is necessary to largely increase our collections and donations or incur a debt4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,our ,,illustrated ,,article4 ,it gives us pleasure to place before our readers in this number an illustrated article on our ,dakota ,mission4 ,the plates were prepared for the use jointly of the ,,illustrated ,,christian ,,weekly and the ,,american ,,missionary4 ,the article was written by ,rev4 ,addison ,p4 ,foster1 one of our ,executive ,committee who visited the mission last year4 ,the popularity of the ,indian number of the ,,missionary which we issued in ,april1 #ahhc1 leads us to hope that this number will be welcomed and preserved for use as occasion may offer4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,our ,,indian ,,missions4 ,nine schools1 with #cef pupils2 five churches1 with #bga members2 five stations2 thirteen missionaries2 thirty-seven teachers1 are the statistics4 ,the churches are ,congregational1 and the church and school go hand in hand4 ,a careful survey of the necessities of these missions was made early in the year1 and the estimate called for an appropriation of about #cj1jjj4 ,repairs and improvements in old buildings and construction of new buildings1 imperatively demanded for the efficient prosecution of the work1 forbade a lower estimate4 ,in surrendering our ,african missions1 obedient to the voice of the churches that our appeal might be simplified1 we gave up the proceeds of invested funds that in large part sustained that work2 while in receiving from the ,american ,board its ,indian missions1 there was placed just so much additional demand upon our treasury4 ,our inevitable outlook was a trilemma--either enlarged receipts1 or retrenchment1 or debt4 ,we therefore sent to about fifteen hundred ,congregational ministers in ,february last a printed circular asking3 ,first--,shall we raise this year #cj1jjj for our mission work among the ,indians8 ,second--,will you aid1 and how8 ,up to date we have received #bjf replies4 ,to the first question the answers are nearly all in the affirmative2 most of them strong and positive1 a few cautious and questioning4 ,to the second1 #cc responded with immediate contributions2 #dc promised an increase in the regular church collections1 #ga a special contribution from the missionary concert1 and #c the proceeds of a lecture4 ,the replies are representative4 ,ministers in charge of the strong churches1 and those in charge of the weaker1 speak the same language of encouragement4 ,go ahead4 ,forward6 is the word4 ,we will back you4 ,it is no more than fair that those who have hitherto sustained these ,indian missions through the ,a4 ,b4 ,c4 ,f4 ,m4 should now turn their hand into the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 to increase its funds for this work4 ,thirty thousand dollars will do more and better work than so many muskets4 ,we love your work and will aid you all we can4 ,such are the sentiments these letters breathe4 ,from all parts of the country they come4 ,california strikes hands with ,massachusetts1 ,washington ,territory and ,utah range themselves with ,florida1 all of them wishing us ,god-speed1 and promising help in our ,indian work4 ,we are glad to have received such encouragement as these letters give1 and sincerely thank our brethren who took the trouble and time to answer our inquiries4 ,we trust that none of them will fail to see that the promises are fulfilled4 ,there will be in some cases need of special remembrance4 ,interests crowd in these days4 ,even what is lawful and regular has to fight for recognition4 ,there are others who have not answered our questions1 upon whose co-operation to bring up that #cj1jjj we also rely4 ,we hope that as they read these lines their eyes will detect the special appeal1 implied1 though not expressed1 that is here made to them4 ,we commend anew the claims of these important missions to our friends1 and again remind them that if we are to worthily do this enlarged work they must come up to our help with enlarged contributions4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,our ,,spring ,,associations4 ,,rev4 ,j4 ,e4 ,,roy1 ,d4,d4 ,there were four of them1 those of ,alabama1 at ,montgomery2 of ,louisiana1 at ,new ,orleans2 of ,mississippi1 at ,meridian2 and

