,,secretary4 ,it gives us pleasure to announce that in following out the arrangements fore-shadowed in the ,may 8,missionary10 the ,executive ,committee of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 has made choice of ,miss ,d4 ,e4 ,emerson as ,secretary of its ,bureau of ,woman's ,work4 ,miss ,emerson is well known in the mission fields of the ,association1 having been a teacher1 a lady missionary and also at the ,new ,york ,office doing service in connection with the correspondence for the ,southern work4 ,in the latter position1 covering a period of several years1 she has had occasion to visit localities occupied by our lady missionaries1 and in these and many other ways has gained a very extensive knowledge of the wants and the methods of help needful for the elevation of the colored people4 ,her ability for her new position has already been tested1 and the ,association has great confidence in her capacity to meet the requirements of all interested in the great work that lies before her4 ,correspondence relating to the ,bureau should be addressed to ,miss ,d4 ,e4 ,emerson1 at the office of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a41 #ef ,reade ,st41 ,new ,york4 ,,methods ,,of ,,work4 ,our ,bureau inaugurates no new woman's missionary society4 ,it is simply a plan for giving more efficiency to the work already in hand4 ,we leave the mode of co-operation on the part of the ladies of the ,north entirely to themselves1 and we can think of no better plan for such co-operation than that given on the next page in the letter of ,miss ,m4 ,e4 ,smith of ,gorham1 ,me41 which describes the methods in use the past year in that ,state4 ,neither are the means for promoting the objects of our ,bureau new2 they are based on twenty years' experience and extend to all the branches of home1 school and church life4 ,we can aid directly in the elevation of women and children through the varied work of the ladies engaged in our different mission fields4 ,our method of giving information to the ,christian women of the ,north will be not only by correspondence through the ,secretary of the ,bureau1 but also by direct information from the lady missionaries and teachers1 who will attend the meetings of ladies at the conferences1 associations1 and1 as far as practicable1 local societies in connection with the churches4 ,,method ,,of ,,co-,,operation4 ,,from ,,miss ,,mary ,e4 ,,smith1 ,,maine4 ,in answer to your inquiry as to the mode of collecting1 ,i would say that we have no organization4 ,the ladies talked the matter over and decided that as there are so many organizations already as to be almost bewildering1 we would carry on this work with as little 8red tape0 as possible4 ,at each annual conference a meeting of all ladies interested is held1 a report read of the amount collected the past year and a committee of three chosen to carry on the work for the following year4 ,this committee appoints a collector for each conference1 and each conference collector engages a collector in each church in her conference4 ,the collectors of the several churches report progress and send money obtained to the conference collector1 and she forwards it to the chairman of the ,state ,committee1 who keeps the bank account and forwards the money in due time to the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 ,by so simple an arrangement we also save in expense4 ,with the exception of a very slight amount for printing of circulars for distribution through the ,states1 the only expense is that of postage1 etc41 which being divided among so many is borne by the several collectors and does not take from the sum collected4 ,so far the working of our plan has been1 ,i think1 as successful as we could reasonably expect4 ,,letters ,,of ,,sympathy4 ,,from ,,mrs4 ,,henry ,l4 ,,chase1 ,,iowa4 ,it is with great satisfaction that ,i learn that a 8,bureau of ,woman's ,work0 has been organized in connection with the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 ,it seems to me that such an organization is not merely a valuable help but a manifest necessity in the effective prosecution of 8,woman's ,work for ,woman0 in the ,south--a work which lies upon the hearts of very many of the ,christian women of the ,north and which ought to lie upon the consciences of all4 ,a very limited experience teaches that in every kind of benevolent work information is the root from which interest and action grow4 ,probably in no other way can the facts which will quicken the interest of the ladies of our churches in work among the ,freedpeople be so thoroughly and influentially presented as by means of this ,bureau4 ,specific objects of effort1 concerning which details may be furnished1 will often win the practical attention of those who are comparatively indifferent to the idea of general needs4 ,and the sanction of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 being