~he Clergy ar~ requested ,to preach annually two Sermons in
their respectIve Churches, WIth a. collection on each occasion for
the General Purposes of the Society.
REPOR''.r.
since the formation of this Society, haJ its members
more. reason for encouragement than at the last Anniversary
meet mg. The proceedings haye been published in full in
the last Annnal Report, and presented to the subscribers in
11 form, which it is hoped, has met with their approval.
His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, who presided on
that occasion, shewed the warmest sympathy in our work,
and expressed his views of its importance in a wfly which
ha~, 110 dOll bt, been fully appreciated by the Society. The
account of his late yisitation tour, kindly read by the Lord
Bishop, added ,Q,Teatly to the interest of the ?Iecting, and it
set before the tlociety the pressing need of the wori{ it has
undertaken to do, and of additional exertions in carrying
ont its holy objects.
At the last Meeting-, it was found that the contributions
for the past year had considerably exceeded those of any
former period. The General Committee, therefore, were
enabled to apI~ropriate a sum larger than usual for Missionary purposes. By this means, a new Mission ,,"as at
once opened at Canning and the adjoining Parishes on the
Grand Lab:, and a Clergyman at OEce appointed by the
Lord Bishop for this important and extell~ive iielu. Soon
after the last meeting of the Society, the vacant I)O~t of
Curate of Saint Stephen was filled by hi" Lord liip, lly an
appointment which has proved highly bendicial to the
Clnuch in that place.
.
It is deeply to be regretted that the JHi3sionfll'Y at Greenwich and Petersville, whose failing health was noticed in
the last Report, has been obliged to resign his charge. And
more recently, the Rev. J. S. 'Williams, Missionary at Campobello, 'was compelled hy ill health to apply for leave of
absence.
The continued depression in commerce :1.11.1 othel' pursuits
of industry during the past year, may reasonably be snpp0secl to have affected in some degree the operations of this
:::';ociety. Already, it is hoped, this period of embarrassment
and difficulty has ilearl.:- passed, and with the renewed prosperityof the l'roYince, the Society will without doubt, Ly

CANNING-GrrA~[) LAKE.-Rev. 'V. Henry St,reet writes a" follows :-" I
enter'ed upon the charge of this mission the latter' end of March last. It
had been vacant for mllny years, and (with the exception of an occa,ional
visit made by neighbourinf: clergymen) destitute of the servioes of our
Church.
"There are two Churches in the mi •• ion-one situat.e at Douglas Harbor,

Churches, there 81'e also four station., at which I hold Divine Ner·vice. My
dutyexten,ls as fill' as Salmon HiveI', and Gaspereaux-a distance of 36
roiles from where 1 reside.
"I have been enabled, by the blessing of God, to hol<1 services ref(ularly
in all these places, and nm harpy to Stl}', that with some exception., th"
attendance has been good. Tile members of 0111' ChUI'ch, however, nre
very few, and much scatlereil. NevertheJeso, 1 have found all most hos·
pitahle, and generally glad of the opportunity atfol'ded them of attending
~he public worship of our Church, 811,1 I pray that the blessing of Gu,1
may continue 1.0 attend my ministration" amongst them .
.. The unusulll depression of business t.hroughout t.he country makes the
amount subscribed to tbe Society much smaller tban it would othel'wise
have been .
.. At a meeting of the Local Committee, it was resolved that application
should be made to the Society for aid to enaLle them to repair aud finish
I.he two Churches in the mission, .\IId also a grallt fol' books .

CIlATBAy.-Rev. S. Bacon, on behalf of this Local Committee, has sent
the following Resolutions:1. That they tire increasingly alive to the paramou~t importance .of the
Diocesan Church Society, conocious that, under God, It must speedily become the main support of the Church in this Diocese.
2. That they renew their petitioll for a liberal gran t this year to.,,:ards
the completion of the Church at Dalhousie, whi~h t~ey ~o w~th additIOnal
confidence, being fully persuaded that no p:uIsh In tue Diocese standa
in more urgent need of assistance.
3. That whereas many intelligent and influential lay members are pereoually present during the session of the Legislature, and most of the IllY
delegates are better able to attend at that period, it is the~efo.re tile opinion
of this Comillittee that the time now fixed by the Constitution of the So·
ciety ia the best that could hava been devised, anil that any change might
only prove prejuilicial to the intel·ests of this Society.
4. That this Comruittee desire to express their grateful acknowledgments
for the liheral grauts of books tlley have received, and trust that they will
in future be i'emembered in tlle usual appl"Opriations.

DouGLAs.-Rev. G. G. Roberts writes: .. Scarp.ely any thing has occurred
to mark the year that lias gone by witllspecial interest. I have committed
fifteen of our people to Lbe grave, several of whom were taken away very
.uildenly. Of ten of these, wllo were adults, seven were partakers of the
holy communion, and it is a comfort to me to ,·emember that iu their dying
hours, thei,· souls sought and received such strength and refreshment.
Tuougll 60 many communicants have been takec away, yet the number i.
etiil a little increased. There are now seventy-one upon the list.
"During last winter I llelJ a bible class once a fortnight. 'Ve met at the
llouses of several of the parishiouer~, in rotation, anil, I trust, our meditations upon the Word of God left us more firmly united in the honds of
Christian love, and further advanced ill the kDowled~e of God, and of his
Son Jesus Christ. I intend, God willing, to undertake again something of
the same kind immediately.
"The little Church at Tay Creek has maue rnpid progress since I last
wrote to you, and will, I trust, be ready fo,· con,ecrntion early in tbe ensuing suwmer. We have also undertaken considerable improvements in
the old Parish Chul·ch. The pews have heeu converted into neat aud comfortable open free seats, and a new pulpit, communion table !lnd rails are
being prepared. The outside aho hus been somewllnt improved. God
grant that tuese changes in the house of God mllV ue but a type of a far
g,·eate~ improvement in the llearts and lives of th';se wllo worship theretllat with them, and all my parisbioners, 'old tllinga may pass a way and
all things become new.'

