegetical class read critically i\xQ; first six chapters of the Gospel
of Luke, and the first nine chapters of the Book of Genesis, and part of the
eleventh chapter. A brief course of lectures was given in th^ class, on the
History and Principles of Scripture Interpetration.
Biblical Criticism was taught, partly in the use of Home as a text -book, and
partly by lectures. The class in this study met twice a week during the session.
It consists of the students of the first year, who also form the Junior Exegetical
class.
Profc-sor Gregg conducted the classes in Apologetics and Church History,
and exaaiined the Homilies and Latin Discourses. In the chus in Apologetics
)which consisted of the students of the first year), the subjtcts treated of were
Natural Theology, the Evidences of Revealed Religion, and the Inspiration of the
Scriptures,
The Church History class comprised the students of the second and third
years, and the ground gone over was the first seven centuries of the Christian Era.
Competitors for the Esson bursaries were examined ''n Biblical History from its
commencemeHt to the reign of Saul.
Professor Gregg suggests as worthy of consideration, whether the class in
Church History should not embrace the students of the third as well as of the
first and second years — this important study being thus made to extend over the
entire theological curriculum.
Profcsmr McLaren conducted the class in Systematic Theology, consisting of
the students of the second and the third years. Three days c*" the week were
devoted to lectures on the Inspiration of the Scriptures, the Rule of Faith, the
Attributes of God, and the Decrees of God. Two days weekly were devoted to
lectures and discussions upon the Decalogue. In connection with this subject the
students were required to study and undergo examination upon "Fairbairn on
the Revelation of Law in Scripture."
Professor McLaren deemed it proper thus to divide the work of the class,
inasmuch as the students, who will this year graduate, had not during any
previous part of their course given special attention to (juestions connected with
the Decalogue and the Covenant of Law.
Each student was required to write one theological essay during the session,
which duty was performed in a very satisfactory manner.
Dr. Proudfoot delivered a series of Lectures on Homiletics, with the view of
supplementing and perfecting the system taught last session. He also gave a
full and exhaustive course of twenty lectures on Pastoral Theology. Twelve
lectures were delivered on Church Government ; embracing about a third part of
& full course upon that subject.

APPENDIX.
1-
In addition to systematic lecturing, Dr. rioudfoot examined carefully and
criticised in the class sixteen sermons by students of the third year, aud nine
lectures by students of the second year. There was thus the opportuhity of
applying practically the principles of sermonizing established and inculcated
during the session.
The students of the firs' year attended Dr. Proudfoot's lectures voluntarily
but not as members of the class. Testimony is borne to the great interest which
the students evince in homiletical training, and their growing appreciation of its
importance.
All the professors speat with perfect satisfaction of the diligence and the
deportment of the students, and of the regularity of their attendance on the
classes.
In accordance with the instructions of the General Assembly, the services of
a teacher of elocution were secured, and the Senate is happy to report that f'd
It'ctures of Mr. Taverner, who was engaged by the College Board, were much
valued by the students, and are believed to liave been very useful to them.
In the Preparatory Department of the College, the number of students
during the past session was nineteen. The list is as follows: — First year:
Messrs. Alexander Nicol and D. McBain. Second year : Messrs. C. Cameron,
D. G. McKay, J. W. Smith, P. C. Goldie, T. Kenning, T. Coulter, William
Bluet, John Johnson, Donald Currie, William Fitzsinunons, Alexamler Fraser
and J. Geddes. Third year: R. Fowley, A. H. Kippiii, H. McKay, W.
Gallaher and R. Henderson.
It is proper to remark that four of the studvints here classed as of the second
year entered the College this session, but in accordance with the jirescribed
examination, were found qualified to take their place as second year's students.
The students in this Department, as in former years, received instiuition in
Knox College in classics only ; but gave attendance at the University of Toronto
on the classes jtrescribed to them by the Board of Examiners.
The classes in Greek and Latin were conducted by Messrs. H. H. McPherson,
M.A., and Peter Straith, M.A., who were last summer appointed tutors by the
College Board.
Mr. McPherson, who taught Greek, reports that the senior class, consisting
of the students of the second and third years, read Homer's Iliad, B. VI., and.
three chapters of the Epistle to the Galatians. The junior class read Xen. Anab.
B. I., chapters i. ii. and iii. ,and went over the greater portion of the Greek
Grammar. The progress made by the students in both classes was gratifying,
but in the senior class more might have been done, had it not been for the great
inequality in the proficiency of its members. The attendance on the classes was
good, but owing to bereavement of a very trying nature, one student — Mr,
Gallaher — was absent from the final examination.
Mr. Straith adopted the same classification of students in the stuily of the
Latin language. The senior class read the first Oration of Cicero against Oataline,
and 480 Unes of Virgil's Georgics, B. IV. The students of the junior class read
485 of the ^neid, B. II. The attendance on the whole was very good, and the
interest shown in the work encouraging.
As for some years past, the Students' Metaphysical and Literary Society was
maintained with much vigor, and is enti ;led to be regarded as, in its own de-
partment, a valuable auxiliary to the proper instrumentalities of the College.
It would be improper not to refer to the very gi'eat ir.terest evinced by the
students of the College — as also by those students attending the University who
have the ministry in view — in the work of missions. It is believed that in no
previous year has more valuable service been rendered to the Church in connec-
tion with the Students' Missionary Society. The fields occupied by this Society
are those which the Church, through her ordinary agencies, is least prepared to
occupy. Last year thirteen missionaries were maintained by the Students'
Society ; and the account of their labours given in the Annual Report is uncom-
monly interesting. But deep regret is expressed that in the case of some of the