implied in any appeals made thorough the ,bureau for definite objects1 will give assurance that our gifts and our labors are to be applied in the wisest way and where the need is most urgent4 ,but perhaps nothing accomplished by this organization will be more gratefully appreciated or more productive of the desired results than the visits of missionaries to the churches which support them1 and their statements by word of mouth in regard to the appalling needs and encouraging successes in their various fields4 ,this new branch of work has my warmest good wishes and my earnest prayers for its fullest success4 ,,brief ,,responses4 ,miss ,a4 ,w4 ,johnson of ,north ,brookfield1 ,mass41 writes3 ,i am very glad that a 8,bureau of ,woman's ,work0 has been organized1 and believe it will open up new avenues for work among our ladies4 ,i respond at once1 hoping ,i can do something to interest them in this direction4 ,rev4 ,s4 ,e4 ,lathrop of ,macon1 ,ga41 writes3 ,i rejoice in the new 8,bureau of ,woman's ,work40 ,it is a necessary and hopeful acquisition4 ,,bureau ,,represented ,,in ,,ohio4 ,,at the ,ohio ,state ,association which convened at ,akron1 ,may #h1 ,dist4 ,sec4 ,pike in his address set forth the plans of our ,bureau of ,woman's ,work1 referring especially to the methods proposed for bringing the condition of the colored people more fully before the ,christian women of the ,north4 ,he was accompanied by ,miss ,rose ,m4 ,kinney1 who had just returned from her field of labor at ,mc,intosh1 ,liberty ,county1 ,ga41 and who1 in behalf of our ,bureau of ,woman's ,work1 gave an interesting account of her mission services1 which had included that of organizing a ,woman's ,missionary ,society among the colored women4 ,miss ,kinney also addressed the ,woman's meeting held during the sessions of the ,association4 ,arrangements have been made1 as far as practicable1 with other ,states for a like presentation of the varied work carried on by this ,association4 99 99 99 99 99 ,in the next and future numbers of the ,,missionary1 the details of the 8,bureau of ,woman's ,work0 will appear in a separate department under the above heading4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,lord',s ,,blessed ,,ones4--,a recent visitor to the ,teachers' ,home1 ,storrs ,school1 ,atlanta1 writes that on his arrival1 about nine in the evening1 he was met by the lady teachers1 who were returning1 two by two1 from attending cottage prayer meetings in the parish1 of which there had been six that night4 8,coming in10 he says1 8from such work in the lowly homes of a despised people1 cheerful and delighted with the meetings1 they made a profound impression upon me as the ,lord's blessed ones4 ,if ,he hasn't got any mansions up there quite worthy of them ,he'll go to work and fix up some especially for their use40 ,,the readers of the ,,missionary are not ignorant of the benefactions of ,mr4 ,j4 ,j4 ,h4 ,gregory1 of ,marblehead1 ,mass41 to this ,association4 ,the following extract from a ,wilmington paper indicates the appreciation in which he is held not only by the colored people1 but also by leading citizens ,south4 8,the reception of ,mr4 ,gregory took place in the ,mayor's office in the ,city ,hall yesterday at noon4 ,there was quite a large attendance of our prominent citizens1 including a few colored men1 all of whom gave evidence of the esteem entertained for the distinguished visitor and their pleasure at the opportunity thus afforded them of forming the acquaintance of one who has devoted so much of his fortune to the advancement of the educational facilities and interests of ,wilmington4 ,mr4 ,gregory was introduced to those present by ,mayor ,hall in a few brief and appropriate remarks1 which were responded to by ,mr4 ,g4 in fitting terms4 ,short speeches were also delivered by ,rev4 ,drs4 ,taylor and ,wilson1 in the order named1 and at the conclusion of their remarks1 ,mayor ,hall again spoke1 and at more length4 ,the meeting was a very pleasant one1 and we have reason to believe that ,mr4 ,gregory was much pleased at the heartiness of his reception40 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,trustees of the ,john ,f4 ,slater ,educational ,fund met in ,new ,york ,april #be and #bf4 ,it was voted to appropriate #bj1jjj during the coming year to such schools as are best fitted to help young colored people to become useful to their race1 preference being given to those institutions which furnish industrial education4 ,over seventy institutions have already reported to ,rev4 ,dr4 ,a4 ,g4 ,haygood1 the ,secretary4 ,it is not conclusive from the reports that have reached us that the sum named above is the entire amount that will be applied the coming year for educational purposes1 or that the income of the fund will be principally used for industrial education4 ,we believe the plans of the ,trustees are as broad as the necessities of the colored