"The extreme sca.-city of money has llindered me from yet finishing the

"With refereuce to the parochial libraries-there nre 85 volumes at the

ST. GEORGE ANn PENNFIELD.-Rev. J. M'Givern writes, that at the annual
meeting of this Local Committee, tbe fol1owi~g Resolutions were unanimously adopted:
1. That the last year's report of the Society's operations is one of great
encouragement, aDd demands the expression of our renewed tha~ks Lo

2. That th,e ~ac.t o.f having now 20 Missionaries .on ita list, aided in part
from ~ts funos, .IS ID Its~lf a strong proof of the utility of this Society, and
supplIes a motive for IOcreased exertion to all them to whom God has

"The system has been adopted in this parish, of holding an annual
public meeting in connection with the Society, in which the subject is
brought before the members of the church, and information afforded upon

course.
"This Committee is unanimous in thinking a ehange to the sumlDer

ST. Jom'-TRINITY.-Rev. 1. \V. D. Gray, D. D., writes-" What we pro·
mised you in 1856-7, We fulfil in 1858-9, viz., doubling our contributions of
that date. We made last year a long stride towards it, but adverse times
prevented our complete 8uccess. This year, in spite of the times, we
effect it. Our two Sunday collections somewhat exceed thos~ of last lear.
My Sunday school has hunded in three times the amount collected last
year; and Mr. S. Wiggins has doubled his last year's SUbscription, giving
the munificent sum of £100."

" We held our Annual Jlleeting of thls Local Committe!' on Christmas

a stimulus to increased exertion on the part of the Cburcb in this Dioce.e.
"The Committee wa. unanimous in voting for a change in tbe season
for holdiug the Aunual Meeting of tbe Society."
The contributions, not yct completed, will equal those of last year.
SBEDIAc.-Rev. G. S. Jarvis, D. D., has remitted to the TI'easurer £11,
and he wl'ites as follows:"The sum total fOl' tbe year will be foond sbort of loet year. This may
he accounted for, partly on account of the scarcity of money, pal,tl)' 011
account of the railway works having Leen completed, many snbscribel's

great 10 travel, from tbe whole eastern CORSt of tbe Province, and because
there is no steam communication.
"With regard to tbe book., no report can he made of a"y libraries. for
.everal reasons. It would injure the funds of tbe Society, if Ii nes were
collected for misusing Rnd not returning the hooks. Many are carrieil off
hy parties removing from the parish, and many in remote pal'ls of th ..
Mission, are not returned with any degree of punctuality. Auout half the
books are in circulation at anyone time. No person would be I'esponsible
for the library under these circumstances. Beside., the impl·e.sion is, that

\\'oonsToCK,-At the Annual Meeting of this Local Committee, the fol·
lowiog resolutions were passed ; 1. That the than ks of this Committee be retl1l'Ded for the grants of
Looks annually made to this Mission, aud they venture to hope that they
"JOy be in like manner remembered at lhe next appropriation.
2, That ,this Committee view with tha~kful hearts the increasing iDterest monlfested throughout lhe dIOcese, In the welfare of the DiocesaD
Church i:\ociety, aod that Churchm~n generally seem to be arousing them'
.el ves to the vast importance of the work in '" hich they are thUE called
u I'0n to co·operate.
, 3. That this Committee" regarding as it doe., the employment of Mi.SlOoarles as of paramount Importance, lind 8S the ourest way of extending
the Church of ~bri,.t, r,egard with Iuuch ... tisfaction the eotll'se lately
pursued by the 80clety In appropl'lallDg so large a portion of its funds for
:Missionary purposes.
4. That tbough thie Committee greatly feel the preSsure of the time.,
nnd the prevalent scareity ~f money. yet fondly hope th.t there will, on
that account, be no faIlure In ,lI"e funds of the Society, but tuat this ,viII
rather be ,'~,g.rded as an add,tional l'eason for contilluing steadfast in ito
behalf, tru.:wg III the Divine promise, that if .. we cast our bread upon
the waters, We &hn,1l ~Ild it after many days,"
5. Whereas the ~oclety for the Propagation of the Gospel, to which we
owe so de~p a debt of grBtltlld~, Ila., on a~cQunl of l'ressing demands on
23
il~ b?unly from oLhel' pads of the Colonial emroire of Great B"iLl\in, de.
temllned to extend no fu,·ther aid to this diocese, aoJ to withdraw its
pre.ent SUppOl't in every case where II vacancy may occur.
ThereforB resolved. That this Committee regard this as a more urgent
cause why the object of the Diocesan Church docietf ohould be dear to
the,hearts of Ch,urchmen, inasmuch as they must depend on their own indIvIdual ar,J un'ted etfurt5 for the future maintenance and extension of
OUI' most holy faith.
The Committee recommend an appropriation for truelling Missional'ies ;
and also, that the season f',r holding the Annual Meetings be changeJ to
the month of July, in accol,dance wiLh the notice given by the Rev. Dr.
Uray.
The Rev. S. D, Lee Street, in inclosing the aboH, writes that an attack
of illness has hindel'eJ tl,e completion o'f the al·duous work of making the
collections for the Society. The Annual Meeting was lar uetter attended
than on any fo,'mer occaoion, and all pre.enl seemed to manifest a lively
interest in all matters connected with .he Society. "I really begin to
feel," ~lr. Street writes, .. most sensibly, that the continued exposure to
which I am sllhject in this extensive lI1ission, is telling fearfully upon a
constitution which, I thought at one time, sufficiently strong to endlll'e
any degree of fatigue, But I am still ready' to spend and he spent' in
the service of Him whose servant I am, and while God, in mercy, spares
my life, I feel that my strength belongs to Him, Bnd however feohle.
should be devoted to the promotion of His glol'Y and the extension of His
kindgom on ea,·th.

