,,church ,,at ,,wilmington1 ,n4,c4 ,the new meeting-house for the ,first ,congregational ,church of ,wilmington1 in connection with the work of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a41 was dedicated on the evening of ,march #abth4 7,see picture on opposite page47 ,the history of the house and the services of dedication are of sufficient interest to warrant a notice in these pages4 ,something like a year ago1 a gentleman who signed himself 8,howard10 and whose real name was only known at the ,boston office1 gave #c1jjj to build the house4 ,rev4 ,d4 ,d4 ,dodge1 our ,superintendent at ,wilmington1 was charged with the duty of securing a site1 of procuring plans and estimates1 and of building the house within the sum appropriated4 ,this work ,mr4 ,dodge duly undertook1 intending to build of wood1 but1 after the foundations were laid and the frame was up1 8,howard0 signified his wish to have the frame 8jacketed0 with brick1 and for that purpose added #fjj more to his donation1 thus making the entire coat #c1fjj4 ,the house will seat #dej people1 is #gb feet in length by #cf in width1 and measures #bb feet in the clear4 ,it has a corner tower rising #ajj feet from the street below1 and is the highest object in the city1 and the first seen on approaching the city from the ,sound4 ,the brick is of a deep red1 and1 though not pressed1 looks as if it were4 ,the proportions of the building could not well be more perfect or more pleasing to the eye4 ,both the local press and the people speak of it as an ornament to the city1 and express surprise that it could have been built for a sum less than eight or ten thousand dollars4 ,it should be said1 however1 that all the parties on the ground of whom the material was bought1 sold at the lowest rates2 those furnishing the lumber1 sashes1 doors and iron1 throwing off the entire local profit2 and ,mr4 ,barstow1 of ,providence1 ,r4,i41 #fe per cent4 from the two furnaces to heat the house4 ,mr4 ,dodge1 also1 gave his time to the work2 and ,mr4 ,weston1 of ,nashua1 ,n4,h41 who laid the brick1 a part of his4 ,this will account in part for so fine a building at so moderate an outlay of money4 ,a large1 dry and light cellar extends under the whole building1 which will furnish needed room for storing coal1 wood1 c41 for the mission4 ,the services of dedication occurred in the following order3 #a4 ,anthem1 by the ,choir4 #b4 ,prayer1 by ,rev4 ,mr4 ,dodge4 #c4 ,reading of the ,scriptures1 by ,rev4 ,dr4 ,taylor1 of the ,first ,baptist 7white7 ,church of the city4 #d4 ,singing4 #e4 ,sermon1 by ,rev4 ,c4 ,l4 ,woodworth1 from ,luke xiv4 #bc4 #f4 ,dedicatory ,prayer1 by ,rev4 ,dr4 ,wilson1 of the ,first ,presbyterian ,church 7white74 ,after the dedication proper1 8,howard0--who turns out to be the ,hon4 ,james ,j4 ,h4 ,gregory1 of ,marblehead1 ,mass4--was introduced as the giver of the house4 ,in an address full of feeling and of good sense he offered the salutations and the fellowship of the ,northern ,congregational ,churches4 ,drs4 ,wilson and ,taylor followed with words of kindly greeting1 and assurances of sympathy and co-operation from their respective churches3 the former slyly saying that the only thing he wished different was that the church was ,presbyterian1 and the latter responding that the thing he wished different was that the church was ,baptist4 ,two others1 laymen1 spoke from the floor in a similar strain4 ,the addresses were1 in every sense1 genial and hearty4 ,the house was entirely filled1 and among the audience were forty or fifty of the best white citizens of the city1 all of whom showed interest and some of whom expressed warm sympathy4 ,thus ended a scene in which ,christian feeling and fellowship seemed to have conquered prejudices and differences on all sides1 and the workers from the ,north and from the ,south clasped hands in fraternal regard1 and pledged each other hearty good will4 ,as growing out of this1 and1 perhaps1 a happy finale1 it may be of interest to say that ,dr4 ,taylor very cordially invited ,mr4 ,woodworth to preach in his pulpit the next ,sabbath morning4 ,the offer was accepted1 and the occasion proved one of great pleasure to the speaker1 and1 if judged by the greetings at the close1 not less so to the large audience which listened4 ,at the proper time we shall take occasion to state the further good which ,mr4 ,gregory intends for the 8,christ ,church ,mission0 at ,wilmington4 99 99 99 99 99 ,on the #bgth ult41 ,secretary ,strieby presented the cause of this ,association in ,dr4 ,r4 ,s4 ,storrs' church1 ,brooklyn1 ,n4,y41 and after a full and earnest endorsement by the pastor1 a collection was taken1 amounting to #c1bjj1 one gentleman giving #b1ejj of the amount4 ,on the same ,sabbath1 ,dr4 ,wm4 ,m4 ,taylor1 of the ,broadway ,tabernacle1 ,new ,york1 presented our cause with his usual marked ability1 and his appeal was followed by a contribution of #a1ejj1 an increase of about fifty per cent1 over last year's donations to the same object4 ,in connection with the many good words that have been recently uttered in behalf of ,christian education at the ,south1 it is exceedingly cheering to record such reports of increased interest and liberality4 ,shall we not have many more to follow8 99 99 99 99 99 ,we have alluded repeatedly to the unanimity now prevalent as to the remedy for the radical troubles in the ,south--the education of the ,freedmen4 ,president ,garfield's message sets it forth again in forcible terms4 ,but ever since ,gen4 ,grant's military policy became intolerable to the ,south and a weariness to the ,north1 and was abandoned by ,president ,hayes1 the conviction that moral and not military forces are needed has deepened1 and has found distinct utterance by representative men in all sections of the country4 ,president ,hayes1 in his address to his comrades in arms at ,canton1 ,o41 and ,senator ,brown of ,georgia1 in his speech in the ,senate1 may stand as the exponents of the two sections of the country and the two political parties on that subject1 while ,dr4 ,ruffner1 ,superintendent