people for education in every department4 ,the meeting of the ,board was fully attended1 and the place made vacant by the death of ,wm4 ,e4 ,dodge was filled by the election of his son4 ,we commend the ,trustees for their careful and conscientious endeavors to provide for the uplifting of the colored people and the welfare of the nation4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the average attendance at the #cj conventions of the ,co-operative ,societies in ,connecticut was #acf4 ,the number of churches represented was #bcj1 of the #big in the ,state4 ,the average attendance of similar meetings in #ahgb was #ajd4 ,on the whole the recent meetings were of marked interest1 and of much encouragement to the missionary work done by ,congregationalists4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,our ,,finances4--,during the seven months of the fiscal year closing ,april #cj1 our receipts from collections and donations have amounted to #aji1bge4gc4 ,the collections and donations for the same months last year were #ach1jid4ce1 a decrease of #bh1hah4fb4 ,the legacies for these months last year were #bc1ddg4ha1 while for this year they have been #db1aba4ah1 an increase of #ah1fgc4cg4 ,the total receipts thus far this year in collections1 donations and legacies have been #aea1cif4ia against #afa1edb4af for the same period last year1 a decrease of #aj1ade4be4 ,we earnestly urge the friends of this ,association to study these figures4 ,our last annual meeting1 in view of the pressing work before us1 recommended the increase of our receipts #be per cent4 for the present fiscal year4 ,the added expenses of our ,indian work and the pressing calls for enlargement of our school and church work ,south1 make this increase imperative--and especially as the openings before us in these lines of effort are exceedingly auspicious and encouraging4 ,if the increase named is received1 we can go forward2 if not1 we must leave undone what ought to be done4 ,under these circumstances1 we ask individual donors whom ,god hath blessed with the means and the heart to help1 to give special attention to the facts we present1 and we also respectfully request pastors to bring before their people our financial necessities1 so that during the next five months we may be able to go forward without debt or diminution of work4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,,church ,,book1 ,hymns and ,tunes1 for the ,uses of ,christian ,worship1 prepared by ,leonard ,woolsey ,bacon4 ,new ,york3 ,d4 ,appleton ,co4 ,several novelties are presented by this book4 ,the more prominent of these are 7#a7 the typographical arrangement1 which allows the hymns to go in without the usual limitations of space1 7#b7 the number of hymns1 which is less than half that usually found in books of the kind1 7#c7 a combination of the standard tunes with the best of the ,english lyrical compositions4 ,we believe there is common sense in ,dr4 ,bacon's idea that the church will be better served with a smaller number of the choicest hymns4 ,as both the standard and 7so called7 classical tunes are selected with excellent judgment1 we see no reason why the ,church ,book may not prove a valuable addition to the hymn-and-tune-ology of the day4 ,the typography and binding of the book are of the best4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,general ,,liturgy ,,and ,,book ,,of ,,common ,,prayer1 prepared by ,prof4 ,hopkins1 is the title of an attractive volume of #acg pages1 published by ,a4 ,s4 ,barnes ,co4 ,a feature of especial interest is the 8,table for ,scripture ,readings for ,divine ,service on every ,lord's ,day throughout the year10 embracing a period of two years4 ,the volume is tastefully prepared and printed in red and black1 thus assisting the eye in selecting the different parts of the service4 ,we believe it will be found helpful in the pulpit1 in families and in mission work at home and abroad4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,home ,missionary for ,may appears with new cover and an addition of eight pages1 four of which are devoted to advertisements4 ,the reading matter1 embraces a wide range of discussion on the different interests of home missionary work1 and as usual was prepared especially for this excellent organ of the ,home ,missionary ,society4 ,it gives evidence of an advance along the line1 and will be welcome in its approved appearance among its numerous readers4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,the ,church ,building ,quarterly1 ,no4 #b1 is out1 and gives to its readers a hundred pages of excellent reading relating to the interests of