most impoi-tant stations the Church has not been able to follo\. up the work
done by the student missionaries during summer ; and thus the fruit of their
labours has, it is feared, been to some extent lost.
Special interest has been infused into the meetings and operations of the
Society during the past months, by the fact that a student of the gi-aduating class,
in response to *he. invitation of the Church, is about to proceed as a missionary
to the Island c F Formosa. J. B. Fraser, M.D., the student referred to, hivs held
a most honourable standing during his whole course of study, and it is the hope
and earnest prayer of the Senate that his consecration to this work may help
greatly to increase the missionary zeal, not only of fellow-students from whom he
now separate , but of the entire Church. It is an interesting circumstance in
the history of the College that Dr. Fraser is the first missionary who proceeds
immediately from its classes to the foreign field.
The monthly Saturday prayer meeting has been well attended, as well as
the devotional meetings held weekly by the students themselves.
By the di^'ine goodness, the health of the students during the session has,
with slight exception, been such as to allow uninterrupted prcjecution of study.
But the hand of God must be acknowledged in the bereavement with which more
than one of their number have been visited ; and the Senate would express its
sympathy with the several students and families thus called to mourn.
The class this year graduating is exceptionally large, consisting as it does of
sixteen members. It is hoped that these, by the divine blessing, may prove a
valuable accession to the Church's labourers ; and that whether calletl to serve
the Master at home or abroad — in heathen or in Christian lands — they may
prove workmen who shall not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of
The Senate would ask permission to express its gratification at the success
which has thus far attended the effort to e- ect new premises for the College, and
its hope that before next session has long commenced, it may be able to take
possession of a building which shall afford greatly increased facilities for the work
of the College, shall promote the comfort of the students, and shall reflect credit
on the liberality of the Church and her zeal in the interests of theological ediica-
tion.
The examinations at the close of the Spssion, as at the beginning of it, were
conducted by the Board of Examiners appointed by the General Assembly. The
detailed results will be given in the Report of the Board.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EXAMINERS
Western Section.
The Board of Examiners submits the following report of|its operations during
the past year : —
I. — Stvdents in Preparatory Courset
Seven students presented themselves for examination in the beginning of
October, witli the view of having places assigned to them as students of the
Preparatory Course of Knox College.
• C'n examination, five, viz., John Johnstone, Donald Currie, Colin Cameron,
William Fitzimmons and William Bluett, were ranked as students of the 2nd
year; the remaining two, Alexander Nichol and Duncan McBain, were entered as
students of the 1st year.
The Board, in addition to arranging for their attendance on the classes for
instruction in Latin and Greek within Knox College, prescribed certain classes
in University College for the students of each year of the Preparatory Course.
An examination in Latin and Greek was conducted by the Board at the close
of the Session. Eighteen students of the Preparatory Course took part in it and
passed creditably. One student of the third year was compelled to leave the city
before the date of the examination. It was agreed to allow him his standing in
the circumstances. Certificates were presented from the Professors of University
College by the students of the various years, attesting regularity of attendance
on the prescribed clasaes, and such acquaintance with the subjects as entitled
them to pass, in some oases 'Adth honour, in the various depr-rtments.
The following is a list of the students in the Preparatory Course, with the
st«iDding to which they are entitled.
x,.
APPENDIX.
7^
students of the lat Year. — Alexander Nichol, Duncan McBaln.
" 2d Year.— D. G. McKay, Thomas Coulter, William J. Smith,
Thos. Kenning, Alex. Fnisor, William Fitzim-
mons, Jolin Johnstone, Donald Currie, Colin
Cameron, J. Geddes.
•' "3d Year. — Robt. Fowlie, Roderick Henderson, A. H. Kmpen,
Hugh McKay, William Gallagh.n-, and P. C.
Goldie.
It only remains to be stated that several students whose names ai/peared last
year in the list of Preparatory Students of Knox College are not found in the
present list, the reason being one which can hardly fail to give satisfaction to the
members of this Assembly, viz., the desire to take the longer and more f iiorough
course of -stiuly prescribed by the University of Toronto.
II. — Students in the Theological Course.
Of the twelve students entering on the study of theology in October, only
six were examined by the Board, the remainder having been admitted to the standing
of study of theology, in accordance with the legislation of last Assembly, on the
ground of their possession of the degree of B. A. or M. A., or of their having com-
pleted the Preparatory Course of study at Knox College.
The names of those examined by the Board are : Stewart Ac.heson, Samuel
Acheson, Wm. Henry, W. Amos, J. Allison, and Alex. McFarlane.
The scholarship for general proficiency was awarded to Wm. Henry ; that
for excellence in Hebrew to Samuel Acheson.
As a full account of the examinations in the Theological Department at the
cose of the Session is embraced in the Report of the Senate, it is unnecessary to
make any further statement thereon in this report. These examinaaons were
couducted by the Senate and Board acting conjointly.
III. — Stitdents Attending University College.
As in former years, an examination was conducted by the Board for the i)ure
pose of awarding scholarships to students attending University CoUef 3 with th
view of entering the ministry of the Canada Presbyterian Church.
Thirteen students competed, and as the result of the examination the Board
awarded scholarships as follows : —
In the 4th Year.— William W. Wilson.
«* 3d Year.— F. R. Beattie, (1st) ; Alexander Leslie, (2nd).
" 2d Year.— Duncan McCoU, (1st) ; Peter Bryce, (2nd).
" 1st Year. — Andrew Baird, (Ist) ; Samuel H. Eastman, (2A) \ David
Stalker, (3d).
The attention of the General Assembly is called to the fact that this scheme
has hitherto received a very partial sujiport throughout the Church. It was the
hope of the Board that as its merits became better known, one scholarship at
least would be provided by each of the wealthier congregations in our cities and
lasger towns. In this hope it has been disappointed, and unless some prospect is
held out of more general support, it will be necessary at once to discontinue the
scheme, well fitted as it is to assist and encourage the candidates for the ministry
to take a full course at a University before entering on the study of theology.
The scholarships are awarded to students on the distinct understanding
that it is their intention to enter the ministry of the Canada Presbyterian Church.
While no pledge is taken that the money should be refunded by those prevented
^ from carrying out this purpose, in several instances this has been done, two
having occurred since the date of last report.
All which is respectfully submitted.

BTTERIAN COLLEGE, MONTREAL.

Scmon 1873—1874.
The Report of the Senate tuid the Treasurer's Audited Statement, wliieh are
herewith transmitted to the General Assembly, show the work and finnineial con-
dition of the College. The Board of Management record witli devout gratitude
to God the completion of the new College building, which was opened with appro-
priate services on the 28th day of October last. It is a .stone editice, elegant and
commodious, pleasantly situated on the rising ground above the city, com-
manding a view of tiie University grounds, the city, and the scenery of the St.
Lawrence. As immediately adjoii.ing McGill College, it att'ords students the
greatest facilities for attending lectures in t^iat institution, and obtaining con-
stant ac.ess to its valuable library and mus(!um.
Tn addition to its library, lecture-rooms and offices, it contains studies and
dormitories for resident students, together with bath rooms, and other modern
conveniences. The rooms are comfortably furnished, and thi^ whole building,
including the individual rooms, is well ventilated, heated with hot water pipes
and lighteil with gas.
liesident students are lurnished with rooms, heating and light, free of
expense ; but the refectoiy and attendance of servants are in the hands of the
steward, whose fee will iu no case exceed three dollars per week, and who is
responsible to the Board of Management for the efficiency of his service. By
these arrangements the comfort and success of students liave been greatly pro-
moted.
Tlu^ amount subscribed to the Building Fund to date is $43,522, of which
$33,104 05 has been })aid. The amount expended forpurcha.se of ground and
building is $42,428 81, being in excess of receipts, $9,324 7t). There are
also accounts not yet rendered, and a considerable expenditure re(iuired for office
furniture, fencing, and other improvements in connection with the grounds. And
in view of the growth of the College, the Board deem it necessary to take steps to
enlarge the building with as little delay as jjossible.
It will l)e seen from the Treasurer's statement that the expenditure for ordi-
nary pur])oses lias tliis year been in excess of tlu; revenue. Th.s is apparent
from tne fact that the year opened with a balance on hand of $1,012 69, and
closes leaving only $196 47 balance iu hand. This is due to the unavoidable
increase of expenditure, and not to any diminution of the contributions of the
people. On ':he contrary, there has been an increase in the annual collection as
compared with last year of $426 26, and a still further increase of liberality is
required in order to add to the usefulness and efficiency of the Collegt.
The professional staff has been greatly strengthened by the induction on the
first day of October, in terms of appointment by the General Assembly, of the
Kev. John Campbell, M.A., into the Chair of Church History and Ai)ologetics.
Professor Campbell delivered his inaugural lecture on the ; onnection of sacred
and profane history the same day, and has continued to discharge the duties of
his office with much zeal and success.
The Rev. J. M. Gibson having removed to a pastoral charge in the city of
Chicago, resigned his office as Chairman of the Board and Lecturer in Exegesis.
The Board desire to put on record their appreciation of the valuable services
rendered by him in both these capacities.
RECOMMENDATIONS. ,
The following recommendations are submitted to the General Assembly :
1. That the Rev. John Scrimger, M.A., be appointed Lecturer in Exegesis
next session, at a salary of five hundred dollars.
2. That for reasons to be urged, the General Assembly be respectf»lly asked
to relieve the funds of this College of the charge made last June for part of the
retiring allowance of the former Principal of I^ox College, Toronto.