"The wOI'k of this Mission, with the able and willing aid of the Curate,
the Rev, E, S, Woodmnn, has been regularly performed during the past
year. Our united Sunday work continues the same BS before, viz., five
full cervices, with the usual distances of from twenty to forty miles to
travel between the services. ". e have al80 a service every Friday evening,
and the Curate has also monthly service dUl'ing the week at four diffelent
sta~ions.
At all these, the congregations continue most attentive aod
devout, varying in number from thirty to forty-five, and oftentimes many
leave theil' labour in the field, however pressing, to attend these sel'vice.,
I still continue to preach tl,ree times on the Lord's day, and the Curate
twice. The Churches are geuerally well aLtended, and in some of lhem
the congregations are gradul\lIy iocreasing. This is particularly so in
Richmoud, w!,ere the congregation has of\ate often numbered one hundred,
aud sometimeR mOl'e. Tuis may be attrihuted to the frequent visits of the
Curate, and to the use of printed notices of every service left with each
family.

"The people in this parish are most desirous to be separated from
"'oodstock, and have a resident clergyman; aod when it is known that
there a,'e in the parish no less thau sixty families, professedly belongiug
to the Church, their deeire may be regarded as most reasonal,le. The
course I have recomm~nded is this-to ascertain the amount that could
Bnnual;y be paid for th~ support of a clergyman, aDd that 80me two or
three of their number should become answerable for the 8ame. This they
Bre now engaged in duin~, nnd. I tl'ust, with Lhe aid which will surely be
afforded by the Church Society, they will 800n be enahled to accomplish
their much desired object.

"My parishioners have, dUl'ing the past ~ummer, been engaged in
enlarging the hurial ground al"ound the old rarlsh Churoh, aDd erect,ng a
fence at a cost of £45. This expenditure, and the depressed stale of
trade' led me to feal' there would this yeal' be a sel'ious falling off in the
usual' amount of contributions; but I have since found, in calling ou the
Bubscl'ibers, that they have, wi,th fow exception~, voluutarily incl'eoBed
their subscriptions, and expresslDg much regret that they could nut do
more. You lIIay safely depen~ on ~n a.mo,unt equal, to that_ of last year,
and I hope, indeed, to exceed It. '1 he !::locle!)" :n~)" acreud on my u,mus\
exer.ions in its behalf."
Contributions are ill all, £61 Is, 1,1,
24The result then with reCfard to the contributions for the
present y~ar, as ia~hered ft?~ the fore?oi~g. r~ports, is as
follows, VIZ. :-:MI~slOnary "\ ISlte, £8 5s., DlVlDlty Scholarships, £i 2s. 6d.; Books and Tracts, £3 1S:;. 9d. ; Chl!-rch~

and Orphans' Fund, £9 2s.; General Purposes, £1508 15s.
7d.; Total, £1556 I3s.10d.
Here it may safely be affirmed ~s ampl.e proo~ t.hat !he
Society is now prepared to cope WIt~ o~dmar'y. dlfI~culbes,
that its holy objects are regarded wl.th lD?reasmg mtere~t,
and that the cause it has embraced IS taking deep root In
the confidence and affection of its members. And there is
much in those Missionary report~ to stir the zeal and to animate the hopes of those who long to see" the Church of the
living God," with all its blessings extended to the ignorant
and to the destitute.
By reference to the returns of the Missionarie<;, and comparing them with those of the past year, it will be observed
that there is a large increase in the number of public ser·
vices performed, and in the number of communicants and
baptisms, while the Society may observe with astonishment,
the enormous labour performed by its Missionaries, and
the miles they are compelled to travel in the performance
of their duty.
It may at times happen to this Society as it does to individuals-it may have to pass through trials, and meet with
discouragements. 'Vere it otherwise-did all things, at all
times, go on smoothly and prosper, it might be doubted
whether the work were of Him, whose kingdom on the
earth e,-er has been, and e,er will be opposed, even to the
end.
Such things, so far from tempting any to desert their
Master's cause, ought rather to excite to more determined
earnestness and zeal. The frailty of man should feel the
greater need of heavenly strength. III this way, the Society,
as in the case of indh-iduals, under the cor~·ection of the
Almighty, may become only the more" stablished, strengthened, and settled." Each of its members, whatever be his
calling or his oc~upation, not only resolved to giye of his
substance accordmg as God has blessed him but what is
of really more importance, to show by true holin~ss of life,
the advantage of those blessings this Society would extend
to others.
But while the Society claims alike from all its members
such support, the time ~eemf; to hayc arrived when it must
also take up the call made of old, for more labourers to go
forth into the fields llOW "white unto harvest." In a temporal point of view, little inducement can be held out tu
those who would devote themseh'es to tho work of the
ministry. Still, it may be asked, in what other cause is
there afforded scope for a lIobler ambitiOIi or higher aims 1
The object is so weight.y, the interest inyco.ted so important,
that the highest intellect and the most untiring enerO'y can
always find abundant exercise, and, in the end-an'"abundant re,vard.
These are truths, which brought with all their force before rightly Illinded Churchmen, are ever highly regarded.
And when at the Annnall\1eeting of each Local Co~ruittee
the members of the Church are generally asseru11ed, and
the claims and wants of the Society are pressed upon their
attention, this :ll'peal will not fail to meet with a ready response in every <levont and generous heart.
Sinco the r.bove was wTitten, it has pleased God to call to
hiIllself one vdlOse name has always boen closely associated
with this insritution-the Venerable and Reverenil .Archdeacon COSTER, its first Yice President.
To the wise
foresight of tho late .ArchJeacon, this Society owed its
formation, under a Constitution, which, with trifling alterations, has been found admirably fitted to carry out its holy
objects. Though for many yean; past prevented by illness
from. taking an acti ve part in its proceedings, no one felt a
warIller interest in the work of the Society, no one rejoiced
more at its success. His death, which occurred on thc :-:th
J auuary, after a brief illness, is deeply deplored in tho
Parish ~f Fredericton, of which he ,\"a~ for nearly thirty
years the Rector. It will be felt especially ly the ynunger
Clero-y, to whom. he was ever a kind friend and judicious
coun~ellor and this Society will no doubt be ready to add
its expres;ion of deep regret for the loss it has sustained.