of ,public ,instruction of ,virginia and ,rev4 ,dr4 ,haygood of the ,m4 ,e4 ,church ,south1 may represent two influential ,states in the ,south1 and two great religious denominations4 ,the popularity of ,judge ,tourgee's book at the ,north1 in which the same thought is fully and eloquently set forth1 may be taken as another evidence of the views held here4 ,the thing that remains1 as ,paul says1 is to 8perform the doing of it40 ,president ,garfield refers not only to the duty of the national and ,state governments1 but also to 8volunteer forces0 in the great work4 ,to these with churches in the ,south must be committed the essential ,christian efforts--which neither the general nor ,state authorities can do4 ,it is all-important that the nation should not content itself with the simple utterances of these noble declarations4 ,good people1 patriotic people should act1 and act promptly and liberally4 ,we exhort our patrons earnestly to step forth1 not spasmodically1 but to inaugurate regular and enlarged measures of assistance4 ,to this end we venture to suggest regular and steadily increasing collections in the churches with favorable seasons in the year for taking them1 and that individuals feel more their personal responsibility in the case and that by liberal gifts in life1 and by remembering the cause in their wills they provide for the pressing work of the age1 and for its progress after they have passed away4 99 99 99 99 99 ,we are indebted to ,dr4 ,l4 ,t4 ,chamberlain1 of ,norwich1 ,conn41 for a copy of a valuable missionary concert exercise prepared for the use of his church and ,sabbath-schools4 ,the exercise is separated into three divisions1 each of which forms a series of responsive readings4 #a4 ,responsive ,scripture readings4 #b4 ,statements of the object of the concert--missions and the world's conversion4 #c4 ,missionary agencies4 ,under this latter division is outlined a series of questions and answers showing the work carried on by the ,american ,home ,missionary ,society1 the ,american ,missionary ,association and the ,american ,board4 ,we commend this missionary concert exercise as suitable for general use1 and eminently fitted to bring the ,sabbath-schools especially into more intimate relations with the work of our great missionary societies4 99 99 99 99 99 ,the ,new ,york1 ,madeira and ,west ,coast of ,africa ,steamship ,company1 which has been recently projected1 is likely to be of much service1 both to commerce and to ,christian missions4 ,the names of the incorporators include those of ,wm4 ,e4 ,dodge1 ,john ,d4 ,fish1 ,joseph ,w4 ,yates1 ,robert ,porterfield1 and other well-known capitalists4 ,these gentlemen have both the means and the experience requisite1 and we have a right to conclude that the company will have its ships ready for service at an early day4 ,the capital stock is #ajj1jjj1 with a proviso allowing an increase of capital to #d1jjj1jjj1 and the company is to continue for twenty years4 ,the ,president1 ,mr4 ,james ,w4 ,yates1 of the firm of ,yates ,porterfield1 has been for years engaged in the ,west ,african ,trade1 and the missionaries of this ,association have frequently passed on their way to and from our ,mendi ,mission in his vessels4 ,the recent impulse that has been given to commerce by the activity in promoting internal improvements1 such as telegraph and railway systems1 from the mouth of the ,gambia to the ,niger1 together with the rapid development of industries1 especially those pertaining to gold mining1 the production of palm oil1 and the culture of coffee1 give promise of large trade between ,new ,york and this portion of ,africa4 ,the number of missionaries1 as well as the number of colonists for ,liberia and elsewhere1 will be sure to multiply with the increase of wealth among the colored people of ,america1 and the improved facilities for reaching the land of their fathers4 ,we regard this enterprise as auspicious1 and one of the many providential events looking toward the early evangelization of the vast tribes of people in ,central ,africa4 ,may ,god speed this new steamship company in ,his own good way6 99 99 99 99 99 ,we have seen the report of the ,fourteenth ,street ,presbyterian ,sabbath-school of this city1 which is at once suggestive and most encouraging as to what may be done in the way of systematic giving4 ,the ,creed of the school1 if heartily accepted1 would secure such results in all our ,sabbath-schools and churches4 ,this ,creed contains the following articles3 ,we believe1 ,i4 ,that every one should help others to the ,gospel4 ,,ii4 ,that every one should help as much as he can4 ,,iii4 ,that every one should find this work for others blessed and helpful to himself4 ,three rules are drawn from this ,creed3 ,i4 ,regularly each ,lord's day4 ,we will give3 ,,ii4 ,consecutively1 according to our ability4 ,,iii4 ,joyfully1 because a privilege and blessing to ourselves4 ,the result has been that in the intermediate and senior departments1 #ca classes made #h1jcg out of a possible #h1jgj offerings2 that is1 there were only #cc failures to keep the whole number of promises made for the year1 though because of vacation1 sickness1 etc41 there were #b1jjd absences from school4 ,in the infant department1 #aa classes brought #c1cee out of #c1djc offerings promised for the year2 that is1 there were only #dh failures4 ,the average attendance in the main room was #bja-c_/d1 of whom #bjj-cg_/dj brought their offerings4 ,the average in the infant department was #he-c_/dj of whom #hc-g_/h brought their offerings4 ,if this same conscientious regularity could be secured in all our churches and ,sabbath-schools1 the work of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 would never suffer for want of funds4 ,what has been done1 can be done4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,prof4 ,,blaikie',s ,,life ,,of ,,livingstone4 ,this volume1 published by ,harper ,bros41 is a book of extraordinary interest4 ,in it two great and good minds meet and yield practical thought and valuable instruction4 ,they also