The Senate direct attention to the new and more thorough arnuigements
respecting Scholarships, medals, prizes and 'certificates of honour for tlie next
Session, announcol in the Annual Calendar just issued. In addition to |the
onlinary subjects taught in the classes of the various professors, as prescribed for
each year, in which every student must pa.>is an examination at the close of the
session, an honour course is provided, which is optional, and in which no lectures
are given, but to which ccrtificati's of honour, scholarships and Tuedals are at-
tached. Seventeen scliolarships, two medals, and ten prizes are thus oU'ered for
competition. Two of the scholarships are of the value of $100 each, two $70
each, and the rest $50 and $40 each.
The books of the honour course in each year are generally selected from
among those to which attention has been direiited and a partial analysis of which
has been given in the classes. It is believed that this arrangement will secure
concentration of ettbrt on the part of stuilents, and a more thorough course of
readin;., than is usual in connection with their theological curriculum.
Students of the first and second year are reciuired to attend the cla.sses and
pass examinations in elocution and music. Students of the third year are not
required to attend the classes in elocution and music, but '.ours are set apart for
s])ecial exercises in extemporaiy speaking, in which they are expected to engage.
These provisions are deemed specially valuable in fitting young men for the work
of the ministry.
All Frencli students, and students preparing for French work, are re(iiured to
take the Sacred Criticism of the three years with Prof. Coussirat, an(l English
students who understand French are urged to do the same. Students taking
this course and passing examinatioijs in it are exempted from examination in
the Biblical History of the first year, the Apologetics of the second, and the
Exegesis of the third. In the honour work tliey may also take the examinations
in Latin, Greek and Hebrew authors, Gaussen and Calvin, in French instead of
English.
French students are not required to give more than one of tl :eir College exer -
cises in English, and at least two of them must be in French.
While French students are eligible for all the scholarships and other rewards
of the theological course, in consideration of the disadvantage at which they are
placed by pursuing their studies in both languages, certain special scholars. lips are
offered for competition to them.
..j-'FILIATION WITH MCOILL UNIVERSITY.
The Senate, as in former reports, direct attention to the special advantages
afforded students in virtue of the affiliation of the College with McGill University .
They have thereby access to the library, museum and lectures of that institution.
By scholarships which are in the gift of benefactors, they may enjoy exemption
from College fees. In addition to these there are sixteen exhibitions and
scholarships of from $100 to $125 each, annually offered for competition to
students in arts, and at the close of their curriculum five gold medals are awarded
in the various departments, besides prizes and certificates of honour. For full
information on these matters reference is made to the Calendar.
LIBRARY AND RBADINll ROOM.
The following additions were made to the library during the session : By
furchase, 92 vols., by donation, 254 vols., ii^ all, 346 vols. The reading room
as been supplied during the session with over fifty different papers and periodi-
cals, many of them without expense to the College. The Senate beg to request
the attention of the Board to the necessity of increased accommodation for the
library.

STUDENTS PHILOSOPHICAL AND LITERARY SOCIETY.
Tins society aims at the cultivation of the reasoiiing faculty, literary taste
and rhetorical powers of its members, by means of fortnightly meetings for dis-
cussions, readings, the delivery of essays, &c. Its work during the past session
has been more successful tlian in any previous year ; and this is in a great mea-
sure due to the convenience enjoyed in the new College building. The Senate
offers annually the following prizes, wliich are awarded by vote of the society,
viz. : One prize (each one of the value of ten dollars in books, appropriately
bound, and bearing the College stamp), for excellency in ( 1 ) Public Speaking,
(2) English Reading, (3) French Reading, (4) for the best English Essay, (5) for
the best French Essay.
The thanks of the Senate are tendered to the Rev. Wm. Reid, M. A. , Modera-
tor of the General Assembly, for a set of Macaulay's works, to be awarded as a
prize by this society.
MISSIONARY SOCIETY.
This society reports directly to the Convener of the General Assembly's Kome
Mission Committee; but it is proper here to state that it meets weekly for prayer,
general business, and conference on home and foreign mission matters. It di-
rects the efforts of students in t^e city and vicinity, and employed during College
recess six missionaries. Th i work of this society was much promoted during the
session by the presence of several distinguished visitors. Among them were the
Rev. Narayan Sheshadri, of India, Rev. Dr. Graham, of Bonn, and Rev. Dr.
Duryea, of Brooklyn, N.Y., who delivered most instructive and profitable ad-
dresses before the students.
The opening lecture of the session was delivered by the Rev. Prof. Campbell,
on the Connection of Sacred and Profane History, and the closing lecture by
Principal McVicar on Prayer and Recent Criticism.

During the present year there has been received from all Fources for ordinary
accouTit, $577 89, and expended thc^ stniu' amount as per balance sheet attached.
The boiirdiiig house in connection witlt the College has been in operation for
the year, and has had an average of ten boarders. At the first meeting of the
Boiird the deliveiance of tlie Commissioners on the remov^nl of the College
building whs considered. The deliverance was as follows :
The Commissicmers appointed by the General Assembly to visit Manitoba, in
refe-ence to tbe opening of classes for higher education in the town of Winnipeg,
having met with the Presbytery of Manitoba, and. held conferences with the
BuiMiiig Committee of Manitoba College and Board of Management ; and,
having investigated all matters relating to the proposed transference of Manitoba
College fnm Kildonan to Winnipeg, are prepared to reconjmend that the College-
be transferred from Kildonan to Winnipeg.
It is understood by the Conmiissioners, in making this recommendation,
that the debt on the College Building, amounting to $1,600, be assumed by the
Board of Manage'nent of Manitoba College, and that suitable buildings be pro-
Tided for college pur])oses imtil permanent buildings are erected.
Further, that inasmuch as the sum of alxjut $1,600 has been contributed
by friends in Kildonan, and by bequest, towards the erection of the present
College buildinff, the Commissioners recommend that it be made over to the
trustees of the Kildonan congregation, to be by them held for the congregations'
behoof and benefit, and used or disposed of as the congregation may du-ect.