APPENDIX.
DIOCESAN CHURCH SOCIETY OF NEW BRUNSWICK.
THE Anniversary Meeting of the Diocesan Church Society of
this Province, was held at Trinity Church School House, in the
City of Saint John, on Thursday the 20th January, 1859. The
Chair was occupied by the Lord Bishop of Fredericton. The room
was very tastefully decorated with evergreens, and was well filled
with an audience composed of the most respectable citizens.
The proceedings were commenced by singing the well known
hymn, "Jesus shall reign where'er the sun j" after which the usual
prayers were offered.
The Lord Bishop then rose, lind stated that before proceeding with the
business of the meeting he would saya few words, chiefly expressive of the
pleasure he felt in presiding over the general meetings of tbis Society, and
the unabated confidence which he felt in the excellence and the benefits of
the Institution. Those words need not be many, because many thoughts
would come fresh from the minds of others who would speak this evening,
tboughts full of love and good will, which would sufficiently engage the
attention of those present. They had now arrivei! at the twenty.seconu
Anniversary of the formation of the Society. During that long period
what changes had taken place in the Christian wodd I More particnlarly
was thet'e a great change in our own Church. At the time when this
Christian project was first founded, the ~Cburch had taken a very little
pat·t in christianising the world; Colonial Dioceses were scarcely knQwn ;
but now the Church had planted Dioceses in all parts of the world and
in every British possession. He trusted that our Church had now wiped
away the reproach of doing nothing for the spread c.f the Gospel througb.
out the world, lind that England would never have to say, that God had
given ber lands or colonies where she would not leave a memorial of the
Church to which she owed so milch herself. This was an undeni'ahle proof
that God's blessing rested on our Churcb, and that in spite of all changes
we carry with us God's·blessing. These chauges were going on continually.;
persons were sometimes going out froiil us; but others were coming to
us, and those who had so come in very greatly exceeded in number these
who had gone out. Those changes among the members of our Church no
douht arose from conscientious motives in many instances, hu~ he thought
that such ·persons had made a great mistake; and it became no~ us, whose
faith is founded on Christian truth, ever to be shaken by tbelr example,
but to go on in the plain path of duty, and to turn neither to the right nor
to the left.
Our own Church Society was steadily progressing: at its
first formation its income was only ahout £.J.OO; last year it exceeded
£1500, and this gratifying fact was an enco~ragem.ent to us to go on .and
increase our exertions in its behalf. Even If the lDcome of the SocIety
had heen a little less last year than previously, we should not have heen
discouraged, when we considere~ the circumstances of t.he counll'y and
the adversity of the times; but It had actually exceedeo ~he amount of
any former Yfar, and therefore we &uould be enco~~aged In our .efforts.