give us a rare combination of wise and spiritual truths1 calculated to fill the soul of the reader with great aspirations for a richer experience in things that pertain to ,christ's kingdom4 ,if the book were read by ,christians everywhere the effect could scarcely be less than a reformation4 ,it is what is needed1 under ,god1 to counteract the flood of secular things that evermore threaten to quench the missionary spirit in the hearts of believers4 ,the consecration1 perseverance1 enterprise1 skill1 heroism1 fidelity and charity of ,livingstone's life are dwelt upon by ,dr4 ,blaikie with such grateful emotions as prompt him to say--8,the author could wish for no higher honor than to have his name associated with that of ,livingstone1 and can desire no greater pleasure than that of conveying to other minds the impressions that have been left on his own40 ,among the many favorable impressions made by this book are those that relate to ,livingstone's superb faith4 ,this was quite discoverable in his early life4 ,talking with his father--8,they agreed that the time would come when rich men and great men would think it an honor to support whole stations of missionaries instead of spending their money on hounds and horses40 ,when he became great and moderately rich1 he illustrated his own faith by his gifts for missions1 and his devotion to the success of the laborers who went forth at his instance4 ,all this flowed naturally from his life-long purpose4 8,i will place no value on anything ,i have or may possess1 except in relation to the kingdom of ,christ40 ,upon this followed his exquisite trust for ,divine protection4 8,if ,god has accepted my service1 then my life is charmed till my work is done40 ,but his faith and works were rounded out by all that was needful to make them complete4 8,it was in front and not in the rear that he expected to find the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire10 and it was unto the ,lord of ,hosts he looked for victory1 and unto ,him his prayer ascended unceasingly3 8,o1 ,almighty ,god1 help and leave not this wicked people to the slave-dealer and ,satan60 ,he not only kept at work answering his own prayer1 but was given to see1 as he thought1 how all things were working together for the wished-for consummation4 8,viewed in relation to my calling10 he says1 8the end of the geographical feat is only the beginning of the enterprise4 ,we are all engaged in very much the same cause--geographers1 astronomers and mechanicians laboring to make men better acquainted with each other--promoters of ,niger expeditions1 soldiers fighting for right against oppression1 and sailors rescuing captives in deadly climes1 as well as missionaries1 are all aiding in hastening on a glorious consummation to all ,god's dealings with our race4 ,in the hope that ,i may yet be honored to do some good to this poor long down-trodden ,africa1 the gentlemen over whom you have the honor to preside1 will1 ,i believe1 cordially join40 ,that the millions who are interested in the negro race may 8cordially join0 in the endeavors promoted by this man for 8poor down-trodden ,africa10 is our most earnest wish1 and1 with this in view1 we heartily welcome and commend ,dr4 ,blaikie's book4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,what ,,the ,,southerners ,,are ,,beginning ,,to ,,think4 ,the following extracts taken from an editorial which appeared in the ,memphis ,daily ,appeal1 ,march #ahth1 contain so much true appreciation of what ought to be done for the ,negro under the circumstances1 that we are glad to give them a place in our columns4 ,we believe they indicate that the ,south is on the eve of a great revolution of sentiment respecting the importance of popular education1 and that if the friends of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 will assist us in pushing forward with our present and proposed work1 the time will come speedily when the recognition of the vital importance of our principles and institutions will be well nigh universal4 ,after commenting upon an article which appeared in the ,north ,american ,review from the pen of ,chief ,justice ,chalmers1 quoting from him the assertion that the negroes' 8right to vote as a race is as fixed and irreversible as their freedom10 and that 8the ballot box must speak the unbiased verdict of all lawful electors10 the editor says3 8,no sane man doubts it2 there is but one thing left for the people of the ,south to do1 and that is to throw themselves into the work of educating the negro1 of lifting him out of the deplorable condition of brutality which slavery left him in1 and elevating him to a plane where he can not only stand alone and see for himself1 but where he can not be reached by the arts of demagogues1 of which1 unfortunately for the country1 there are too many in all parties4 ,in this work1 a man of culture1 like ,judge ,chalmers1 can do a great deal4 ,he can by personal example induce the leading men of his ,state to come to the front as eager defenders of a thorough system of public education4 ,they have1 as most of those of the other ,southern ,states have done1 too long stood aloof and allowed the stranger to do for the negro what they should have done themselves as willing workers1 instead of making mouths at a fate which after fifteen years of effort they find is superior to anything they can put forward against it4 8,thirteen years ago the ,jackson ,clarion warned the people of ,mississippi1 as the leading papers of the ,south everywhere did1 that #8there was but one way out of the wilderness1 and that was as plain as the road to market4 ,it was to recognize the rights the ,federal ,government had bestowed upon the negro2 to treat him kindly1 and to point him the way he should go4' ,this plan was not generally pursued4 ,but it is never too late to mend4 ,we can begin now the work that should have been done in #ahfg4 ,we can rescue the negro from the ignorance that threatens him and us by establishing good public schools--not grudgingly1 as if we were conferring an unwilling charity--but