The following resolutioa was unanimously adopted : "That the deliverance
of the Commissioners from the General Assembly of the Canada Presbyterian
Ckorch, anent the removal of the College to Winnipeg, be accepted as satiofaotory
by the Board of Management. "
f n view ot the removal the Board appointed Site itnd Subscription Committees,
who reported in favour of the purchase of a site of two acres within the limits of
the city, which, on account of the object, was offered at half-price, viz. $500 for
fche olock. To provide for the immediate wants cf the College a hubstantial
building hac baon bargained for, and the refusal given until after the meeting of
the Assembly. The cost of thr> building is $2,5C0. To meet the expenditure
9S,000 is required. A subscription list has been opened, and, taking all UcU into
coBPideratiou, a mcst liberal response given. The subscriptions are payable
according to the conditions of the accompanying report and schedule for' arded
to the Assembly for approval.
The Board have, by the recommendation of the Commissioners, been bound
to assume the debt of $1,500 on the old building, and for this amount private
members of the Board are responsible. In addition, according to the recom-
mendation nf the Commissioners, the Board is required to relinquish the present
iuiilding
In the present state of the country, and in view of the liberal and energetic
response given to the call for funds for the new building, and for obtaining a site
which in five years will probably be worth live or ten times its present value, the
Board prays for such relief as the Assembly may extend. It would respectfully
suggest for the approval of the Assembly :
1. That the Building and Endowment Funds be amalgamated, and called
*' Manitoba College Permanent Fund."
.2. That an effort be made t > raise a suEBcient sum to relieve the Church of the
support of the College by increasing this "Permanent Fund," which now has
$2,890 15 paid into the agent of the Church.
3. That the $1,500 above referred to be paid from such sums as may be here-
after raised for this Permanent Fund, and t at present arrangements be made tor
the relief of the private parties responsible for the amount.
4. That such moneys as may be raised be placed for investment in the hands
of the Manager of the Merchants Bank ot Canada, at Winnipeg, who guarantees
to invest them for 12 per cent, in absolutely safe investments up to the amotmt
of ten or twenty thousand dollars.
The Board would earnestly beg of tne General Assembly that the Rer. Thos.
Burt, ML A., be appointed a Professor in the College to receive support and retaia
Ohxirch connec Ion as at present.
The Board would also, on account of the distance of Manitoba from the
place of meeting of the General Assembly, respectfully present the following plan
of constituting the Board of Management.
That the Assembly appoint the fifteen members of the Board to be nominated
in the Tollowing manner : —
2 Professors.
"2 dominated by the Presbytery of Manitoba.
Knox Church, Winnipeg.
Kildonan.
Synod of Presbyterian Church of Canada in connection
witli the Church of Scotland.
Little Britain.
Portage La Prairie.
It is the request of the Board also that a seal be authorized by the Assembly
to be affixed by the Board to legd docunifuts.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

MANITOBA COLLEGE-REPORT OF THE SENATE.
In giving this, its first annual report, to the Board, the Senate is of tie
opinion that a "hort statement of the matters properly belonging to it previous
to the present session may be useful.
The classes in Manitoba College were begun on the 10th of November, 1871,
by the Rev. George Bryce, M. A., a graduate of and examiner in the University
of Toronto, and at the time of his appointment assistant in Chalmers' ChTirCb,
Quebec. The Rev. John Black had for two years previous been maintaining
classes in classics, and Mr. D. B. Whimster, hent out by the Home Mission Com-
mittee, had given instruction in English and mathematics. The Rev. John Black
took during the first year several classes in Greek and Ljitin. A master also gave
instruction in commercial subjects. The College began with seven students, and
during the first session this number rose to seventeen. Written examinations ,
were held with the best results, and a few prizes were awarded.
The second session began in October, 1 872. During the summer of 1 872
arrangements had been made between the Synod of the Presbyterian Church of
Canada in connection with the Church of Scotland and the Assembly for joint
action in college and missionary work. Accordingly, this session began with
the Kev. Thomas Hart, M.A., a graduate of Queen's College, Kingston, and
favourably known in Central Canada as Piincipal of the Perth Grammar School,
in charge of classics and French. A commercial teacher was also employed.
There were during this ses.-<ion 24 students on the roll, at various stages of ad-
vancement. A strict and full examination was held at the end of each of the
three terms.
The third or present session begap in October, 1873. The Senate regrets
that on account of the length of session being nine months, it can only report on
two-thirds of the session, viz. , up to the end of March.

aminations under the direction of the Senate were held in December and March,
And all the examiners reported a great advance on the previous session in an.swer-
ing power and acquaintance witli the subjects of examination. The Senate has
much pleasure in reporting that the orgaiiizition of the College has this year been
completed, and that during the year tlie wiiole four forms have, for the first time
in the history of the College, been in operation. The Senate has iilso to report
that it was deemed advisable to substitute some works in the aiuhorized curriculum.
Cicero pro Anihia for Cicero vs. Catnline; Livy, Book V., for Horace, Ars Poetica,
and Luciau's Timon was added ; and also that in consequence of the addition of
several authors in classics and French, tlie subjects of the spec'al course for IV.
form were remitted.
MEDALS, BUR,SARIES AND* PRICES.
The prizes, itc, awarded last year were distributed at the public opening on
the 5th of January. No bursary or prize is awarded exci'pt when a cerlain stan-
dard of merit is reached. The bursaries iir.i in money, the prizes in books. The

LIBRARY.
A library has been begun, and a circular issued iiskiug for donations of books.
About 100 volumes make up the present library, thi)UL;h there are a number more
kindly given by Knox College, which have not yet been added. In our new
Province, where books, even in private collections, arcscaice, the necessity for ad-
ditions to the library is a jiressing one.

REPORT OF THE SABBATH SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The Committee on Sabbath Schools, in presenting their annual report to the
Assembly, desire to acknowledge the goodness of God, and to render devout thanks
for His blessing upon this important branch of the Church's work. The past year
has not gone by without many manifest tokens of His favour. Greater interest is
taken in Sabbath schools, and more of the Chuich's talent'j and energy enlisted
year by year. The members of our congregations are beginning to feel that the
eabbath school entergritte demands from them more of prayerful effort and efficient
support than they have hitherto given. More comprehensive and scriptural ideas
are now entertained in regard to this department, which affects the vital interests
of the whole Church. The Master has put it into the hearts of many to consecrate
themselves to the blessed work of instructing the young ; and the Canada Presby-
terian Church is largely indebted to her noble band of SabbathTschool teachers —
her unpaid ministry — whose labours are being greatly blessed to the spiritual
good of many.
During the past year a great deal of attention has been given to the more
practical questions of Sabbath school teachings and the religious training of the
yonng. In accordance with the recommendation adopted at last Assembly, many
it the Presbyteries have either held Sabbath school conventions or given a
tederant to the consideration of Sabbath school worR ; and in each case it haa
been reported to your committee that the most lively interest has been taken in
the discussions, and deliberations. The Presbyteries of Guelph, Simcoe, Chatham,