contributions was that of ,mrs4 ,ash1 widow of the late ,rev4 ,w4 ,h4 ,ash1 upon the dress and deportment of the teacher4 ,the body representing the churches and the ministers came up to its own high-water mark of intellectual force and spiritual tone4 ,among the practical subjects discussed was that of the relation of the churches toward secret societies4 ,in the whole discussion not a word was offered in defense of the clandestine orders4 ,it would have done ,brother ,fee good to have heard the fearless discussion4 ,the church of ,montgomery1 under the care of ,rev4 ,r4 ,c4 ,bedford1 was found in a prosperous condition1 ten members being received during the sessions of the body4 ,prof4 ,g4 ,w4 ,andrews1 an early pastor of the church1 had the pleasure of baptizing into the church a

again4 ,during the sessions1 by a proper ,council1 ,mr4 ,byron ,gunner1 of the ,theological ,department of ,talladega ,college1 was examined and ordained to serve as pastor at ,new ,iberia1 the place

brother1 ,rev4 ,daniel ,clay1 preached the opening sermon on the text1 ,fear not1 little flock1 for it is your ,father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom4 ,the whole body was at the ,boarding ,hall of the ,straight ,university for a lunch1 when the ,president made the members a fine present of books from a ,northern society4 ,the meeting of the ,mississippi body was the second1 and it revealed a maturing process4 ,president ,pope and ,professor ,hatch represented ,tougaloo ,university--the president preaching a sermon on ,christian ,industry1 and the professor reading a capital

for the ,school and ,church process1 and these will be entered and occupied as soon as may be4 ,the ,old ,north ,state held its fifth annual meeting on the first four days of ,may1 at ,dudley4 ,this was a place at which the colored people1 during the ,ku-,klux terror1 refugeed1 making there a stand for life--the hunted creatures at bay4 ,early the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 opened here its ,mission ,school and ,church4 ,difficulties1 peculiar to the heterogeneous material thus gathered1 have gradually been overcome1 until now the gospel is in the ascendant as an assimilating force4 ,the church and school under ,rev4 ,j4 ,e4 ,b4 ,jewett and his wife1 of ,pepperell1 ,mass41 are in a high degree of prosperity4 ,the ,new ,england ,academy ,principal seems especially adapted to these children of toil4 ,the ,association had the round of discussions1 essays1 devotional meetings4 ,the ,national ,council and the annual meeting of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 were duly reported4 ,the new ,confession of ,faith was heartily approved4 ,a memorial service for the late ,rev4 ,islay ,walden1 a native of ,north ,carolina1 was a marked feature of the occasion4 ,the great work he had accomplished for his people in so short a time was instructive and encouraging to the other young ministers1 and to the young people of the ,assembly4 ,mrs4 ,elenora ,walden continues the school work of her husband1 greatly confided

,when ,paul and ,barnabas were about to set forth to labor among the heathen1 ,cephas1 ,james and ,john gave them the right hand of fellowship with a charge included in these words3 ,only that they would remember the poor4 ,how they should do it had been indicated by ,him who said of his own labors the poor have the gospel preached to them4 ,the expression the poor is comprehensive4 ,all human wants relate to it4 ,the poverty of some1 however1 is more complete than that of others1 and the poorest have early1 if not the first1 claim to attention4 ,the ,pauls and ,barnabases of our times may justly listen to appeals which arise from the following conditions3 #a4 ,ignorance4 ,in this country it may be said ignorance is the mother of poverty4 ,indeed1 ignorance is one of the worst forms of poverty4 ,intelligence among the masses1 coupled with true religion1 would soon abolish it4 ,whatever is lacking of knowledge of ,god1 of what ,he has promised1 of what ,he has made for us1 of what we can do for ourselves1 must be supplied4 ,it was an observation of ,dean ,stanley that we ought to teach the heathen how to count three before attempting to instruct them as to the doctrine of the ,trinity4 ,the great ,preacher was the great ,teacher also4 ,if there be the greatest ignorance ,south1 the appeal from the ,south to us to remember the poor is urgent and imperative4 #b4 ,poverty4 ,where a large