of value4 ,cuts and specifications for three varieties of parsonages are also given4 ,the ,quarterly is attractive and we congratulate the brethren who manage the affairs of the ,society on their enterprise and success4 99 99 99 99 99 ,a ,,valuable ,,book ,,on ,,indian ,,missions4 ,,indian ,,missions is a volume of #bgj pages1 published by the ,am4 ,s4 ,s4 ,union1 from the pen of ,rev4 ,myron ,eells1 missionary of the ,a4 ,m4 ,a4 among the ,indians in ,washington ,territory4 ,mr4 ,eells is the son of a missionary1 who gave himself to the work on the ,pacific ,coast in #ahch4 ,he grew up in that country1 and is perhaps as well qualified as any man living to write the history and results of the work of different benevolent societies among the ,indian tribes of that section4 ,in the book before us he gives in order the history of the early missions of the ,methodist ,episcopal ,church and those of the ,american ,board1 making mention of the development of the work in ten localities among as many different tribes4 ,the progress of civilizing agencies is recorded with a fidelity and minuteness that adds much to the value of the volume4 ,it appears that most of the missionaries believed that the ,bible and the plow should go hand in hand1 and that through their influence the ,indians were stimulated to cultivate lands1 build houses1 abandon polygamy1 become temperate1 connect themselves with churches1 and place their children in schools4 ,the author expresses the fear that his statistics relating to such matters may be considered too large1 but affirms that they have been taken from official reports4 ,he comforts himself1 also1 in the words of another1 to the effect that 8if one-fourth of all that is reported has been accomplished1 a great work has been done40 ,part ,,ii4 of ,mr4 ,eells' book treats of the reflex influence of the mission upon the whites4 ,his claims are no less interesting than surprising4 ,he says3 8,indian missions brought the first white woman overland to ,oregon1 opened the first emigrant wagon road to the ,columbia ,river1 furnished ,oregon with the first ,united ,states officer1 gave the first governor to the ,territory1 established the first permanent ,american settlement here1 so that without this aid the ,provisional ,government would1 without doubt1 never have been organized1 brought the first ,american cattle to the ,willamette ,valley1 and saved the country1 or1 at least1 an important portion of it1 to the ,united ,states40 ,indeed1 when he tells the story of ,dr4 ,whitman's winter journey to ,washington1 pursuant to the vote of the missionaries1 8to make a desperate effort to save the country to the ,united ,states10 he is not only graphic but eloquent4 ,his description of the hardships of the winter's campaign and of the grand success of the return journey with scores of emigrants1 who illustrated beyond question that women and wagons could cross the mountains1 and that missionaries at least had the enterprise needful to provide the agency for establishing a provisional government at the focal point in the history of our western territories1 is full of interest4 ,it is impossible1 however1 in our limited space1 even to allude to all the topics touched upon4 ,we must ask our readers to purchase the volume4 ,it is well suited for ,sabbath-school libraries1 and will be welcomed by good men everywhere who love mission work4 ,as a testimony in behalf of the far-reaching influences of missionary endeavors1 it is of rare excellence4 ,we hope its circulation will be swift and extensive4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,benefactions4 ,hon4 ,peter ,cooper left by will #ajj1jjj to the ,cooper ,institute1 ,new ,york4 ,senator ,joseph ,e4 ,brown1 of ,atlanta1 has donated #ej1jjj in

,missionary ,association1 and its principal professorship has been partially endowed by ,mrs4 ,stone4 ,from this institution went forth a few years since1 a young man 7,rev4 ,a4 ,j4 ,henry7 of unmixed ,african blood1 who took as his field of labor a benighted county in ,virginia4 ,as the result of his patient1 self-denying toil1 several churches and schools have been established1 and a new character has been given to the whole community4 ,in proof of this1 ,i am permitted to quote the following letter1 voluntarily sent by the ,prosecuting ,attorney of the county to ,mr4 ,henry3 8,,amelia ,,court ,,house1 ,va41 ,jan4 #ca1 #ahhc4 ,,dear ,,sir3 ,there has been such a marked improvement in the conduct1 character1 morals and intelligence of the colored population of this county1 and crime has diminished to such an extent with the past several years1 that it is natural that an observing man should at once consider the cause or reason for such a changed state of affairs4 ,in doing so1 ,i am at once constrained to believe and to attribute it to your untiring zeal in the laudable effort to do good to that race whose training has been so long neglected4 ,your boldness in condemning the wrong and asserting and approving the right1 has not only impressed the colored people and influenced their conduct in the right direction1 but it has at the same time won for you the confidence and esteem of all the thinking portion