in a broad1 cheerful1 earnest and good neighborly spirit1 as if we were performing a duty--a paramount and most important duty4 ,under ,god this is the only remedy for negro suffrage4 ,it is a waste of time to talk of abridging it4 ,revolutions never go backward4 ,the best answer to that sort of talk is that the ,united ,states never were so strong or so prosperous as they are at this moment1 when public sentiment is in all the ,states demanding the most absolute assertion of democratic life and living4 ,instead of looking back1 we must look forward2 nay1 we must go forward1 and we must take the negro by the hand and make him feel that he is a part of the great column of the people2 that his destiny is interlaced with ours2 that we must not stand apart1 isolated and at enmity1 but go forward1 each doing what he can to strengthen the community at all points1 moral and physical1 to uphold and defend our democratic form of government and perpetuate unsullied the liberties which have survived the chaos of civil war and reconstruction40 99 99 99 99 99 ,we are glad to add to the other testimonials from able and intelligent ,southerners1 a few words from the remarkable ,thanksgiving ,sermon of ,rev4 ,atticus ,g4 ,haygood1 ,d4,d41 ,president of ,emery ,college1 ,oxford1 ,ga43 8,there is a vast mass of illiteracy among us4 ,there is white as well as black illiteracy4 ,there are multiplied thousands who can neither read nor write4 ,they must be taught4 8,let us wake up to our want of educational facilities4 ,our public-school system is painfully inadequate4 ,our colleges and universities are unendowed1 and they struggle against fearful odds in their efforts to do their work4 ,we are one hundred years behind the ,eastern and ,middle ,states4 ,we are also behind many of the new ,states of the ,west4 8,for the negroes themselves4 99 99 99 99 ,much depends on those who1 under ,god1 set them free4 ,by every token this whole nation should undertake the problem of their education4 ,that problem will have to be worked out on the basis of co-operation2 that is1 they must be helped to help themselves4 ,to make their education an absolute gratuity will perpetuate many of the misconceptions and weaknesses of character which now embarrass and hinder their progress4 ,much also depends upon the ,southern white people1 their sympathy1 their justice1 their wise and helpful co-operation4 ,this we should give them1 not reluctantly1 but gladly1 for their good and for the safety of all1 for their elevation and for the glory of ,god40 99 99 99 99 99 ,,benefactions4 ,three ,israelites in ,germany devoted #a1djj1jjj marks to charitable purposes without distinction of

statistics are sometimes thought to be dry4 ,i propose to give some that all will concede to be juicy4 ,in the good old ,massachusetts towns of ,amherst1 ,danvers1 ,lincoln1 ,newton1 ,norfolk1 and ,walpole1 there grew last summer a choice collection of forty thousand apples4 ,these apples were choice not only because of their beauty and flavor1 but also because of their missionary destiny4 ,scorning to waste their precious substance in the cellars1 and attics1 and barns of a region already over-stocked by their orchard companions1 they resolved to put themselves where they would do the most good4 ,so by the aid of willing hands and generous hearts they found their way into eighty good-sized barrels1 a goodly half thousand in each barrel4 ,rail-cars and steamers brought them to the sunny ,south1 and they were soon provided with ample accommodations in one of the basements of ,atlanta ,university4 ,it must be confessed that when the barrels were opened some of the apples had a very green appearance1 as though they had never been on a mission before2 while others of them were blushing violently1 as if greatly agitated by the responsibilities of their new vocation4 ,subsequent acquaintance1 however1 proved that these indications of weakness were wholly upon the surface1 and that1 with the exception of a very few who had been suffering from their long journey1 the new comers were sound to the core and fully prepared for missionary service4 ,this service1 it must be added1 was one which called for nerve on the part of the missionary recruits in proportion to their realizing sense of what they were coming to4 ,many times companies of two hundred each were summoned from the barrels and placed in long picket lines around the edges of a dozen large dining tables1 one standing guard at each plate4 ,but scarcely had this been done when two hundred hungry boys and girls and missionary teachers appeared upon the scene1 and1 after bestowing upon the red and green sentinels many a complacent smile through a long meal of meat and vegetables1 finally attacked them with six thousand 7more or less7 sharp ivory weapons1 and subjected them to that fate which other missionaries are said to have suffered among the ,cannibal ,islands4 ,others1 after being flayed1 drawn and quartered1 were placed in boiling cauldrons1 and their indistinguishable remains were afterwards served up on the same tables in sauce dishes or concealed under the crust of pies4 ,yet these missionaries of ,pomona uttered no complaint1 but met their fate with a calmness that was beautiful to behold4 ,all honor to the forty thousand6 ,what a host it was6 ,if taken to the capital of their native state and strung together1 they would have made a festoon stretching from the