proportion of the people can neither read nor write1 there nothing but a fractional supply for human wants is to be expected4 ,inadequate buildings meagerly furnished1 insufficient clothing for the young1 lack of medical care and neglect of the aged and infirm--these are evil conditions only too common all over the ,south1 rendering much that ministers to a thrifty and manly character impossible1 as things are now4 ,where there is the greatest sickness1 privation and want1 there apostles to the poor have legitimate field for labor4 ,is there any such field in our country as that presented at the ,south8 #c4 ,vice4 ,it is admitted that ignorance and poverty beget vice4 ,according to recent statistics1 gathered from the whole country1 it is shown that the illiterate classes commit more than ten times their pro rata of crime4 ,the missionary must stay the progress of vice1 drying up its sources as best he may1 and uncapping the fountains of life4 ,to do this he must impart knowledge and preach the gospel4 ,if1 in consequence of the ignorance and poverty of the people ,south1 there is vice and crime unparalleled in the annals of our country2 if these things combined constitute a poverty unknown elsewhere in the land when estimated by its extent1 then those who seek the poorest will not neglect the millions in the ,southern ,states4 ,it is our work1 as an ,association1 to do what we can to render these people the help needful4 ,will not the friends of ,christ help us remember the poor8 99 99 99 99 99 ,,christian ,,educators ,,in ,,council is the title

spend nearly a month in a trip of investigation among the ,dakota ,indians4 ,a record of observations thus made may perhaps be of interest4 ,across the ,missouri1 in ,northern ,nebraska1 is a reservation about twelve miles square on which are located the ,santees4 ,these ,indians came originally from ,minnesota1 and were concerned in the terrible ,new ,ulm massacre there4 ,this was years ago4 ,after that bloody outbreak a large number of ,indians were imprisoned4 ,while thus incarcerated they were deeply moved by the truths of religion4 ,the long and faithful labors of ,drs4 ,riggs and ,williamson bore fruit1 and very many were truly converted4 ,these ,minnesota ,indians were subsequently removed1 a portion to the ,sisseton ,agency1 a portion to ,flandreau1 and a portion to the ,santee ,agency4 ,at this last-named spot the ,indians are practically civilized4 ,they wear the white man's dress2 they cultivate farms of their own2 they sustain two churches1 one ,episcopal and one ,congregational1 the latter having its excellent native pastor and an outlying chapel where the native deacons conduct meetings in turn2 they have recently1 to the number of fifty1 taken up land under the homestead laws and now own them in fee simple4 ,there are three boarding schools on the reservation1 one sustained by the ,american ,missionary ,association and in the charge of the ,rev4 ,a4 ,l4 ,riggs1 another sustained by the ,episcopalians1 under the jurisdiction of ,bishop ,hare1 and a third supported by the ,government1 of which ,rev4 ,charles ,seccombe1 a ,congregationalist1 is principal4 ,the work in all these schools is admirable4 ,the children are neat1 intelligent1 attractive1 orderly1 and studious1 and while not as far advanced nor as quick1 will compare favorably with the children of schools among white people4 ,the development of ,indian character under these ,christianizing influences was remarkably shown in a visit to one of the cottages on the mission4 ,here dwell one of the native teachers1 her mother and grandmother4 ,the aged grandmother in her whole appearance bespoke the wild ,indian4 ,gray and bent with age1 she loved best to sit on the floor in a corner1 after the fashion of her people4 ,the mother1 a comely matron of perhaps forty-five1 was evidently more cultivated1 was lady-like in her appearance1 and had lines of thoughtfulness on her thin face4 ,the work of civilization had made great advance in her4 ,but the daughter1 a young lady of eighteen1 well educated1 knowing only the ways of civilization1 was as thoroughly refined and bright and attractive as the young ladies of our own ,christian homes4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,burying ,,ground4 ,at ,oahe1 fifteen miles west of ,pierre1 ,dakota ,territory1 is a second mission station1 under the charge