effects of the operations of this Society. than he llad. He Dever v!B!ted
a district wit.hout seeing marks of tbe,r good wOI'ks; h~ Dever vl.lted
a station without witnessing sometbin!!; g.ood tha~ tbe ~oclety .had don~.
He did not make a boast of thi;;, because It was IllS bUBlOess to IOspect hiS
wbole diocese; bu t he had several times visited all parts of tbe P~ov'.nce;
many missiolls he had visited fi ve Limes, nnd many of them even SIX times,
and witnes;ed the fruit of this ~ociety's operatiolls. During the progress
of this work many of our friends had gone to their rest, n~d had left striking marks of their good will to t.his .Sociel."", to hallo.w their memory. We
had to ni~bt to regard with affectlOll and veneratIOn the memory of the
founder of this Society. The late Archdea~on had been prevented onl.1; by
infirmity of bodily health from mediug With the members of the S?clety
at the AnniverMries held here. He could not tronl to St. John Without
illjury to his health; but in the (:llace wh.ere h.e resided" there nev~r was
a meeting of the Suciety hel,1 Without IllS belDg preseno. It was lD~eed
in some degree owing to him that we were now assembled here to-night.
He (his Lordship) would not magnify him (tLe deceased)at the expense of
others; but he would give thanks to God that the late Archdeacon was
One of the principal promoters of this Society, and its fhm and constant
friend. Those now present had carried on the work, and had been one
of its main pillars. A large proportion of the Society's income Came
from U,is city, and it was principally owi~g to their exertions that the
funds of the Society were now more than 'louble what they were a few
years ago. lie (his Lordship) was desirous on tl,;s as on all occasions, to
do all to the glory of God and the promotion of liis cause; an.d tl:erefo~e
he bid them all heal·tily welcome, and trusted that the proceedings of thiS
evening would be sucu 8S would gladden their hearts and encourage them
to further exertions.
Tbe Rev. W. Q. Ketchum, Secretary of tbe Society, then read the Report.
The Rev. Dr. I. W. D. Grny moved the first Resolution; and stated
that he rose with pleasure to move that the Report be adopted and printed
for circulatiun as usual. In conseuting however to discharge this duty this
evening, he stated that be stood there as a substitute for a gentleman who
WtlS unavoidably absent from the meeting; but having been requested to
move this Resolution for him, he (Dr. Gray) did so with clreerfulness; and
tue more so because tbe rerort was replete with matter well calculated
to animate us in the work we have in hand. It contained also some
things deeply to be regretted, and one especially, which Hi. Lord.hip had
already alluded to. But as regarded the general .gpects of the Society,
the report Was full of encouragement, and afforded undeniable evidence
tbat the interest in the Society, everywhere thro~lghout, the Diocese,
'While the husilless of the country
was spreading and increasing.
during the past year had been pamlysed, and tire resources of the
people greatly diminisued, the income of lbe Society had increa~ed from
ahout £1470 in 1857, to upwal'ds of £1~5lJ in 1858, aud witL a pl'obability
that that amount will be still larger before the report can be printed,
80 as to make the income of the past year about £100 more tban that of
the previous one. The contributions made dudllg the past year had been
made with a cheerfulness and good will, exe.,.,Jing all former occasions.
With respect to the Misssionary Heports for the last year, it would be
fouud that the MissionAries of tire Society had been zealously performing
the duties and w?rk of .tLteir holy office. It ought to be remembered,
tha~ many most Jnterestlllg facts connected with tbe operations of tbe
Society ~Quld. not come before our notice iu this I'e port ; 8uch facts 8S
the turning slDDers to God, the conversion of those who bad hitherto
been strangers to Christ, and the building up of believers in their most
boly faith. '~hese .interesting and most important facts could only be
known hy theu' frUits, and tberefore tbey could Dol be brought forwal·d in
the Bnnual reports. But as fill' ns facts Irave been brou"bt forward in
tbe pre.ent report, tbey proved that the missionaries of lui: Society were
APPliSDIX,
most zealously engsged in performing the work to which tbey were de·
voted, New. Churches hod been er~cted during the past yeal', new la·
bOIl~ers sent ID~O the ,fie.ld, new libr~I'ies formed, Bible classes successfully
put lOtn operutlOn, missionary meetings beld, and various olber importaut
efforts made in the sacred Muse of religion, It hod been said hy some
~ritic., that in the ancient Church a distinc\ion was made between
~a8tOTB a.nd Evangelists; th.a~ the former were stationary ill their opera.
tlons, while the latter were Itmerant.. If so, then surely our :\Iissionories
in this pI'ovince ought to be called liIJangelists, As a proof of this it would
be seen, from the statements in the report that had been just read
tbat one Missionary had travelled 1'100 miles in the course oi last yea:
in the pI'osecution of his pastoral lahoul's; a second had travelled
2500 miles; a third 3500; and a fourth over as much as 5500 miles'
wbile another Mis~iollary, who bod trn,<,elled 1'146 mile>, had performed
1218 of them on foot, Tbis was no douht very laborious, but at thc same
time very primitive; for Saint Paul was n gl'est travellel', and a great
part of bis travels was performed on foot, If our Missionaries had
performed tbese travels in doing the work of an Evauselist, thev
had no cause to regret their baviog imitated such an example and laboured
80 zealously in their Master's CRuse; becau.e, "fter they shall have finished
theil' travels here, they will assuredly rest fl'om tbeir labours aud their
works will follow them, There were several things to regret in tbis report;
Buch as tbe vacancies caused by illne"s io sOllie of the Missions; these
it was to be hoped would only be temporary; but for the present there
were 00 means to fill them up; there are other parts of the dIOcese where
the fields are white for the harvest, but the labourers are wanting; we
have not the means to extend the bell' that is called for, 'fbis shewed
us that there is II loud call on us all to redouble our efforts, and extcnd to
the very utmost the meaos of increasiog our contributious to t~e funds of
the Society, 'fhere were many methods of 'accomplishing this: ooe of
them was by individual exertion ·in calling on nil around us to increase
their contributions, and by procuring new subscribere, Something might
be done by means of the Sunday schools, Lost year, he, (D,', G,) had called
on tbe children in his Sunday school fvr penny contributions, and in a
This year
few weeks froro £3 to £4 wel'e cheerfully raised by them,
they had collected three times that amount,
There \vcre probably
upwards of one tbousand children in the Sunday schools of the 'three
parishee on this side of the harbour; DOW if everyone of them can·
tributed only one penny, per month, that would be ooe thousand shillings,
or £50 in a year, No dOllbt thel'e were two thousaod more SUllday
school children in our Church schools in otber parts of the province; and
if the whole 3000 contributed in tbe same manner, that would make an
annual addition of £150 to the Society's funds; an amonnt which, with
the sums to be raised by the people in each Mission, would support two
or three additional Missionaries, Such a system would be highly beneficial
in many respects; it would be ~ccustomi?g the childreu from their earli,es~
childhood to contribute somethlllg to theu' church aud for the promotion
of religion; early practices gradually ~ecome habits;. and tbus such
habits and principles of devotion to the !Dte~ests of ~belr Church and of
religion would be formed that when tbese children. came ~ereafte.r to fill
important stations in life, many C?f those wbo n~w give ~h",r .pen.Dles ma,Y
give their £5 each, or even 8S ID one recent Instance In tIllS CIty, ,their
£lOO to the funds of the Church, But he (Dr, G,) would not be satisfied
with the mel'e fact, that we annuall.y aud a little to tbe f!lnds of
this Society; we ought to du somethIng mo~e, ~e ou~bt to make au
effort to endow to n certain extent the Chnrch !D ~bls provlDc~, ADd how
wos this to be done' The members of the Church 10 Nova ScOtl~ had set uo
a noble example, They bad lntely adopted a resolu~lon, to rnlse. £4.0,04)0
io four years for that special purpose, This p~oposal bad met With great
acceptance, not only from those who llod lutl;erto ~ootrlbuted to th.e
enpport of tbe Church but also from others, aoll Its proJectora hau experl-
.APPE:(DIlL
enoed tbe highes~ encouragement in tbeir work; and there ap.psared to
oe little doubt that they wouln carry their scheme successfully Into effect
within the four years. Their plan was, to raise .the sum of £40,OOO.and
to invest the capital in .. Committee of th .. DIO~esan ~hurc~ .SoCle.ty,
holding office for life; the interest to be appbe.d In payIDg ml.sslOnar~eB,
who were 10 be ranged in three classes, accor?l?g to t~e relative ~erlOd
of their standing in the mini.try. Each missionary IS to be paid .an
annual Aum of £25, £50 or £75, on condition that the parish to which
he may be appointed shall contribute £lOO ye.arJy to .his suppor~;
and thus the several missionaries, according to their ~espe<:tlve class, Will
receive a salary of £125, £150 and £175 per annum. TillS plan would
enable the Society to employ fifty missionaries at those rates of payment.
They had made this effort in Nova Scotia with a good prospect of success;
and if No,a Scotia can carry out such a project, why could not we do
the same in :New Brunswick i 'Yhy could not we ';Oak: Bome Buch eff?rt
also I How should we pet'suade the people in thiS diocese to ?o thiS i
There were various means to effect it. He (Dr. G.) would have bked la~t
evening, in the Executive Committee, to have proposed a Bcheme for thIS
purpose; but he was afraid to frighten them by suggesting more new
projects at present. He \vould have liked to have proposed that a new
column should be opened iu our list of objects, for an endowment fund,
to be applied to the special purpose of employing addit;onal missionaries;
and that one of the semi·annual sermons throughout the diocese should
be preached in aid of that special purpose, and tbat one of those sermons
should be preached every year in this city by His Loroship himself.
A suggestion had been made from the parisb of St. James, that it
would be highly desirable to employ a travelling agent, to go throughout the country, bolding missionary meetings, explaining to the people
the objects of this Society, and urging them to contribute to its funde.
He (Dr. G.) thought that such a system would be highly advantageous to the interests of the Churcb. He was a great ad vocate for these
public meetings; the Society wanted money, and these meetings were the
way to get the money. He hoped that the change which badlbeen decided
on, in the time of holding tbe annual meeting of the Society, would
greatly increase the attendance on these meetings, and thereby proportionately benefit the cause. He regretted that the time fixed upon for the
annual meeting might not be quite so con\"'enient as another part of the
summer. for some persons and especially for his Lordship himself; but
there couln be no doubt thatit would be most generally convenient to the
members of the Society at large. lie hoped, tbet'efol'e, that at future
aunual meetings they would not have to transplant evergreens f!'Om the
forest, to create a IDere semblance of a tropical climate; but that with
open wiudows and the blue sky above, and not even a Saint John fog
to cool their ardour, they might see the clergy and Iny delegates from
every part of the Diocese, to give animation to us, by their presence, and
to afford us the 0ppol·tunity of animating them, by Shewing them that we
Can meet together in harmony and act together in 10," iu promoting the
pa~!lmOuDt objects of this Society.
'
1111'. L. H. DeVeber aeconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously, viz. :
Co!e::lt~~~: i'hat the Report be adopted and printed under the direction of the Executive
The Re\"'.lIIr. M'Givern, on moving the second Resolution Baid that he
bad hoped that this uuty would have devolveo on some m~re c~mp6tent
perso.n than th~ humble individual who now presented himself to the
c;teetlDg. In dOl.ng so~ he apologised by calling to his recollection a questIOn on.ce asked In thiS place, after a meeting similar to the present. It
was thIS: "Where \vere the Clergy last night i And why is it, that with
one or two except!ons (the Rev. Dr. Gray being tben the only speaker),