"Ow»
and Huron have had conventions, at which mxny of tho iiuit vital questions
were cjiscussed with mirked interest and prortt. As will be aeen by the enumer-
ation of the more prominent themes, aid the subipiiucnt de>;i3ioiia of Pre.<bytdrie3,
such points as the following were riade th ■ jubjects of conference at those-
meetings.
1. The relation of the Sabbath School to the Church.
2. The special relation of Christian parents to the Sabhath School.
3. The qualitication of 8abbath School teschers.
4. The character and duties of Sabbath School teachers.
6. How all Christians may co-operate in Sabbath School work.
6. Defects in Sabbath School manaj?ement.
7. What are the requisites to a proper instruction and government of Sabbath
Schools.
8. How best to interest the Sabbath Scliools in missions, so as to secure their
aid in the furtlierance of them.
9. The music of Sabbath Schools.
10. The importance of doctrinal teaching, and of the Shorter Catechism as a
text-book.
11. Are pic-nics, soirees, &c., conducive to the great end contemplated by the
Sabbath School.
12. Practical suggestions as to the best methods of teaching.
13. The honour and dignity of the Sabbdth School work.
14. The same lesson for all the classes in the school.
15. Teachers' meetings for the study of the lesson.
16. The place and purpose of the Sabbath School.
These formed some ot the more important subjects of conference, and we have
good grounds for believing that their discussion was attended with many beneficial
results. On many of the topics elaborate and carefully prepared papers were read
by members previously appointed, which produced a profound impression, and
gave an impetus to many earnest workers.
The clerk of the Chatham Presbytery writes in reference to a coui-irence
held by them. He says : " The Conference was largely attended, and was of a
very interesting and profitable character. The topics were discussed by a large
ni. mber of iSabbath school teachers, as well as by members of Presbytery. At
the close of the meeting the Presbytery resolved to put upon record its hcnse of
the importance and beneficial effect upon teachers and others of conferences of
the kind just held under its auspices. Considerable interest appears to be mani-
fested in the Presbytery in connection with Sabbath school work."
The clerk of the Simcoc Presbytery sent your committee a report of a con-
vention held by them in Collingwood, and also the minute of Presbytery anent
the reception of ^aid report. The following is the Preibytery's minute: "In
receiving the Report of the Sabbath School Convention, held in Collingwood, we
desire to express our high satisfaction with its success, with the lively interest
taken in the proceedings by the delegates, as well as by the congregation in at-
tendance; and further, we desire to express our stron.; and earnest conviction
that such conferences are well fitted to awaken among our people a deeper
interest in the welfare of the young, to stir up the teachers to gi eater diligence
and devotion in their work, and, by a free interchange of thought, to shed more
and clearer light on what are the best methods for carrying on our Sabbath school
work ; and further, we deem it desirable that a similar convention be held during
the coming year at such time and place as the Presbytery may appoint."
Other Presbyteries, which did not hold conventions, gave a good deal of
attention to the subject of the religious training of the youii^ in their ordinary
meetings, with probably equal benefit. The clerk of the Alontreal Presbyter
writes: " The Presbytery did not hold a conference, but Sabbath school wor
Was touched in their Report on the State of Religion. " I may just say that Sabbath
tehool work is pretty well performed throughout the Presbytery of Montreal.
These are only a sample of the m.iny gratifying returns made, which all go to
show how much more prominently the religious training of the young occupiea

the attention of our Chinch now than at any former timu. And yet your com-
raittcc fool that our Chun^h his not hith«rto realized tlio paniinoaiit iniimrtanci'
of this grciit liopartmiMit of Ch'intiau labour. In ordor to do her work e^Hic-ntly
the Canada Pie.sbyterian Church must exercise increased wisdom and caro ia
calling forth and dovelo[)iM^'"the Hpecial gifts of her people, and train tho:n more
efficiently fir the high and glorious service of the M ister in feeding His lambs.
One prominent Saliliath school worker in our CInuch writes : "I wish our As-
sembly would ajipoiiit an agent in conneiition with Sabbath .school work, and
also devote one session to the consideration of the Sabl)ath 'School Report. I s«o
in the United States the Assembly are to give a whole aedorunt to a Subb/ith
School ItiatUutf, to l)e conducted by their agent. Our ininisteiy an 1 our Ohuriih
are not alive to the importance of Sibbaih school work in building up the Church.
Our Church in future gi'uerations will depend very nuich upon what wo do for
the yiiuiig just now."
Your committee did not diM^m it necessary this year to issue a series of
t|uestions to each session. Tliis was done last year, and a full return given in,
containing very important statistical information on the various items of interest,
and they felt it would be a nee lle<s rt'|)e,tition to do the same this year. How-
ever, according to the rei^ouiinendation of last Assembly, they expected statistical
information to be furnished to them by the various Presbyteries, hut none have
been received witli the exception of a carefully prepared table of statistics from
the Guelpb Presbytery.
For many years the need of a uniform s —i 's of lessons has been greatly felt.
In last year's report your committee recotnirwi led the geoeral a loption of t'lat
scheme of hfssons known as the liUcrnaUon '■'. S'.ries, aud they ii ive now nuMh
pleasure in stating thit this recommeuilatiiiii his been generally f'llowed with
very beneli.;ial results. (.)ue great want which teachers lia»'C hirli-rl i felt Wi«
the need of definite information on the special subject of their L'.ss )U. M iny
earnest teachers have a very limited knowledge of Scripture doctrine, and oftea
feel embarrassed when required to meet their scholars with a hiss /U more than
usually dillicult. But this want is now am|)ly supplied. The Iii.kriM'.vmdl
Scries is explained by so many emimmt writers on Sabbath school work, and
discusseil from so many diir-rc'i'', stand-points, tint no teacher now nenl remain
ignorant of the subject ; and this is one of the chief incnits of the Sfries. It ia
tile earne.st wi.sh, therefore, of your Commilti'.e, tint all the schools adopt the
International Series, aud that each te.ii'.lier be suppl ed with a |>iiper in which the
weekly lesson is explained. We c in heartily recomma id for this purpose, " TilB
PllEsnYTKKIAy AT WoilK," " TlIK Su.VDAY SCHOOL TiMKS," or " TUK SuNDAT
School Would," the notes in which, by the IL'v. Dr. John Hall, are copied into
" TiiK Biurisii Amkuioax PiiBsiivrKUivN." Many teachers have asiured us
that they have received great help from the study of the lesson as explained in
these papers.
Many schools and teachers parti, illy fail, not from any lack of interest or
earnest desire, but from a lack of imthoi and ext:;i knowlaigc of their work.
Your committee discussed at hngth tlie propriety of preparing a shorr mnnual
of a few pages for the use ""'f teacliers, containing brief hints and spciCitic direc-
tions on the practical points of their labours, and the convener was instructed
to pr.ipare a compend, but wmt of time prcventi-d him. ScUl we deem the matter
most important, and recommend it to the consideration of this Assembly. A
brief suiumay of speci(i(; directi'Uis would prove of inestimable value to many of
our younger and less experienced teachers. We also strongly urge the careful
grading and classifying of tlie scholars when it can be done, and the thorou'.;h
organization of the whole school. l<'rom the want of this, many of our schools,
especially in the country, are le-s eflicieiit than they shouM be.
Another great dilii nilty experienced is the piocuring of suitable books for
the Sabbath school libr.iry. Ii miny instances, books quite unworthy find
their way into the Sabbath scliool. and f<»ster tisres which prove prejuiiicial to
the .scholar's religious training. Last year a partial list was published of books
that had been examined aud were thereby recommended. Your committee tare