of the ,american ,missionary ,association4 ,up and down the river1 on what is known as the ,peoria ,bottom1 are perhaps a hundred families of ,indians1 each living on their own homesteads1 off reservation limits1 cultivating their farms1 dwelling in comfortable log-houses1 dressed in civilized garb1 and showing as much neatness and industry as the average white man4 ,these people are recognized as citizens and are voters4 ,they have a neat chapel1 a native pastor1 sustain admirable prayer-meetings--a woman's prayer-meeting among them--and live good reputable lives4 ,in this spot and at ,santee ,agency the ,indian is seen at his best4 ,life and property are respected1 the land is fairly tilled1 the homes are happy1 intelligence is general1 and religion is the universal motive-power4 ,illustration3 ,,wigwams ,,among ,,the ,,sioux4 ,on the west side of the ,missouri in ,dakota lies the great ,sioux ,reservation1 containing #h1jjj ,indians at the ,pine ,ridge ,agency1 nearly #h1jjj at the ,rosebud ,agency1 #a1ejj of the ,lower ,brule ,indians1 #c1jjj along the ,cheyenne ,river and northward1 and nearly #d1jjj on the ,standing ,rock ,agency4 ,it was my fortune to visit a number of villages on the ,cheyenne1 ,morrow1 and ,grand ,rivers and at ,standing ,rock4 ,the ,indians at these places are all wild--that is1 still wear blankets1 breech-cloths1 and leggings1 feathers and geegaws1 do little toward cultivating the land1 and are ignorant heathen4 ,a ,sabbath in a village on the ,cheyenne showed what wild ,indians were4 ,the morning opened with two men disguised in buffalo-skins with the heads on1 running through the village4 ,they had had a dream1 were supposed to be possessed of spirits1 and as they chased the villagers all ran from them1 affrighted lest some witchcraft be wrought by them4 ,presently the church-bell rang at the missionary's tent1 and fifty ,indians came in1 gaudy in paints and wampum1 ornaments1 and dangling queues tied up with mink-skins1 the chief wearing a broken down beaver hat with a faded weed upon it1 and the rest supplied with fans of eagles' wings1 pipes1 and other accompaniments of ,indian gentlemen4 ,they listened with occasional grunts of approval during worship1 and filed out at the close with a cordial handshake1 one remaining1 named from his height ,touch-the-,clouds1 to say that he felt the importance of this new way1 and that he wished for himself and his people schools and churches4 ,this was encouraging1 but as the evening came on there set up a hideous noise2 a dance was in progress1 and all night long a relay of three ,indians kept up the hideous and monotonous tom-tom of their kettle-drums1 while the shrill scream of the women pierced the air4 ,the next morning were things equally painful4 ,a young ,indian woman1 with four children to care for1 put away by her cruel husband for another wife1 came to beg the missionary's influence to secure for her ,government rations4 ,a tent hard by was visited1 where the family1 in accordance with ,indian superstitions1 were gathering1 and had been for a year or two1 all sorts of valuable articles for presents in honor of some deceased member of the household1 intending by-and-by to distribute all these things1 leaving themselves beggared4 ,and last of all1 in a neighboring village were seen three men and a boy1 clad with a few feathers in their hair1 and yellow ochre on their bodies1 going through mummeries in the sight of a large company4 ,they were making mystery1 whatever that may be4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,girls ,,at ,,santee ,,normal ,,training ,,school4 ,at ,standing ,rock were ,sitting ,bull and ,chief ,gall1 with their bands4 ,not many years ago they had been on the war path2 they were concerned in the ,custer massacre2 but now they are in wholesome awe of the ,government and dependent on ,government favor for daily bread4 ,consequently they are orderly and peaceable1 and though a few years since it would have been dangerous for three unarmed men to pass through their reservations1 it was perfectly safe last summer for a missionary speaking the ,indian language and his friends4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,in ,,native ,,dress1 ,,fort ,,berthold4 ,a third class of ,indians was found at ,fort ,berthold4 ,this reservation is a hundred miles north of ,bismarck1 ,dakota ,territory1 on the