of the white race who are interested in good government1 and a well-ordered and law-abiding community4 ,it is not surprising to thinking men that an immense amount of crime should have been the result of liberating the vast number of colored people of the ,south1 and throwing them suddenly upon their own resources1 with their wants unprovided for and with no training1 when it had not been their habit to think or provide for themselves4 ,consequently1 the sad result was that crime was prevalent throughout this whole ,southern country4 ,it therefore became sensible men to undertake to provide a remedy2 and the remedy is1 to educate and ,christianize the race2 and ,i am glad--indeed1 happy--to be able to say that you have contributed your full share toward bringing about that happy result1 for which this community ought to be profoundly grateful4 8,now1 for a moment1 let us contrast the present state of things with the past1 which is vivid in our recollection because of its sadness4 ,i qualified as ,prosecuting ,attorney for this county at the ,april ,term of the ,county ,court #ahgj1 and have held that office 7with the exception of one term of four years7 from that time to the present4 ,it was no uncommon thing--indeed it was a common thing--to prosecute from two to four cases of felony at every term of the court1 and ,i have prosecuted as many as seven felonies at one term of our ,circuit ,court1 and the jail was full or crowded with those awaiting trial4 ,but for the last four or five years crime has gradually diminished1 until now it is a rare occurrence that we have a prisoner in jail awaiting trial or a felony to prosecute2 and the jail is nearly all the time without an inmate4 ,the present state of things is so different that it is a subject of remark4 ,may ,he who directeth all things spare you long in the good work in which you have accomplished so much4 ,very respectfully and truly your friend1 ,t4 ,k4 ,,weisiger40 ,this statement speaks loudly1 not only as regards the particular case mentioned1 but as regards the system which we are pursuing to elevate the colored people4 ,mr4 ,henry1 during his studies in ,howard ,university1 was aided by funds contributed in ,great ,britain for the assistance of needy colored students1 and it will be cheering to those benefactors to hear of the good which is being accomplished by this beneficiary4 ,will not other benefactors come to our help by furnishing other endowments and scholarships8 99 99 99 99 99 ,,revival ,,work ,,at ,,fisk

,young ,men's ,christian ,association passed1 and the work of holding nightly prayer meetings was taken in hand by the students4 ,several conversions resulted4 ,after the new year had set in and ,i had returned from my ,northern trip1 ,i felt that the time had come for direct effort for the conversion of the students4 ,i1 therefore1 directed my preaching to that end and held nightly meetings for inquirers4 ,as a result two or three of the students were converted4 ,at length1 being convinced that ,i could do little more1 ,i made no appointment for other meetings4 ,at this point the young men in ,livingstone ,hall came forward and offered to carry on the meetings in their own way4 ,i was glad to give them the opportunity to go forward4 ,this they did1 visiting from room to room and inviting the unconverted out4 ,the result was that there was a large increase in the interest4 ,the inquiry meetings were full1 and from ten to fifteen were seeking ,christ every night4 ,this work went on for several weeks and resulted in the conversion of fifteen or more--twenty-two for the whole year4 ,there is still some interest1 although other things have interfered to divert the minds of the students from the direct effort for the salvation of souls4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,emerson ,,institute4 ,,by ,,miss ,,emma ,,caughey1 ,,mobile1 ,,ala4 ,the accompanying cut of ,emerson ,institute

adapted to our school work4 ,a basement play-room under the entire building furnishes protection to the children on rainy days4 ,the first floor contains three pleasant school-rooms1 four halls and a library4 ,four stair-ways lead to the play-room1 and the same number lead up to the second floor1 where are three more cheery1 well ventilated school-rooms1 separated from each other by uplifting sash doors1 by which the entire upper story may be thrown into one large hall4 ,here we assemble for morning devotions1 hold our public rhetoricals and evening socials4 ,contributions from friends at the

we may hope is a little rill flowing into that stream of silent influences which serves not only to brighten the lives of the pupils but to help them to a nobler manhood and a purer womanhood4 ,we have enrolled during the year three hundred and twenty-one different pupils under the care of six teachers4 ,we have an industrial department connected with our school1 in which sewing and fancy work are taught4 ,we meet for two hours each ,friday evening at the close of the regular session of school4 ,this evening hour is a happy climax to the week for the girls1 but is a great tension upon the