8,sweet day1 so cool1 so calm1 so clear6 ,bridal of earth and sky40 ,these beautiful lines of the sainted ,herbert well describe that bright day in ,march1 a day in which to breathe its delicious air was a luxury2 a day in which our hearts were lifted up in unison with all things in ,nature2 a day long to be remembered as a golden one in the history of this band of ,christ's followers4 ,as we entered the audience room1 going from the clear sunshine without into the subdued light of the sanctuary1 we found it filled to its utmost capacity1 and over all seemed to reign a holy calm4 ,before the altar sat thirty who waited to be made one with this fold1 7twenty-eight by profession1 two by letter74 ,waiting to welcome these and to assist in the sacred rites of the hour were ,rev4 ,messrs4 ,hawley1 ,francis1 and ,beaman1 and ,dr4 ,roy4 ,after the singing of hymns1 reading of ,scripture and prayer1 and the pastor had spoken fitting words of welcome1 admonition and encouragement1 those who had not already received the rite1 one after another1 kneeled before the altar for baptism4 ,the hush of solemn stillness added to the impressiveness of the simple ceremony4 ,then in the freshness of their love the twenty-eight new disciples stood and took the vows of ,god upon them1 while ,christian hearts rejoiced2 and may we not believe that angels bent to hear1 and carry the news to ,heaven of young hearts renouncing the world and pledging allegiance to the ,king of kings8 ,god grant that each one may be found 8faithful unto death40 ,the emblems were blessed1 the bread was broken1 the wine poured1 the invitation given1 8eat ye all of it40 ,interesting and touching reminiscences were indulged in1 often with much tenderness of feeling4 ,the heart-hymn1 8,my faith looks up to ,thee10 every line of which breathes a prayer1 ascended in its wedded tune of ,olivet4 ,the benediction was said2 the service was over4 ,thus we tell you of the first ingathering of sheaves from the harvest not yet fully garnered4 ,silently1 as ,god's greatest blessings always come1 this favor has come to us4 ,seed scattered through many years by loving hands has1 all unnoticed1 been springing up4 ,sowing1 pruning1 digging about1 preparing the ground to receive the watering of ,divine mercy1 has not been in vain4 ,in answer to fervent1 long-continued prayer1 not with boisterous storm or rush of wind1 but gently1 the rich showers of blessing fell1 8,not by might1 nor by power1 but by ,my ,spirit1 saith the ,lord40 ,the awakening began in our day-school4 ,much seriousness seemed manifest during the week of prayer1 when daily after-school meetings were held1 and in connection with the labors of ,mr4 and ,mrs4 ,h4 ,e4 ,brown1 a few weeks later1 in many hearts a settled purpose to serve the ,lord found expression4 ,the church and school1 like twin-born sisters1 go hand in hand4 ,one can not be troubled and the other be unaffected2 one cannot be blessed and the other remain unmoved4 ,the work of grace went on1 making the ,sunday-school and all church services solemn seasons4 ,each night the place of prayer was crowded1 many anxious to know the way of life or avowing their purpose to live for ,christ1 sometimes struggling through days of darkness to find the clear light from the sun of righteousness just beyond4 ,sweet always will be the remembrance of a morning greeting from a bright-faced girl of fourteen1 as she waited at the school-yard gate4 ,her beaming countenance told the story even before the lips1 which quickly uttered the glad words1 8,i have found ,christ at last6 ,he has forgiven my sins60 ,some among those who seemed the stoutest-hearted were the first to submit to ,christ1 while sadly we look upon others1 who remind us of the young man whom ,jesus loved1 who seemed near the kingdom and yet took no step nearer4 ,the joy it gives every new-born soul to welcome one after another to their newly-formed ranks has been beautiful to behold4 ,a hopeful sign is that everyone seemed so ready1 nay1 so eager1 to do some service in showing to others the path in which their own feet had just begun to tread4 ,all love the place of prayer1 and often spend the half-hour recess at noon in a prayer-meeting by themselves in the small library up-stairs4 ,some of tender years are as thoughtful in face and manner as the oldest ones4 ,one in telling of her new-found love said1 8,i felt that ,i loved everybody1 and if my arms had been large enough ,i thought ,i would like to take in the whole world20 and with eyes and voice full of tears1 she begged prayers for her father1 who had said1 when she urged him to come to ,christ1 8,i am too old40 ,just as in days gone by1 many benighted ones outside of us believe that 8gettin' religion0 consists in the seeing of visions and the dreaming of dreams1 and those who have been taught the truth in our ,sunday-school are often interrogated2 8,how far did you go80 8,what did you see in your travels80

not been without fruit4 ,a monster petition was sent to the ,legislature1 praying for prohibition1 and a law was passed prohibiting all traffic in intoxicating drinks within five miles' radius of the court house4 ,the word ,bar1 printed prominently over several places of common resort1 has found at last its legitimate meaning--to bar out all drinkers4 ,everything is very quiet1 and it seems probable that a great crowd of loafers will have to go five miles for their liquor or reform4 ,one man died from over-drinking the last night of open traffic4 ,yet another loud lecture on temperance was given us a few weeks ago4 ,an old colored man1 going home late ,saturday night1 intoxicated1 fell about eight feet into a gully and broke his neck4 ,the effect of the new law upon the colored people has proved very salutary4 ,knowing that this people have little opportunity for finding out the news1 ,i have adopted the plan of giving a brief resum1 such as will afford them some idea of the world's progress in all the great reforms of the day1 at the opening of our ,sabbath evening service4 ,it works well1 if intense eagerness in listening is a fair indication4 ,my first impression of this people1--,sabbath1 ,january #b;d--was that a very large infusion of white blood and brains was represented in my audience1 and it was very hard to think that most of them had been slaves4 ,the next was one of respect for my predecessors1 as ,i noted their readiness and precision in responsive reading2 though ,i afterwards saw that many of the older ones did not read--could not1 as it proved4 ,you may imagine with what delight some of these listened to ,president ,garfield's inaugural address as ,i read it1 when it came1 to such as happened to be within easy reach4 ,our work here