east side of the ,missouri4 ,there are three small tribes combined in one large village for protection against their ancient enemies the ,sioux1 namely1 the ,arickarees1 the ,mandans1 and the ,gros ,ventres4 ,these ,indians have latterly made great advances in civilization4 ,they have #hjj acres under cultivation1 all looking admirably and well fenced in1 and they are taking great pride in their work and asking for more land to cultivate4 ,they have comfortable homes1 or lodges1 as they are called1 made in an octagonal form1 of logs completely covered with earth4 ,they are eagerly obtaining from the ,government such comforts of civilization as they can--reapers1 cooking-stoves1 baking-powder1 and the like4 ,and yet this people display some of the grossest elements of savagery4 ,polygamy is common4 ,the disgusting scaffold burials still go on1 and the air in the neighborhood of the village is sometimes foul from the adjacent cemetery4 ,buffalo heads and poles with red streamers1 as offerings or invocations to spirits1 surmount many of the lodges and bear witness to the heathenism of the people4 ,many of the men are terribly scarred on the shoulders1 breast and arms with the cruel practices of the sun dance4 ,men and women alike wear the dress of their savage life4 ,there has been as yet little success from schools or church work4 ,few care for schools1 and the attendance at the mission chapel is not large4 ,the fault1 however1 is not with the devoted missionaries1 ,rev4 ,c4 ,l4 ,hall and his helpers of the ,american ,missionary ,association1 whose faithfulness is unsurpassed1 but with bad white men who visit the village4 ,for years these ,indians have been brought in contact with some of the worst influences of civilization1 and in consequence the women have become gross1 the men have lost their sense of honor1 and the people are manifestly more degraded and harder to reach than the wild ,indians on the ,sioux ,reservation4 ,after observation of these three types of ,indians1 the ,christianized1 the wild and the polluted1 certain conclusions were inevitable4 #a4 ,there is a natural nobility in the ,indian character4 ,the ,indian is debased by heathenism and his wild life1 lazy1 improvident1 filthy1 obscene and cruel2 and yet he is well endowed by nature with brains and heart and conscience4 ,he is clear-headed and generous2 he is often affectionate in his family2 he is capable of becoming industrious1 conscientious1 scholarly1 and thoroughly consecrated4 ,if his wild life has affected him unfavorably1 it has not done him the same kind of harm that slavery has to the colored man4 ,he is not crushed in spirit and ambition as was the colored slave at the time of the civil war4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,woman ,,at ,,fort ,,berthold4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,lodge ,,at ,,fort ,,berthold4 #b4 ,there1 as elsewhere1 the gospel proves the most efficient instrumentality4 ,the ,united ,states ,government is doing a noble work for the elevation of the race by introducing the agencies of civilization4 ,the ,indian agents in ,dakota are1 as a rule1 noble men1 vieing with the missionaries in endeavors to benefit the race4 ,the ,board of ,indian ,commissioners are deserving of all praise for their great services4 ,the present system of ,government management in establishing schools1 in encouraging agriculture1 in discountenancing savage practices1 in stimulating the home-life1 is most admirable4 ,but ,christian efforts are yet more efficacious4 ,it is where the gospel has sway the longest1 or has been the chief influence1 that the ,indians are the most elevated4 ,illustration3 ,,santee ,,indians ,,ten ,,years ,,ago4 #c4 ,it cannot be questioned that we have come to a new stage in ,indian affairs4 ,at last there is throughout the country almost complete control of the wild ,indians4 ,the day of ,indian wars is over4 ,we may very likely never have another4 ,now that the buffalo has largely disappeared1 the ,indian is dependent on the ,government supplies for food and clothing1 unless1 like the white man1 he resorts to agriculture4 ,in consequence1 without any large display of military force1 the ,indian agents are able to preserve excellent order on the reservations4 ,the ,indians feel their dependence and recognize the power of the ,government4 ,if fairly treated by the white man