,state1 of the limited scope of the agricultural products in this section4 ,most of the boys have been accustomed to farm work1 and in answer to the question1 8,what kind of crops have you been used to raising80 they reply invariably1 8corn and cotton40 ,it has been the custom of the planters here to use their means1 men1 teams and credit to raise cotton4 ,while they are raising crops they run in debt for provisions1 and at the end of the year frequently fail to realize enough from the crops to pay the bills4 ,some are learning the better way of raising a variety of crops for the family1 and a few acres of cotton for a money crop4 ,the great want of successful farming is fertilizers4 ,the land is so impoverished that there is no use in trying to raise a crop without4 ,with plenty of manure1 we can secure as good crops as can be raised anywhere4 ,our tables were supplied last summer with a great variety of vegetables and our barns filled with fodder4 ,twelve acres only out of the sixty owned by the ,institution have been under cultivation1 our own table with #bdj boarders making a market4 ,the advantages of climate enable us to raise two or three crops a year on the same land4 ,the soil is capable of producing any and every variety of crops that can be raised elsewhere in the ,united ,states4 ,whatever possibilities may be attained in literary pursuits for generations to come1 most of the manual labor at the ,south will be performed by the colored man4 ,the great want at the present time is skilled laborers4 ,the abundant resources are awaiting men as well as means for their development--men skilled in all the useful trades1 educated in both muscle and brain1 such as can plan as well as execute4 ,there is a surplus of ignorant laborers ,south who cannot set themselves to work at anything but the most menial service4 ,if the present generation can be instructed by skilled labor how to get a good living and earn money to educate their children1 then the next generation can take a step higher4 ,the opportunities offered the boys here to learn the useful arts will be enlarged4 ,at the present time we are only developing the agricultural department in a small way for want of means4 ,we are trying to utilize the labor of the boys for their advantage1 as well as profit to the ,institution4 ,with a fair supply of mulberry trees1 we propose to commence the culture of silk4 ,this spring we have twenty-five boys competing for the premiums offered for the largest product of early garden vegetables grown on the square rod4 ,the work is to be done during play hours and the crop harvested before the close of the term1 the #aeth of ,june4 ,monthly lectures on important farm topics are given to the students4 ,we need an endowment of #cj1jjj for a school of agriculture1 and the same amount for the mechanic arts4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,africa ,,at ,,atlanta4 ,in a private letter ,mrs4 ,chase writes about a young man from the west coast of ,africa as follows3 ,i must tell you about ,philip4 ,we had very interesting meetings last week4 ,thursday the topic was for the church4 ,philip who had not had courage to speak in meetings before this year1 got up and said he was ashamed of having been so afraid of being laughed at by the boys2 he expected in a few years to teach about ,jesus in his own country--and it is your country1 too4 ,he then went on with his intense earnestness and broken ,english to tell of his home--how dear it was to him and how dear his people were--how sad it was that they did not know about ,jesus1 till ,i do not think there was a dry eye in the room4 ,the meeting the next night was a larger one1 as we have no study hours ,friday night4 ,we saw the effect of ,philip's thrilling words4 ,more than one referred to them4 ,a young woman who decided to be a missionary to ,africa last year1 said every word ,philip spoke seemed meant for her4 8,to think that boy1 who was a heathen such a little while ago1 could justly say such things to us with our privileges1 made me feel condemned4 ,i want to preach the gospel to the heathen4 ,i pray that ,i may be fitted for the blessed work4 ,i don't want money1 ,i don't want fame1 but ,i do want such a spirit that it shall be my meat and drink to do my ,father's will40 ,philip's ,bible1 which he brought with him1 is very fine print1 and has no references4 ,he wanted a new one1 so as he had earned some money in summer1 one of the teachers purchased him one4 ,he is so pleased with it he takes it to bed with him4 ,one day he asked his teacher if he could not buy some silk to cover it with4 ,when she suggested covering it with paper1 he did not like it at all4 ,i am so glad he is with us1 he is a great power4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,one ,,day4 ,,by ,,miss ,,adele ,,brewer1