,of course1 we were soon obliged to have special meetings1 and have just closed a session of #ag nights' consecutive preaching4 ,the ,holy ,spirit has been working in many hearts4 ,the church has been greatly revived4 ,all the ,sunday-school children--not already members--have been forward for prayer1 and many others in the community1 quite a number converted1 and more awakened who will probably go to the ,baptists1 who started a 8revival0 the second week of our meeting and are still continuing with great excitement1 and ,i hope real good results4 ,not a small part of our work is to stir up the other churches1 for which let us thank ,god and take courage4 ,last ,sabbath we received ten of the first fruits on profession of their faith in ,jesus4 ,nearly every one of our ,sabbath-school now

trip in ,europe1 and we were therefore soon at home1 surrounded by the most congenial society4 ,on the twenty-first we sighted the bold headlands of ,cape ,clear1 and in the evening we were reading the latest news from ,london4 ,having arrived safely in ,liverpool1 and ,mr4 and ,mrs4 ,kemp1 colored missionaries for the ,mendi ,mission1 reaching the same place a few days later1 we were obliged to wait there a week for an ,african steamer2 but the time was well employed in some preliminary business in ,london and elsewhere1 with reference to the proposed new mission in the ,nile basin4 ,we had the pleasure of a short but interesting visit with ,rev4 ,o4 ,h4 ,white1 ,d4,d41 the earnest and efficient secretary of the ,freedman's ,missions ,aid ,society1 who has done so much to interest our ,english and ,scotch friends in the work of the ,american ,missionary ,association4 ,we also called on ,robert ,arthington1 ,esq41 of ,leeds1 whose munificent generosity has made possible the opening of the new mission near the head-waters of the ,nile1 which is to be distinguished by his name4 ,he received us very kindly1 and with outspread map before us1 we spent a pleasant afternoon together1 discussing plans and hopes for the opening of the work next fall1 which now seems to promise so well4 ,on ,saturday1 ,march #eth1 we embarked on board the steamship 8,mayumba10 for ,africa1 and our voyage has been a delightful one ever since4 ,the same steamer had on board two hundred tons of gunpowder for the slaughter of the natives4 ,like the vessel that carried out rum and missionaries to ,turkey1 this was carrying powder to kill the ,africans1 while we were going for their peace and healing4 ,yet we would rather a thousand times go with the powder than with the rum2 for the former1 horrid as is the art of war1 has in the hands of the ,english made a way in the wilderness for the heralds of the ,cross1 while the latter has been and always will be an unmitigated curse4 ,but the cloud is beginning to lift4 ,we believe that there is a bright and cheering history of ,african missions yet to be written4 ,the five millions of reserve force1 now drilling in ,america for the final victory1 are yet to be called out1 and they will come to the rescue4 ,they are already on the move4 ,these educated freemen have developed already many of the proper qualifications for the work4 ,we must expect failures and disappointments at first from those so recently in the degradation of slavery1 but we believe theirs is the work1 and they will yet do it1 and do it grandly1 too4 ,with a holy enthusiasm they are coming by degrees more fully to appreciate the fact that ,africa is their true field of labor--even as this excellent colored brother and his wife1 who are going out with me1 say they would rather die for their degraded brethren in ,africa1 than live in ,christian ,america4 ,as1 therefore1 we approach the shores of ,africa1 to enlarge and carry forward this work1 ,i feel that we are now moving in the line of ,god's appointment1 and that success must ultimately crown our efforts4 ,in this very steamer are those going out in ,her ,majesty's service to conquer the rebellious

difficulties1 the heavy burdens of his work2 a root of bitterness which he has tried in vain to remove1 now springing up to trouble him2 finances going all awry2 sad cases calling for discipline1--the duty imperative1 and the church1 though stung to the quick with a sense of its dishonor1 too timid to come up to its task4 ,of course1 such things ought not to go into the papers nor any other but the good and glad things4 ,we can make others sharers of our joys1 but we shrink from asking them to bear1 with us1 our pains4 8,well1 that is all right10 ,i say to myself1 and so it is4 ,and yet those who sustain a missionary work have a right to see it on all sides4 ,god be thanked that ,i have had so much to report that was cheery1 stimulating1 hopeful2 so little that was otherwise4 ,i wonder if our friends and helpers--readers of the ,missionary--think that1 like the harvest fields of ,california1 so our ,gospel work is bathed in perpetual sunshine8 or do they know that here1 too1 we have our darkened skies1 our tempests untimely1 our frosts premature8 8,well1 it won't hurt them if they don't see the shady side10 ,i say to myself again4 8,yes1 but am ,i truthful in the matter80 ,i reply1 and so even conscience puts me up to make a gentle growl4 ,there is nothing very bad to growl about2 no more probably than ,i need2 far less than ,i deserve2 but there is something1 almost always1 on which if one allowed himself to brood1 he could soon get up steam to scold hard4 ,and ,i am not thinking just here of the greater trials of our work1 as when some riotous outburst of anti-,chinese prejudice sends these people at sunset to their several retreats1 and seems1 for the time1 to knock our schools prostrate2 nor of the sore trials from false brethren among our ,chinese ,christians--starting discords in the little flocks--or by their vile conduct bringing reproach on the ,gospel that they have proclaimed4 ,those things1 ,i am grateful to say1 belong to years past2 and1 besides1 we don't growl at the great trials--it is the comparatively little things that put us in a