humbled that he could not answer it. Aud how shou!d they meet it 1
It was true or it'was not true. It would be true if there should unhappily
?e amon!; them even one who, from a feeling of fulse shame or personal
mconveDlence, or any other unworthy motive, would shrink back 01' turn
aside iu a cause like this, where the glory of God, and the spiritual lind
eternal good of his fellow men are concerned. That would be most culpable, aDd an offence, he would nol hesitate to say, justly meriting the
imputation. But itwas not true. If there were some among them who
from natural timidIty or, to speak more truly, from a just sense of their
personal deficiencies, would willingly give place to such of their brethren,
whether of laity or clergy, as are wiser in counsel and of more expel'ience,
yet, after all, willing or unwilling, in this or in any other cause, the cle"gy
could never forget their sacred obligations. Who were they, and what
duties had they here i They WerE' the messengers of CIJl'ist to the world;
a aispensation of the Gospel WIIS committed unto them, and woe be unto
them (and he included himself in this number), if they shrank fro.m this
responsibility. For this was their office and this was their tl'ust, in evel'y
place, no matter where, in city and in country, in village and in town, ill
the sanctuary and in the humble homestead, in the crowded hall (~uch
as this to night). or in the open air, if need be every where, he said. it
was tbe minister's duty to warn every man, and teach every man, in all
wisdom, that they might pl'esent every man perfect in Christ Jesus. Bllt
he (Mr. M'G.) must not forget his Resolution; 011 whic'l he would now
say a few words. The Resolution was an expression of thanks to Almighty
God for His blessing on the labours of the Society during t.be past year.
Surely this sentiment would find a ready response in every christian
breast here present. God had indeed greatly blessed the labours of this
Society; for whicb we bless and praise His boly name. Should we not
say, in tbe language of an excellent aud upright judge of Israel (Samuel,
he thought,) "Hitherto hath the Lord helped us." Yes. he (M. M'G.)
woul!1 say it ex animo, and be was sure it was ti,e spontaneous feeling of
everyone \Vho beard him, and whose daily prayer is, .. Thy Itingdom
come."-He rejoiced to see around him so many Gentlemon of the learned
professioDs, who were always ready, aiding and co-operating in this good
cause. The report which has been read to uight was highly satisfactory:
it was full of hope, full of encouragement and full of progress.-progress
of tbe right kind and in the right direction; progress, not backward but
fOl'ward, not dowuward but upward and heavenward, leading from
earth below to heaven above. This was called an age of progress, and
there al'e those wbo talk and write of intellectual, while they forget
godly progress; but what was all this progress, unless God was with it i
Give me (said Mr. Jll'G.) that maxim above all the maxims of intel.
lectual progress and worldly wisdom, the maxim of the great Apostle of
tbe Gentile., whose whole life was a life of pl'ogress, that .. Godliness is
profitable unto all things, having tbe promise of the life that now is, and
of that which is to come." 17,;& was tbe progress we should all Ilope and
pray for; without godliness there can be no progress; all the rest is. a
Babel, which will perish and come to naught... Except tile Lord bUild
tile house. tlleir labour is but lost that build it."-But a. to the facts of the
report; they were indeed cheerill? in the Ilighest degree.. Twenty mi~6ions aided by the bounty of tbe SocIety.. and fostered bJ:

Although it was n year of gl'eat depre.sion yet the fUllils of th.e ::'ociet.y
ha,1 idcl'easeil, alld the congregations of the churches had Increased.
The people hod been desirous of shewin:; their zeal by becoming members
of the Church, and by givinr( their contributioDs towards its SUppOI·t.
The'e facts shuld,] induce us to en,Jeavour to do something more. In the
coming year we Bhoultl go on increasing the means wher~uy the Society
IlIi"ht extelld its usefulness. and send its messengers of peace to every part
of'the pro\'inee; nnJ he (:\Ir. W.) trusted that during the ensuing yeal'

amount contributed in an)' year 11I'eceding,
:llr, Fritb, io seconding this Re.olution, spoke to the following effect:The re.olutioo wbich had just been seconded differed from the previous
resol utioos in one sense, inasmuch as they referred to the Socie'}, at large
and its operations as a Society, wbereas this appeoled personally to the
indiVidual members, and to all memb"I'. of ollr ()hul'ch, It involved an absolute and unqualified recognition of the interposition of Providence in
the affairs of men, whethel' as nations, churches, ol'iodividuals, To any
one withholding such a recognition, to aoy who did not acknowledge such
Divioe inlerposition, even to the minutest thing, the resolution woul,1 appear paradoxical. Such an one might saY-"llad your resolulion been an
acknowledgment of great commerci.l prosperity aDd euccess, and, attributing this to Divine goodness, ul'ged it ns a cause for iocl'eased effort
and liberalily, it would have been well enough; hut why depre.sion io
trade, stagnat.ioo of busioess, and the waot of money should be argued as a
reason for doing and giving mo~e, J canoot understand." But the tl'ue
Christi all, the man who felt that the haod of God was in ail the affairs of
men, would not thus regard the resolution; he would see it io the same
spirit as that in which Job said, "Tbe Lord gAve, and the Lord hath taken
away: ble,'scd be the name of the Lord," To him it would but echo
those beautiful words of the prophet, which no human ren could imitate,
"Although the fig tree shall not hiossom, neither shall fruit be in the
vines; tbe laLour of the olive shall fail, and the field. shall yield no
meat; the flock sball be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no
herd 'in the stalls; yet I will I'ejo~ce in the I.. ord, I will joy in the God
of my salvation," Mr, F, tben briefly aliuded to tbe cause of the preseot
depressed state of commerce, urging that it appeared to be a chastisement from God permitted to arise, without the usual ca~se8 of \Val' or famine, from tbe very sinful extreme t.o wlllc~ our tradlDg aDd the haste
to be rich had been carried, aDd dl1rlDg which God bad seemed almost