tho.se well ai^quiiiiited with books may make selections witli coiiipiirative ease,
with numy it is a matter of great dilliculty ; and yet the kind of readinj{ uH'ects
tho whole character of the school. Too mujli value cannot be placed on a suit-
able selection of books for religious reading.
In most of our larger .schools infant classes h vo been established in rooms
separate from the main .school, and instruction given by means of black-board
exercise;, object-lessons ami illuminated texts. During the past year a liirge
number of infant clas.ses have been organized. It lequires a combination of rare
qualities to make an ellicient teacher of an infant class ; and where such teachers
can bo (onnd in a congregation, their servic(;s are of inestimable value and should
be secured at once. Your committee feel tliat much more attention should be
given to singing than iu usual in all our schools.
The C'ouvciKT has exaniiniMl certain catechisms for tlie use of tho smaller
childi(Mi, and can recommend, as in his jud.^ineiit one of thi! be-it, A Vatichism
for InfatUs, prepared a few years ago by Kev. J. Laiiig. To a teacher who wishes
to make an intelligent use of it it will bo of great ;iervice ; and to tliose who do
not wish to make their labour an intelligent .service, no book or catechism will bo
of any avail.
1. Yonr ('ommittec ask tho (reneral Assetnldy to urgi; I'rcsltytcries to give
more atttmtion to Siibbath .school work within their bounds, to collect statistics,
and H(>nd tabulated returns to the Assembly's convener.
2. They also recomniend that Synods ami tlu; (Jeneral Assembly give one
sedciunt to the consideration of .Sabbttli school work and kindred subjects.
3. Wc again recommend with increasing uigcncy th(! need of making certain
•four Church services more adapted to the capacity of children; that occasion il
sermons bo preached to the young ; that the relative duties of parents and chil-
dren be kept prominent, and especially the need of jiarents cooperating with
Sabbatli school teachers in the training and instruction of tho young.
4. ^V^o feel tlie importance ol training the young early to practical benevo-
lence for the cause of Christ, and therefore recomineni that our Sabbath scdiools
be required to sujiport two missionaries, one in the home and tho other in the
foreign iield — the. fields to be determined by this Assemidy.
5. Your committee more than ever IVol the need of mutual didilvratiori and
concentrated action on this great sul)Ject of Clnindi work, and urtjc upon this
Assembly the nect^ssity of ap|iointiiig a convention for tho jHii|iose of discussing
matters connected with our Sabbath schools, to which all ministers, ciders, and
teachers may be invited, to be held at such time and place as the Assembly
may agree on.
In conclusion, your committee would ask the .Assembly to urge upon teachers
the need of keeping constantly in view tho great end of all religious teaching in
the immediate spiritual good of the young and their saving enlightenment in tho
knowledge of Christ, and the necessity of being earnest, definite and decided on
all practical themes — always pointing to the " Lamb of tiod which takcth away the
sin of the wnld."
All of which is res]>eclfully submittiul.

among our people, with a view to dcfpen their interest in the work of the Church,
and to draw out their liberality in advancing the same, the committee would
suggest —
1. That sessions and boards of management be strongly recommended to
supply every family in their respective congregations with a copy of the tiecord.
2. That the conveners of the various mission committees of the Church be
instructed to furnish the editor from time to time with such communications as
will tend to enlarge the sympathies of our people with the different departments
of work in which the Church is engtged.
Also that the editor, as formerly, be instructed to abridge, when he deems
necessary, the reports of the proceedings of Presbyteries, in order that more
space may be devoted to missionary intelligence.

The Commission of the General Assembly charged to visit Manitoba, and to
inquire specially as to the place or places in which teaching should bti conducted
in connection with the Manit'tba Odlege, beg to report that they visited the
abiiv«> named Province, ami remained there from July 15th uuti* August 19th, 1873;
and thai during that time they did. as well with a view of obtaining correct impres-
sions of the state oi the Mission Held in that Province, aa of promoting the specific
end of their mission, visit the various congregations and mission stations, and
that, with particular reference to the latter object, they met witti the Presbytery,
also with the Building Co,mnittee, and with the Board of Management of
the Manitoba Cobege.
lu prosecuting their inquiries in regard to the College, the following are the
Jioints to which attention Wis chijfly directed, together with the statements of

Upon these points no information could V btained from the Minutes of
Presbytejy ; whatever was done iu regard to them, was done informally and with-
out beinrj minuted. The testimony, how8ver,.of Mr. Black, who was then and
■who if 81 ill a member of Presbytery, was to the eflect — That the project of estab-
liNh:;ig an institution of the sort now in existence had on more than one occasion
been a subject of conference in Presbyteiy ; that the desirableness of having
such an institution was recognized by all ; and that, in the eveut of its being pro-
ceeded with, the arrangement agreed to by all or at least objected to by none wa«
that it should be placed in the parish of Kildonan,
In pursuance of what was understood to be the mind of the Presbytery, a certain
number of gentlemen, chiefly connected with the Kildonan Congregation, formed
themselves into a Building Connnittec. This Committee held its first meeting on
the 25th of January, 1871, and soon afterwards the present College building was,
under their auspices and management, commenced and carried forward to it»
present stage of completion.
TI. Expenditure and indebtedness upon College Building.
The Building, although it has been for some time in use, is in an unfinished
state. !■; is estimated that a further outlay of $700 would be needed to render
it at all complete. As it now stands it has cost about $4,200, of which $1,484
is held by the Building Committee as a loan from the Hiidson's Bay Company,
the rate ot interest being 8 per cent, per annum ; the remainder, $2,716, was re-
ceived as free contributions :— To wit, from

the places from which they came.
There were in all 23 puj)ils ; 13 being from Kildonan, 9 from Winnipeg, and
1 from Portiige la Prairie.
IV. Whether the interests of the College, and the purposes for which it has
been established, would be promoted by having classes taught in connection with
it, both ill Kildonan and in Winni[)eg.
A compromise of this sort had been proposed by some parties, but it was not
really acceptable to any One. The Presbytery expressed itself opposed to this
scheme by a majority of five to four, holding that it would be against the interests
of the College to have recourse to it under any circumstances. Those who at all
favored the plan did so, not as believing it to be a good one, but from a desire to
conciliate Kildonan interests. All interested in Kildonan, however, were at one
with the majority of the Presbytery in rejecting the compromise, declaring that
rather than agree to such a change they would prefer to have the institution
removed from Kildonan altogether.
V. Whether in the event of the compromise above mentioned being set
aside, the interests and usefulness of the College would be promoted- b_v its removal
to Winnipeg.
The state of opinion in the Presbytery on this question was as follows :
The affirmative was held by Messrs. Fraser and Donaldson, together with
Professors Bryce and Hart, Miiii8t«r.i ; and the negative by Messrs. black and
Matheson, Ministers, and Messrs. Sutherland and Harper, Elders.

that
ition
In the Presbytery and elsewhere it was urged by those of the latter opinion, _,
that a College building was already erected at Kildonau ; that serious loss would
be sustained by the parish in case the institution was removed, as in that event
a building to which they have contributed liberally, and upon which a consider-
able .lebt still remains, would be thrown upon the hands of the Building Com-
mitt/*e without there being a prospect of any use to wliich they could profitably
appropriate it. Further, that the larger number of students have thus far come
from Kildonan, and that the supply of pupils from this quarter would be seriously
lessened by the suggested change ; and finally, that parents in the country requir-
ing to send their children from home lor education might be expected to nave .
on moral grounds a prefoience for Kildonan, which, as a country place, might be
presumed to be, as compared to the town, freer from temptations to vice.
Those holding tlie former opinion stated that means would be adopted to »
prevent Kildonan froni sufl'ering any money loss by the proposed change. They^
also contended that the institution, if at Winnipeg, would be as accessible to a
large proportion of the people of Kildonan as it is in its present position. And
further, that an increased attendance would probably at present, and all but
certainly in the future, be secured by the change : inasiriuch as, while for
various reasons the parish of Kildonan may be expected to decrease in population, .
the town of Winnipeg has trebled its population within the laiit three years, H.id
still continues to increase rapidly ; and finally, that it is anomalous to prefer, is
the seat of such an institution, a country parish to the capital of the Province,
especially as the latter has as yet no educational advantages of a higher order
than those of the common school.
The above constitute the principal statements of fact s^nd opinion brought
wider the m 'ice of the Commissioners ; and after a careful ( onsideration of the
whole circumbiaiices of the case, they venture to express the following as the con-
elusions to which they have come : —
I. That it would be injurious to the efticienoy of the College to divide the
time and labours of its professors between Kildonan and Winnipeg.
II. That IFinnipey, and not Kildonan, is the place where the College should
be situated. Whatever may have been the comparative claims of these jilaces at
the time the institution w-is first thought of, your Commiissioners can have no
doubt as to which of the two preference should be given under the changed cir-
cumstances of the country. The town of Winnipeg must soon be, if it has not
already become, in strength and influence, the chief centre of Presbyteiianism in
the Province. The spirit and enterprise of the people of Kildonan in seeking to
promote the interests of the higher education, and, in connection with these, the
best interests of the Church, arc deserving of all praise, and it is not without
regret that a change is proposed wliich, if carried out, will inflict upon them
serious disappointment.
Your Commissioners, however, see no other course open to them, having re-
•peet to the interests of the College and to the interests of the Church in the
Provmce as a whole, except that ot recommending as they hereby do recommend.
I. That the General Assembly enjoin that the teaching in connection with
the College be c ^acted wholly in Winnipeg, so soon as an eij^uitable arrange-
ment can be effected in reference to the present building.
II. That the following be the arrangement in regard to the latter matter : — •
1st. That the building be given to the parish of Kildonan to be used as a
manse.
2nd. Thai; the debt on the building, to .he amount of $1600, be raised and
paid ill the proportion of one-third each by the following jiarties, viz : 1st, The
p.irish of Kildonan ; 2nd, The Boan' of Management of Manitoba College;