scolding mood4 ,for instance3 here is a teacher who has done well--been faithful1 skilful and successful2 has won the intense affection--almost the reverence of her pupils4 ,but her heart is young1 and somebody else's heart is young also1 and these two have grown together1 till1 in an hour of general congratulation1 their hands are joined1 and they start off upon life's journey no longer twain4 ,then the same zeal1 the same concentration of interest and effort which made her so successful a teacher1 is developed touching home cares and a husband's comfort2 and weeks grow to months and months to years1 and her face is not seen1 even for an hour1 in the school-room where she served so well4 ,she did not mean it so to be2 but so it was1 and the shrewd heathen ,chinese1 that was almost persuaded in view of her zeal and self-denial to become a ,christian1 thinks now that he sees through it all3 8,good pay1 good teach2 no pay1 no teach40 ,here is another teacher who took up the work with zeal and loved it--so she said and so she thought2 better and better the longer she wrought4 ,but she is cumbered with much serving all day long1 and brings a weak flesh1 and1 consequently1 a not very willing spirit to her evening's service at the mission4 ,the pupils note it4 ,it is indeed unmistakable1 for the head nods and the eyes close1 time and again1 before the last school hour is half expired4 ,they don't like to burden her1 and one by one they drop out of the school4 ,the ,superintendent intervenes as gently as he can2 but he finds that it is very difficult to dismiss a teacher and not lose a friend4 ,here is a field where the opportunity is evidently large1 and the

reap them4 ,it is getting past the middle of your fiscal year4 ,we have tried hard to make one dollar do the work of two1 and yet the appropriation is well nigh exhausted4 ,contributions come in slowly4 ,the churches1 you fancy1 have forgotten this work2 or1 possibly they dare not propose it among their charities4 ,you sally forth1 subscription book in hand4 ,you take the easy ones first1 the

was a large one4 ,upon a motion to adopt the ,charter1 the opposition 7to the so-called 8restriction0 policy7 at once offered an amendment1 to postpone the whole matter of incorporation for a few weeks4 ,a lively and somewhat lengthy discussion followed1 which resulted in the loss of the amendment and the adoption of the ,charter by a large majority4 ,the debate was renewed over the obnoxious

the girls as to which shall sew best and fastest1 so their tongues run fast until ,i silence them with a proposal to read or tell a story4 ,they are deeply interested in #8,pilgrim's ,progress1' and beside we are having ten minute talks on ,physiology1 and the care of the body4 ,the immorality among the women and young girls is something to make one's heart ache1 and my daily prayer is that ,i may do something to turn them to better1 purer lives4 8,when a garment is finished1 the maker buys it for a trifling sum1 within the means of the poorest4 ,my other school meets ,thursdays1 in a school-house1 and is conducted on nearly the same plan4 8,pure hearted ,northern girls1 with homes where every comfort and luxury abound1 you cannot picture to yourselves the poverty and degradation of some of these homes where ,i go daily4 ,perhaps you read ,dickens and ,thackeray with moist eyes1 and then1 laying aside the book1 comfort yourselves with the thought1 #8,well1 after all there is no ,nancy or ,bill ,sykes4 ,there was never any one so miserable as #8little ,nell' or #8poor ,jo2' never any such frightful creature as one of these great hearts has wept over and the other has laughed over4' ,but believe me1 there are just such2 no novelist's pen has ever colored too highly possible poverty and degradation4 ,what would you say1 or rather what would you do1 were you to enter a cabin where ,i have been many times8 ,the first time ,i ever saw ---- she was standing in her door-way on a snowy1 cold day1 her only article of clothing a calico wrapper4 ,within1 the one room was as cheerless as a place well could be4 ,in one corner stood a bedstead with only a dirty husk bed on it1 in another1 a table2 there were two chairs1 neither boasting a seat2 on the table were a few broken dishes1 and this list enumerates all there was in the room1 absolutely all4 ,this woman lives with a man many years older than she2 he is a brute1 and in his drunken passions beats her2 she with one paralyzed and utterly powerless arm can do nothing to defend herself4 ,perhaps it is no wonder if she too1 drinks at times1 to forget her misery1 yet no amount of persuasion or entreaty will induce her to separate from this man4 8,how can other girls and women be saved8 ,certainly not by the efforts of one woman working single-handed among them1 not by the efforts of many such1 perhaps2 yet possibly by the earnest prayers of pure hearts1 that send help while they still pray40 ,receipts of the ,association from ,march #a to ,march #bh1 #ahha3 ,from ,auxiliaries #cgg4fc ,donations

well1 my darling1 you may do as you please10 she said1 cheerily2 8but now run out into the sunshine1 for ,i shall be very busy this morning and you must amuse yourself40 ,that did not seem a hard thing to the little girl1 as she wanted to explore the new home into which she had come for the first time the night before4 ,how strange everything looked2 the blue mountains in the distance1 the cotton fields where women were picking the white balls into baskets1 the little log cabins with their queer mud chimneys1 and the mules shaking their long ears as they drew the great wagons piled high with snowy cotton bales along the road to town4 ,from the open window of the great brick building opposite she could hear the hum of voices1 for this was a colored college1 and ,claudie's uncle was one of its ,professors4 ,her mamma had gone to ,heaven a little time before1 and this was why she was playing alone in the ,southern sunshine at ,auntie ,faith's home4 ,but why was she alone8 ,out under the cedar trees were ,pink and ,chloe and little ,midge 8playing supper0 with persimmons and chincapins1 and breaking out now and then into song as naturally as the mocking-birds themselves4 ,they had viewed ,claudie from afar with round1 admiring eyes1 reserved the biggest chincapins for her use1 and ,pink had even ventured to say 8,howdy80 but the little stranger stood aloof4 ,not a cross word or a naughty one had any of the children spoken1 and they looked as clean and neat as ,claudie herself would have looked had she been eating very ripe persimmons as freely as they4 ,pink's black eyes were as full of fun and sparkle as ,claudie's blue ones1 and her face as bright1 and yet playing with these children was the very thing ,claudie had said she could never1 never do6 ,i really don't like to tell you her reason1 she would be so ashamed of it now4 ,it was just because their merry little faces were colored black instead of white6 ,now ,claudie would never have been so foolish if she had not heard some grown-up people talking after this fashion just before she left the ,north3 8,i really don't see how dear ,mrs4 ,faith1 with her refined tastes1 can live among the blacks10 said one4 8,think of eating at the same table1 and actually touching them6 ,it fairly makes me shiver10 echoed another1 who sat with one arm around a big ,newfoundland dog while she fed him with candy4 ,and after ,mrs4 ,faith1 with tears in her eyes1 had told the story of her work and described her love and respect for her colored friends1 another lady smilingly said3 8,i have enjoyed your talk so much1 ,mrs4 ,faith2 but ,i don't envy you in the least4 ,i know ,i couldn't endure the negroes40 ,claudie was not old enough to understand that people who talk in this way are not the best or the wisest or the most refined people1 and so their words influenced her4 ,she was a very sociable little body1 however1 and playing alone soon grew dull4 ,it was hot on the veranda1 and1 too1 indeed1 that shady nook under the cedars seemed the only cool spot in the yard just then1 and how cunning little ,midge did look6 8,no second-class on board the train1 ,no difference in the fare10 piped ,pink1 gleefully1 as she set her table with gouber shells for plates4 ,claudie started4 ,why1 ,auntie sung that song once1 and she said it meant that ,jesus and the angels loved black people just as well as white ones1 and thought them quite as beautiful4 ,how funny to forget that6 ,if the little angels would be willing to play with colored children of course she could1 and then those persimmons were vanishing so fast6 ,the next minute a little white-robed maiden was flying through the rose-garden toward the cedars4 8,oh1 ,pink60 she cried1 breathlessly1 8,i never ate a persimmon in all my life40 8,we is saving some for you10 answered ,pink1 as graciously as if her polite advances had been received at first1 8an' ,chloe got some #8simmon bread an' ,midge brought some goubers40 ,what these new delights were ,claudie had no idea1 and the children's tongues ran faster than ever as they explained4 ,after the feast came an exploring trip1 and under ,pink's guidance the yard and the adjoining field proved a perfect storehouse of treasures4 8',clare1 ,i done forgot10 she cried1 suddenly producing a long necklace of chincapins1 and presenting it shyly to ,claudie2 8,i made it on purpose for you40 8,oh1 you splendid ,pink60 cried ,claudie2 8you are the very nicest little girl ,i know60 and throwing her arms around her new friend's neck she kissed her rapturously4 ,then of course they must play house1 with ,claudie as the well-dressed mamma1 and then came school and church and everything else they could think of1 till at last1 tired out with play1 they threw themselves down in the shade to tell stories4 8,i wonder if ,heaven is over yonder by the mountains10 said ,claudie1 dreamily2 8my mamma is in ,heaven1 and she has a beautiful white robe1 and a golden crown and a harp60 8,an' my mamma is in ,hebben1 too1 an' she wears a collarette10 chimed in ,chloe with much importance2 8but ,hebben isn't on the mountains2 it's in ,england60 ,claudie had just opened her mouth to dispute this remarkable statement1 when ,pink took up the argument3 8,chloe doesn't know nuffin 'bout it10 she laughed4 8,she just thinks that 'cause cousin ,emma went to ,england in a big ship with a heap of colored people to sing1 an' she said ev'rybody was so good it seemed just like ,heaven1 and nobody seemed to notice that they weren't as white as anybody1 an' she saw the queen1 an' she went to dinner with white folks in splendid big houses1 an' a white gen'leman took her out to dinner hisself1 an' treated her 'zactly like a white lady2 an' she says1 #8'magine me in ,washington an' ,gene'l ,sherman taking me out to dinner6'0 ,pink stopped breathless4 8,but she did say it were sure 'nuff ,hebben dere6 ,you didn't tell it all1 ,pink ,symond10 persisted ,chloe1 indignantly4 8,yes10 said ,pink1 more soberly1 8she did say that when they came home an' she had to ride in smoking cars1 an' couldn't go to table with white folks at hotels1 an' was treated just like we all are1 she thought ,england must be ,heaven sure enough1 'cause everybody says this is the freest country outside of ,heaven60 ,just then this theological discussion was ended by the sound of the dinner-bells1 and ,pink and ,claudie1 with arms lovingly around each other1 walked slowly toward the house4 8,of such is the kingdom of ,heaven10 murmured ,uncle ,faith as he watched them from his study window1 and the tired look on his face faded away and something came instead that made ,claudie say wonderingly-- 8,oh1 ,uncle ,faith1 you look like--like the apostle ,john60 8,i think ,pink is perfectly beautiful1 ,auntie10 whispered ,claudie at her bedtime talk that night1 8and ,i do wish those ladies at home could see her4 ,you know1 ,auntie0--the fair face flushing--8,i was so ignorant 'bout the colored people this morning1 and ,i didn't know any better1 and ,i s'pose that's just the way with those ladies4 ,isn't there some way we could tell them1 ,auntie1 that the colored people