they will give us little trouble hereafter4 ,it is easy to see that modifications in their condition1 all looking toward civilization1 are constantly taking place4 ,they are giving up their ,indian dress4 ,it is now rare to find an ,indian whose dress is not in some way conformed to the white man's4 ,they are learning the comforts of civilization through the supplies from ,government1 and welcome the frame house1 the sugar and syrup1 the flour and beans1 the tools and clothing which come to them from this source4 ,they feel the pressure of the white population crowding upon them from every side4 ,they see their wild life is a thing of the past1 and while there are selfish1 vicious1 superstitious and conservative influences strongly at work against the change1 still the change goes on4 ,their more thoughtful men1 perceiving the necessity of the change and recognizing its advantage1 are urging the establishment of schools and churches among them4 ,there can be little doubt that as these processes continue the tribal relation will eventually cease1 the reservation system will be abandoned1 the ,indian will come under ordinary laws1 he will be assigned land in severalty1 will cultivate it for his support1 and become citizen4 ,already this is true of many ,indians1 and the day is not far distant--,i venture to prophesy that it is within the next twenty years--when1 if these influences continue1 the ,indian will be so thoroughly absorbed among his white brethren that as a separate race he will be lost to sight1 and the ,indian question will be a question no more4

is on horseback beside him4 ,his wives and younger children are seated on the ground4 ,the influence of civilization already appears in the dress of these people and in their use of cattle4 ,the second cut represents a small portion of the large burying-ground at ,fort ,berthold4 ,the wigwams in the third cut are mostly of skin1 but generally canvas furnished by the ,government is now used4 ,the arrangement of poles and the desolate appearance of the tents scattered here and there are true to life4 ,in the sixth cut the heavy earrings and necklace are of wampum and very valuable4 ,the

mink-skin pendants4 ,his constant companion1 a pipe of red pipe-clay1 is in his lap4 ,the lodge in the seventh cut admirably represents the peculiar homes of ,fort ,berthold ,indians4 ,it is very large1 and sometimes divided into several rooms inside4 ,it is well constructed as a protection against the severe winters of ,northern ,dakota4 ,illustration3 ,,indian ,,boys ,,at ,,santee ,,normal

their ancient enemies1 the ,sioux1 steal upon them unaware4 ,beside the ,indian may be seen the wicker framework of a bull boator1 skin coracle4 ,the ,indians can seize these in a moment1 run with them on their heads to the river1 and paddle across the ,missouri with ease after a deer or a buffalo4 ,in the foreground is a travoir1 or ,indian wagon1 made of two poles with a pouch of leather

me to do in noting down my observation of the work of ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 among the ,chinese here than to indorse the statements made by the ,rev4 ,dr4 ,mc,lean in the ,april number of this magazine4 ,as far as the school work for the ,chinese in the ,english language is concerned1 the honor of beginning it belongs1 ,i think1 to ,mrs4 ,elizabeth ,l4 ,lynde1 now deceased1 a member of the ,first ,congregational ,church in this city at the time4 ,her heart1 which was singularly alert in behalf of the neglected and unfortunate1 set her in the year #ahfg to teaching two or three ,chinese at her house4 ,these were servants in families4 ,meantime the boy employed in my own house--since favorably known as our chief helper in missionary work1 ,jee ,gam--was spelling out1 by the aid of my little girls and their mother1 the mysteries of our ,english language1 and little by little learning the great mystery of godliness4 ,interest deepened in the two or three who were thus drawn together4 ,so1 ,mrs4 ,lynde's little class was transferred to our chapel1 and soon became a prominent and hopeful department of our ,sunday-school4 ,it was a rare pleasure given me to receive1 in #ahgj1 the first three ,chinamen known as admitted to membership by confession of faith in an ,english-speaking church in this land4 ,for several years ,i had the opportunity of direct participation in this new