All of wliich is respectfully submittetl.

AFI'ENDIX.
Minutes of Meeting of the Building Committee of Manitoba ColIiEgk.
At Mr. John Fraser's, the 11th day of August, 1873, the Building Committee
of Manitoba College met for the purpose of considering the present state of the
ins'itntion, and specially its proposed transfer from the present site to the Town
of Winning, and for the purpose of reporting their views on the same to the
Commissioners of the General Assembly, as by them requested, do hereby
submit the following conclusions : —
That the Committee most reluctantly find themselves compelled to with-
«Jraw fu ther opposition to the transfer of the College, for the following reasons : —
I. The Committee cannot see any way of raising the funas neelful to pay
off the debt of the College, say $1600, and to complete the Building, say $700
more. Because
(1.) The people o fWinnipeg, having set themselves to accomplish the proposed
transfer, can no longer be counted on to assist on raising the above named amounts;
and as the other congreg itions of the Church are poor, no consider tble sum can
be expected from them, and that the whole burden of $2,300 is by far too much
for Kildonan, however willing, to bear alone.
(2 ) That the movement for the transfer has alienated the minds of so many,
and induced such a feeling of insecurity about the whole matter, that any attempt
to raise funds, the Committee feel assured, would he a total failure.
(3. ) That from these and other causes, the confidence of the public in the per-
manency and efficiency of the institution has been so much shaken, that the
Committee have reason to believe that many students who would otherwise hare
been sent to the College, will now be withheld even should it be left where it is,
an J that others will be sent to other institutions, 8 ^^ rsl ksve already been, and
that therefore they cannot hope to secure such ( ' oer of students as to give
fit t-mployment to the- Professors' or to meet the run., jg exjienses of the Boarding
Department.
The Committee are aware that some of these reasons tell as strongly against
the success of the College in Winnipegas ic Kildonan, but that they thinK ia a
matter rather to be considered by the promoters of the transfer than by themselves.
II. The Committee having concluded to abandon further opposition to the
transfer, have to propose the following as the terms or conditions to which they are
disposed to agree.
1. That the Board of the College should assume and become legally re8i)on-
sible for the debt
2. That inasmuch as the Kildonan Congregation will sustain a serious losii
and disappointment by the removal of the College from amongst them, and inas-
mach as thej cimtribnted such a large projwrtion of the Building Fund, the
Building as it stands shall be made over to the Trustees of the said Congregation,
to be by them held for the Congregation 'bbehoot and benefit, and used or disposed
of as the Congregation may direct.
3. That in case the Bi ard should prefer to remove the Building, then, in
addition to the assumption of the debt as above, the Ci)mmittee have to propose
thMt the Board shall pay over to the Kildonan Congregation, or its lawful repre-
sertatives, as compensation for their share ia the building,, the sum of ;JP1,000, and
that they, for their part, shall reliiiquibh all claims to the remaining amount,
making up their coutrihution to rhe building lund.
4. That in case of any of the subscribers outside of Kildonan or Winnipeg,
feeling ajfgrieved at the removal of the ' oUege, should demand the return of tneir
subscriptions, the Board shall undertake to meet their demands or otherwise

arrange with them, and so relieve the Committee of all responsibility in the
matter.
It is to be distinctly ilnderstood that the Committee hereby express only
their own views as to wliat is b^st to be done in the circumstances, and wliat they
are willing to re orninend to the snbscribers ; but as they have not had an oppor-
tunity of consulting these, they aie not prepuied to guarantee that they will agree
either to thr tiiinsler or tlie terms.
While the Couiniittce, cons'rained by the necessities of their situation, reluct-
antly ngree in tin se conclusions, they cannot but fet-l stronijly that a gieat injury
has bei-n done to them and the pmple whom they rej)rt'S< :it by the nu>vement pr«-
ducing that situ itior. — a feeling deepened and intensiiied by the manner in which
the evil was done.