brethren came4 ,they grew more and more anxious for this mission1 when they heard of the aid and refuge given to the persecuted ,christians by the other mission in ,canton city4 ,the first three years we often expressed our great desire among ourselves for this mission1 but never thought of telling our superintendent1 ,rev4 ,w4 ,c4 ,pond4 ,not a word was said to him until at our usual ,wednesday afternoon ,bible class1 about seven years ago1 when the subject of foreign missions was accidentally mentioned4 ,we then told ,rev4 ,w4 ,c4 ,pond what we so much desired4 ,he at once approved of it4 ,hong ,kong was chosen for the seat of this mission1 and ,mr4 ,pond requested that those who were able to write a letter should do so1 explaining why this mission was so much needed4 ,he accordingly forwarded these letters to the ,american ,missionary ,association4 ,though the ,association sympathized with us in our want1 yet how this mission could be established looked very doubtful4 ,the matter was left to stand2 but we remembered that ,james tells us to ask in faith1 nothing wavering1 and we knew that ,god was able to supply all our needs2 so we kept on praying4 ,in the first part of ,october1 #ahgi1 ,i was greatly surprised by the very generous invitation which the ,american ,missionary ,association tendered me to attend its annual meeting at ,chicago4 ,i started for the ,east1 but thought nothing of this ,hong ,kong mission until at the annual meeting1 when ,i felt moved by the ,holy ,spirit to make an earnest plea for it4 ,i also spoke for it at all the meetings ,i attended while ,east4 ,on the evening of the #dth of ,august1 #ahhb 7the same day the ,chinese ,restriction bill went into effect71 the good news came through our superintendent that the ,american ,board had consented to establish the ,hong ,kong ,mission4 ,oh1 how my heart1 filled to overflowing1 went out to ,god in thanksgiving and praise6 ,immediately we called the brethren to tell them the good news4 ,christ has told us to ask and we shall receive2 yet1 when this ten years' prayer was answered1 it seemed almost too much to believe1 and we are here this evening to praise ,god once more for his love to us and our benighted countrymen in ,china4 99 99 99 ,having ,hong ,kong for headquarters1 missionaries and teachers can be sent from there to preach and teach in the villages from which our young men come4 ,besides this1 the ,english language is used more in ,hong ,kong than in any other part of ,china1 and the ,chinese living there1 or those visiting that place1 could not be reached in a more efficient manner than by opening the same kind of free schools for them that you have opened for us here4 ,they need to know the ,english language4 ,of course there are public schools1 where both the ,english and ,chinese languages are taught by the ,british ,government1 but all have their sessions in the daytime3 consequently1 the children are the only ones benefited by these schools4 ,there remains the laboring class unreached4 ,if a free evening school is opened1 ,i have no doubt that much good could be done among them4 ,moreover1 ,hong ,kong is a great highway to all foreign ports1 especially ,san ,francisco4 ,through ,hong ,kong nearly all the ,chinese in the ,united ,states have come and will return4 ,if a general mission could be established at this port1 much co-operating work could be accomplished between our missions here and that at ,hong ,kong4 ,christian ,chinese returning home would receive letters of introduction to the superintendent of the ,hong ,kong mission4 ,this superintendent would have pastoral care over them1 and would be a very great help in time of persecution4 ,converts would be made firmer in faith1 and more earnest in leading others to ,christ4 ,the ,congregational ,association of ,christian ,chinese1 at its last annual meeting1 voted to give #ejj toward the establishing of this ,hong ,kong mission1 and do all in its power to help in the future4 ,god be praised1 for he has shown his wonderful love to ,china4 ,he is to be praised for this beloved brother1 who so kindly offers himself for the ,master's service4 ,he is to be praised for the ,american ,board which sends him4 ,may the ,lord raise up many more like workers1 who shall devote their lives to ,china4 99 99 99 99 99 ,let me add that besides this gift of money1 our mission sends with ,mr4 ,hager one of our very best helpers1 ,lee ,sam4 ,we shall miss him greatly1 but we have plead for this new work1 expecting that it would draw upon us in that way largely4 ,to raise up and train men for ,gospel work among the millions beyond the sea1 will now be one of the chief ends to be kept in view in our work in ,california4 ,and because of this1 we ask with an intensity of desire scarcely known to us