missionary movement1 often taking my place as teacher of the new alphabet and guide to the pronunciation of many unphonetic words4 ,at first there was novelty about it and it was comparatively easy to obtain even the numerous teachers which this work requires4 ,but as the novelty wore off it became more difficult to find and keep volunteers in sufficient numbers4 ,besides1 a demand arose for more than the hour of the ,sunday-school service4 ,the eagerness to learn and the increasing acquisition of some called for a more constant and continuous drill4 ,so has come about the system of schools carried on1 under the ,american ,missionary ,association's appropriations and our ,california gifts1 by the ,california ,chinese ,mission4 ,i bear glad witness to the large measure of devotion with which this work has been conducted4 ,it is precisely the kind of work to bring out the best qualities of ,christian character in those who are responsibly engaged in it4 ,the motives for engaging in it drawn from any other than the purest ,christian fountains are few indeed4 ,the men and women1 who1 within my knowledge1 have given their time and heart to it1 have long been among my evidences of ,christianity4 ,to the poor the ,gospel has been preached by them4 ,several of those most interested during the early years1 as superintendents or teachers1 have been laid aside or have gone home4 ,but there can be no doubt that the ,master has said to them1 ,inasmuch as ye did it unto the least of my disciples1 ye have done it unto me4 ,for this is pre-eminently the work which makes its appeal to the few4 ,to sustain it pecuniarily as well as otherwise1 must pertain to those who give1 hoping for nothing in kind again4 ,those here who would give1 perhaps1 to help ,africans on the ,congo1 cannot always be appealed to in behalf of this cause4 ,a worthy ,christian friend who has charge of a ,sunday-school consulted me about a gift he was interesting his scholars to make to some missionary4 ,whom could ,i suggest8 ,it was natural1 being on this ,pacific sea1 to suggest a laborer in northern ,china4 ,it was amusing to see how quickly he dropped my suggestion as if it were something very hot4 ,why1 it would not do at all to mention ,china in that school4 ,it would kill his darling missionary proposition completely4 ,this illustrates not by any means a universal feeling here1 but a feeling which is quite too prevalent4 ,and there are many who would help to teach the ,mongolians if they were to be taught where they belong1 who would be almost offended to be asked to help in their education here4 ,so all the more admirable1 in the face of public sentiment here1 is it that so many noble workers and givers have been found to sustain this work4 ,for is not this1 of all others1 the enterprise which takes the gold right out of the country8 ,i overheard an intelligent gentleman1 a member of ,congress1 and born in my native ,massachusetts1 express the duly considered opinion that the ,chinese mind is so organized that it cannot be expected to entertain the ,christian ideas4 ,it illustrated the sad fact that it takes a long time for even ,americans to entertain and be molded by those ideas4 ,this gentleman might easily have found scores of humble servants and laborers of this unassimilable race in his own city who had come as truly in the power of ,him1 who is the ,truth1 as any of us4 ,for it is the testimony of all who are acquainted with the facts that as large a proportion of those ,chinese who take the ,christian name adorn the doctrine as do those who take that name from among the ,caucasian families4 ,indeed1 the proportion may1 perhaps1 be larger4 ,for what can ordinarily induce a ,chinaman to espouse the ,christian standing here unless it be the genuine appreciation of ,christian truth and the response of his heart to the love of ,god as shown in the cross of ,christ8 99 99 99 99 99 ,,bureau ,,of ,,woman',s ,,work4 ,,miss ,d4