BEFOET OF COMMITTEE ON AGED AND INFIRM
MINISTERS' FUND.
Your committee, in presenting their annual report, have to call the atten-
tion of the Assembly to the fact that for th>* first time their expenditure exceeds
their income. They were anxious to accumulate a small capital in order to
enable them to give larger allowaiuies, and to provide against a period which
thev saw must soon come unless the Church would take some decnled iiotion,
when 1 he expendi n', would be in excess of the present income. This they
regret has come. 'J'he number on the fund is growing steadily, and promises
shortly to be very consiileralile ; while the expenses of living always in-
creasing, the amounts given, always small, ar- becoming sensibly of leas
value. Your wnnmittee deeply regret that the Church tna's so li,ditly the
claims of that portion of her ministers who are m )re or less ineapaeitated for
ministerial labour, and of the coni3;reg;itions to which some of those minister*
as, may we not say, are trying to minister, but with failiu<» en»irgy and dinnnishing
nsefulne,s.s. Some of our ministera do not even know that we get no share of tna
payments made by minis ers to the Widows' Fund, and all the etlons your
committee have made to get an increased inco ne have yer. met with no encour-
agenumt from the Assemdy. Ymr commitren hope that this Assembly will
take the matter properly in hand, and at all events give it a separate collectioa
or allow it to ask lor one, and to do otheiwise as it may see cause iu order t«
promote its objects.
98
APPENDIX,
The committee, as directed hy ]ast Assembly, submitted to an actuary — Mr.
Bamsay, of the Canada Life Assurance— the following questions : 1. How many
ministers per hundred may be counted as likely to be on the fund ? 2. What
income may be needed jjer hundred ministers ? 3. "What income would th»3
proposed rate afford ? and lastly, to give any information which he might deem
of value to the proper management of the fund. The regulations which were
sent to him were unchanged from last year, except that it was proposed that no
payment of less than $160 be made, and that the scale rise from that amount at
the rate of $10 a year after ten years, as proposed in the regulations of last
year.
Circumstances have prevented him giving hitherto the attention to the sub-
ject which he judges necessary. Your comm ttee will, as soon as possible, make
it known, if the Assembly allows, through the Record.
Your committee have, in addition to the annuitants of last year, three new
Barnes.
The names jjf annuitants and rates of payment are as follows : —
Mr. Smart, Brockville $200 Oft
" Gordon, Gananoque .• 200 0*
" Duff, Elora 200 00
" Fayette 200 0«
" Coutts, Chingaucousy 200 00
Dr. Cairns 100 00
Mr. Melville 150 00
" Fotheringham 150 00
" Lochead 200 00
" Mackenzie. Embro 200 00
Principal Willis 400 00
Mr. Malcolm 140 00
•' Chcyne, Saltfleet, etc 200 0(1
$2540 00
One of these has not been long on the list. All the others have drawn about
a year's income, some of them more, on account of back payments due at the
time of their admission, so that the amount paid this year, including expenses,
is actually $2696 67, while the income is only $2629 6. Your committee, in
view of the increasing claims, think that even should not the rates of payment
be increased, and should they be relieved of the p yment to Principal Willis,
that they should not be asked to meet the demands of the curient year with a
less income than $3,000. They would much prefer if they had an increase of
$6,000, and permission to deal liberally by those on the roll, provided that in no
case j-hould the grants exceed $400. Yonr committee, ?s directed V.y the lasv
Assembly, paid Principal Willis the sum of $400, but they ask this Assembly to
repay them this amount from the College Fund, because, 1st. This fund was
originated and has been wrought hitherto expressly for minister's of congrega-
tions ; and as the Principal was not pastor of a congregation in thU Church, he
has no claim on it. 2. At the time when his retiring allowance was fixed, it was
meant it should be a charge on the College Fund. 3. Though exceptional cases
are by the regulat'ons of the fund reserved for the Assembly, it never was meant
that the Assembly should be empowered to do more than merely to say who
should be on it, wb>!e the rule has been to leave the committee to fix the
allowance. 4. The Assen.'>>!y acted in any case in a most unusual manner, if
not beyond its competency, in o'dering the committee to pay to the Principal
out of its funds an amount equal to what anv two ministers get from it, and
$100 beyond what the preseut regulations allow to be given to any one, how-
evei necessitous his case may be.
Your committee also resolved, while ordering that the sum of $140 per annura
be paid to Mrs. Malcolm, to recommend that she he put on the Widows' Fund, and
that the amount advanced to her be repaid by that Fund, and that she rank as if sh*;

were a widow. Your committee have learned that there is a scheme on foot to
raise a sum of money for her, and they do not feel called on td" interfere with any
scheme of private benevolence, but they would rather the Assembly would put
them in such circumstances as to enable tluni to deal with the whole case, so
that if possible Mr. Malcolm might be provided for in the Asylum.
Your committee were applied to by the Presbytery of Huron on behalf of
Mr. Charles Fletcher, Goderich, and by the Presbytery of London on behalf of
Mr. James Donaldson, Port Burwell. These cases, though widely different in
their character, are both really clamant, but your committee were not able to
deal with them, as they do not fall within the regulations, and therefore they
refer them to the Assembly and ask its favorable consideration. If the Assembly
allows, the committee are willing to give them a place on its roll.
Your committee has also been asked to sanction a scheme for raising the
sum of $2,000, this sum to bo invested, the interest devoted to the support of
Mr. Carruthers, the capital at his death to fall into this fund. Your committee
are favorably disposed to it, and Avill encourage it unless forbidden by the
Assembly.
Proposal Regulaf/ions of Aged and Infirm Ministcrai' Fuiid.
1. That no one shall .share in this fund who enters the mini'^try of this
Church alter reaching the age of fifty.
2. That in order to have a claim on this fund, each minister who has $600 or
under from professional employment, must h(!nccforth contribute yearly thereto
fifty cents for every hundred dollars of said income, and each whose income
exceeds $600 shall pay one dollar for every hundred.
3. That anyone who at the period of his settlement in a charge in this
Church shall neglect to connect himself with this fund shall be dealt with as
in arrears thereto. That for all arrenrs one-tenth additional nmst be paid, and
that any one who for four years neglects to join, or having done so shall for that
time again cease to pay, shall lose all interest in tlie fund, unless some solid
cause is assigned, and that is certified to the committee by the Presbytery within
whose bounds the person resides. Further, that notice be given to each before
he is cut oti'; but that should the committee neglect to do so, that neglect does
not prolong the defaulter's right.
i. That no Presbytery shall accept of a resignation if, as the i„.sult thereof,
an application is to be made to this committee, until due diligence has been used
to get from the congmgation an allowance for the retiring minister, and the
Presbytery shall, when making the application, satisfy the committee on this
subject ere any grant is made. »
5. That each who is admitted shall, if he has served ten years or under,
receive at the rate of $150 a year. If he has served over ten years, he shall
receive at the rate of $10 in addition for ea'di year of said excess till the amount
of $300 is reached.
6. That all ministers who serve 40 years, or till they have reached the age
of 70, shall, if they retire in a proper and orderly way, receive the sum of $400
a year.
7. That each annuitant shall, at the beginning of April in each year, furnish
the committee with a statement, certified by the clerk of his Presbytery, of the
amount received by him on account of labour during the preceding year, and that
no payment be made at that term till such statement is received, and that the
committee may if they see cause diminish or withdraw the grant.
8. That if the income of the committee be not sufficient to meet the pHy-
ments according to the scale here proposed, the coramiteee shall reduce them all
at the same rate.
9. Exceptional cases referred for the consideration of the Assembly.

REPORT OP THE FINANCE COMMITTEE.
The printed statement of the general agent and treasurer for the schemes
«^ the Church show the receipts for the various schemej of the Church. These
•ome up in connection with the reports of the several standing committees, and need
Hot be more specially dwelt upon here. It may simply be observed that about all
the receipts are in advance of last year, except those for Knox College. Several
eoiitribiitions for this object have, however, been received since the accounts were
finally closed. In regard to the Assembly Fund, the following special report is
Bubmitted : —
A meeting of the Finance Committee_was held on the 25th July, 1873 — the
Moderator of Assembly in the chair.
It was agreed to aim at raising by assessment throuihoi'l, the several Presby-
teries the sum of three thousand four hundred and fifty three dollars, ($3,453),
part of which was to cover the balance of last year.
The committee proposed to allocate the amount among the several Presbj'-
teriesin the fnllo wing way, namely : The larger and more wealthy Presbyteries
were expected to contribute at the rate of 8 cents per member, a number at 7 and
the smaller at 6 cents. From the report of the gnnenvl agent of the Church, it
appears that the amount actually raised is three thousand and seventy-one dollars
and eighty-seven cents,! $3071.87), and the payments, including balance at debtors
at the bes^iiiniiig of the year, amount to three thousand six hundred and sixty-
nine dollars and .seventeen cents ($3669. 17 ), leaving a balance of five hundred and
ninety-seven dollars and thirty cents, ($597.30) sti'l against the fund.
The committee, in estimating the amount required, had reason to think that
in two years the amount i)f debt would be entirely removed: and on the whole
the mode adopted has been so successful, that your committee would respectfully
recommend to the Assembly that it be continued, urging upon each Presbytery
at th'j samn time to see that its spocitied amount be raised and forw.ii'ded.
All which is respectfully submitted.