before1 a place in the prayers of ,god's people throughout our whole land4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,children',s ,,page4 ,,the ,,coming ,,of ,,the ,,organ4 ,,by ,,mrs4 ,,walter ,e4 ,c4 ,,wright1 ,,berea1 ,,ky4 8,pine ,grove ,college10 as it is called in ,jackson ,county1 needed an organ2 there was no doubt about that4 ,but the likelihood of obtaining it seemed small4 ,away up there in the mountains of ,kentucky1 there were few who had ever seen an organ1 and only the teacher knew how much it would help in the day school1 the ,sunday-school and the preaching services4 ,so ,miss ,barton sang herself hoarse trying to teach the children to sing by rote1 and on ,sunday the minister had to line the hymns for want of books4 7,your grandmamma can tell you what ,i mean by 8lining the hymn407 ,in all the mountain churches1 both colored and white1 the people always sing in that way1 and having no organ to keep them together1 they come out at the end one behind the other1 like the 8rounds0 you sing at school4 ,illustration3 ,,mountain ,,family ,,singing ,,psalms4 ,one day a teacher from ,berea went up to visit the school1 and when she saw the bright1 eager faces of the children1 and the effort the teacher was making to have them learn to sing1 she said1 8,why1 how much you need an organ here4 ,it would lift these children into a whole new world of ideas40 8,yes1 ,i know it10 answered ,miss ,barton1 8but where is it to come from80 ,well1 ,miss ,d4 went home and thought it over1 and then wrote to ,miss ,barton that if the people there would raise thirty dollars1 she would see that they had an organ4 ,miss ,barton did not feel much encouraged1 for the people in that region are not rich1 and one dollar looks very large to them4 ,however1 she read ,miss ,d4's letter to them at ,sabbath school1 and explained what an advantage it would be to have the instrument to use4 ,to her great surprise they pledged the amount at once1 though many of them cannot afford sugar in their coffee1 or butter on the corn bread1 which1 with bacon1 is the staple of their living4 ,i have not time to tell how ,miss ,d4 raised the rest of the money1 how she found a dealer who had a very fine organ to sell at second hand1 and who threw off fifteen dollars when he found for what she wanted it--nor how one friend in ,tallmadge and another in ,akron helped on1 and at last the organ was ordered and sent4 ,it was expected on a certain ,saturday1 and on ,sunday morning you might have seen the people gathering in unusually large numbers4 ,all who did not walk came on horseback4 ,there a mother with her baby on her arm1 and a little girl behind her on the family horse4 ,here the father1 with a three-year-old boy behind him on the colt1 and yonder three older children on another horse1 all sitting with that easy security they express when they say 8,i was born on a horse10 and thinking no more about it than you do when you ride in a street car4 ,but when the people reached the school-house their faces fell as they came in one after another and saw there was no organ on the platform4 ,the wagon had broken down bringing it over the almost impassable roads from the station twenty miles away1 and at last ,sunday-school was commenced with a feeling of disappointment in all hearts4 ,even brave ,miss ,barton felt a lump in her throat1 for she had counted on it like the meeting of an old friend in a strange land4 ,but just in the middle of the lesson the creaking of wheels was heard and some men came in with something still encased in the box in which it was packed4 ,no more lesson that day4 ,every boy and girl1 colored and white1 was as eager and curious as if this was a stray cage from some menagerie4 ,finally1 with some little trouble1 the packing-case was removed1 and there was a plain1 quiet little walnut thing1 looking some like a small cupboard1 and now the question arose on which side was it made to stand8 ,the teacher1 seeing the dilemma1 suggested the proper base1 on which it was firmly placed4 ,then a chair was brought1 some books piled on it--and then they found there was no key4 ,but somebody produced a nail1 the cover was lifted1 and there was their organ smiling at them and showing every one of its pretty white teeth4 ,and oh1 when the wonderful thing began to sing1 how pleased they were6 ,the children forgot that they too could sing 8,praise ,god from whom all blessings flow10 while listening to the beautiful1 strange voice4 ,presently they gained courage and joined in the ,gospel hymns 7which the common people do sing gladly71 and sang1 and sang1 and sang1 all through the time for ,sabbath school and all through the time for preaching4 ,i think the angels hearing the sounds must have rejoiced that day with great hope for the souls that might be won to repentance through the ,coming of the ,organ4 99 99 99 99 99 ,,receipts ,,for ,,april1 #ahhc4 99 99 99 99 99