,southern field under its special care2 referring also to the interest1 courtesy and sympathy which the ,boston society had always shown toward the ,alabama branch4 ,mrs4 ,o4 ,f4 ,curtis1 of ,emerald ,grove1 ,wis41 was present1 who has two sons in the ,south as missionaries and one on the foreign field--,rev4 ,w4 ,w4 ,curtis1 of ,japan--who addressed the meeting on the condition of the women and girls in that country2 what is being done by the missionaries to lead them to ,christ2 also speaking of the hindrances to the ,christian religion4 ,this interesting meeting could not fail to awaken a deeper interest in the hearts of all present1 and we believe that no one left without feeling that she had gained a new impulse to renewed consecration and work for the ,master4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,sunday-,,school ,,work ,,at ,,tougaloo4 ,,miss ,,josephine ,,kellogg4 ,the ,sunday-school of this ,institution has always--under the present management at least--been considered one of the most important1 if not the most important means of grace and spiritual enlightenment4 ,the power of sustained attention and consecutive thought is greatly lacking in all untrained minds2 hence the superiority of the hand-to-hand question-and-answer method of the class-room over the sermon as a means of informing the mind and clearing away the rubbish of superstition and the misapprehensions of meaning1 derived from the ignorant preachers who have been in many cases the only previous expounders of the word1 and resulting also from a very vague and limited understanding of the language of the ,bible1 the preacher--even the teacher4 ,it would be impossible for one new to the work to even grasp at the distorted images and superstitious misconceptions connected with religious subjects in the minds of the more ignorant colored people without the free interchange of personal conversation4 ,so for years the ,sunday-school has been placed at the head of the ,sabbath services here1 and given the forenoon1 the review by the ,superintendent occupying the time of a short sermon1 with the lesson for the day1 already explained and impressed by the several teachers1 for its text4 ,later in the day class prayer-meetings are held1 and here young ,christians learn to take up the cross of bearing testimony for ,christ1 and making audible prayer for themselves and others4 ,many of the scholars feel these meetings to be very valuable4 ,at the close of the school year a ,sunday-school ,convention is held1 and it is urged as a duty upon all ,christian students who go out to teach that they should organize and conduct ,sabbath schools in connection with their day schools4 ,we have recently received two donations of library books1 so that we now have enough to go once around1 and we loan them out each ,sunday4 ,we also generally have papers to distribute1 sent us by kind and careful ,sunday-school scholars in the ,north who make their papers do double duty4 ,if some school changing song-books would send our school a hundred or more well-preserved copies of those they lay aside1 it would be a gift highly appreciated4 ,one of our neighbors is a good ,mother in ,israel1 who has always taken a warm interest in this institution in all its departments and appreciated its uplifting influence upon her people4 ,she belongs to one of the branches of the ,methodist ,church1 and felt that she wanted something done for the improvement and revival of interest in the schools of that denomination in the vicinity4 ,accordingly1 she worked up a ,s4 ,s4 ,convention among them last ,fall1 and invited ,mr4 ,pope and some others of us to go and help to make it profitable4 ,we could not get off until after dinner and might as well not have gone at all4 ,soon after our entrance a young man introduced a resolution that superintendents and teachers be compelled to be at their schools at the hour set for opening4 ,one of the preachers rose and said that teachers could not be compelled1 and moved as an amendment that they be acquired to come promptly4 ,then ensued along1 windy1 wordy controversy on compelling and acquiring4 ,seeing no prospect of a conclusion we withdrew4 ,the good auntie who had invited us followed us out in deep humiliation4 ,i said1 we are sorry to go without contributing something to the interest of the meeting1 but this is such a waste of time1 there is no coming to the point4 ,that's jus' so1 dear1 she said1 but that their ign'rance4 ,ign'rance does waste time1 honey4 ,ign'rance can't come to a pint4 ,that last sentence struck me as a piece of epigrammatic wisdom4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,children',s ,,page 99 99 99 99 99 ,,wong ,,ning',s ,,ideas ,,as ,,expressed ,,by ,,himself4 ,wong ,ning is no imaginary character4 ,he is a real flesh-and-blood