might oppesl' Btl'aoge lo maoy that the SocielY should go to the peo;>\e
of poor alld remote parishes, who could scarce do anything for themselves,
ood ask for oill. But he thought tbis method wal'raoted, by the couree
of nature, Let anyone walk out of a fine summer morning, and no matter
bow arill the soil, or how great tbe drought, he ,,:ould see the verdure
which covered the earth glistening with the beaullful drops of dew. It
might strike him, tbat if those dew drope were rolled down upon the
roots of the plants it would be the better plan, and that they would be
refreBhed aud strengthened thereby; but tbe course of nature was not BO ;
instead of that, tbe sun shone out bright and hot and exhaled the dew,
gathered it up towards himself and held it there, till, of tel' a time, it fen
again in copious and fertilizing showers, and the wh~le earth was l'e,fres?ed.
And so it was with that Suciety ; it gathered up to Itself the contl'lbutlOns
even of the poorest and most destitute districts, that it migbt shower down
upon them again in more copious and useful .trearos the means they so
much requil'eJ, But some time would elapse before the members of the
Society would be ngain call~d upon for their annual eubscriptions, nnd
it might be that the feelings excited by that meeting would pass away, and
that resolution, which he presumed would be adoped, be forgotten. Lest
that .hould be tb .. case, he would t:>ke the liberty of offering a practical
sugge.tion in addition to that already mentioned by a previous speaker: he
thought as far as he was acquainted with the workings of the Society in
other places, that one portion of its members had not been caUed UpOll to
take an active pal't in its operations; be referred to the ladies, than whom
DO more persevering or indefatigable collectors could be found. He had
observed, (rom his own experience as a collector, and from conversation
with the Rector of the Parish with which he was connected, ttiat a large
Dumber of the subscribers were persons whose means would Dot permit
them to give alal'ge sum at once, and who, perhaps only contributing a
shilling 01' fifteen pp.nce a year, would gladly give that sum once a montlt if
called u;>on (0:' it; while it was utterly impossible that they could give
twelve or fifteen shillings at once. He therefure p,'opooetl. and would
recommend to the consideration of the lay delegates and ministers of the
various local committees present, that, when they returned to their llUmes,
tbey should summon a meeting of their committee at the beginning in·
stead of tbe end of the year, anG organize " plan for making regular
monthly collections from those wbo could not give a large sum at once;
aud for tbis pUl'pose he thought tbe aid of the ladies would be found very
valuable, It was well known that otber communions resorted to this
method with great success, and be knew no renson why it might Dot be
adopted with advantage by this Society, If it were so, tbe resolution which
he seconded would prolluce mo'"e lasting fruits than the mere approbation
and enthusiasm which its moving and adoption called fortb. The Reso·
lution is as follows:
Resolved. That the prevalent depression in commerce, and in other br&r:;cbes of in·
dush'y, should urge the members of this Society to do more, accol'ding to their ability,
for the service of Him, on whose blessing all earthly prosperity depends.
Rev. W, Armstrong moved the fourth Resolution, obeerving, that it
was with pleasure he had coneented to move this resoJution, and he had
trusted that it would have been in his power to advocate it more effectually and energetically. Bnt be felt his inability, from hodily indisposition, to do on tbis occasion what he would otherwise have done, in supporting the resolution in his hand. It ,vas not from indisposition of mind,
but of body, that he felt himself compelled to refrain from speaking more
at length; and he deeply regretted it, becauee he truly had tbe interest of
this Society very much at heart.
Mr. W. Wright, in seconding the Resolution, said that he reeretted that
he bad been called npon so eoon to second the resolution (which however
he did most cordially), because he had hoped to have heard from the
reverend mover what he had so often heard from him on similar occaeions,
a very eloquent Bpeec\). He (Mr. W.) deeply regre~ted that bodily indie-
APP&~DIX.
p08ition ha~ deprived tbe meeti~g of that !(ratifiof\tion. In speaking to
tlus resolutIOn, he hoped to contine himself to tbe secular point of view
involved in it. III its I'eligious point of viaw, who tbat had felt the bopes
Rnd knew the pri vileges of the gospel in his own experience, but must reel
it • duty to make evel'y efI'ort to impart them to others, and earnestly
desire to communicate them to thoBe around him 1 Then, in the language
of this l'esolution, we must all feel an incl'easing interest in the spread of
the gospel, and the exertions made in the mother cOllntl'y and in these
sister colollies for pl'omoting that object. We all knew that in tbe last
yeat· or two increasing etr',rts hod been mad,,, not only in the mother
country and in these colonies, but also in the United States, to spread and
increase the operations of the Churcb, nnd to diffuse every where the
hlessings of the gospel. But the secular point of view in this resolution
was what he (Mr. W.) had tu deal with. What is there that so strongly
animates the heart of every man, whicll hp so earnestly desires to se~ure
for himself and those around him, as civil and religious liberty; and under
what system could civil and religious liberty be hoped for, but under that
of tlle gospel 1 When we look back to the early ages of Cllristianity, what
do we behold, but a scene of darkness, bloodshed and misery 1 Look nt
the state of Rome in the time of the Emperor Tibel·ius. Who could read
the annals of that time without shuddering 1 Time would fail to :e~ount
tha atrocities of that reign. But take the period succeeding the fall of
Rome: that period, by the general consent of bistorialJs, was called .. tit.
dark ages" of the world. Tllen let us come down to more modern time;,
and look at tbe heathen nations of the world; as for instance India and
China. What could be more grinding tban the despotism nnder which tbe
subjects of the Em!'et'or of China now exist 1 Just in proportion, indeed,
as nations receive the Christian religion do tbey enjoy the ble2singsofcivil
and religious liberty. He (Mr. W.) had lately read a striking passage, extracted from a recent life of Frederick the Great, which wa. it< his opinion
80 peculiarly illustrative of this position, that be woulcl beg leave to read
it to the meeting. Mr. W. then concluded by reading the extract in
question.
The Hesolution being then put, was unanimously adopted, viz.:Resolved. That this Society feels an increasing interest in the efforts now being made
In the Mother Country for the spread of the Gospel, aou in all simila.r exertions made In
our Sis tel" Colonies.
!lIt·. W. ,Tack moved the fifth Resolution, and in doing so observed, that
the remarks he had intended to make had been in a gl'eat messure forestalled by what hod already been ssid by his Lordship the Bishop, and read
by the reverend Secl'~tary. ~'he Resolution RlIu~ed to .the de~th.of Rn.old
and valued friend of IllS (Mr. J. s); one who was a firm friend ot thIS Soctety
from its very birth. This was a matter inti[JJlltely connected with .tho
formation of this Society. The late Arcbdeacon first. formed the Society
in 1836 and from tuat time to his death he continued its \vsrm and con·
.istent friend; and its rules and regulatiou8, as first fra?,ed hy him, bad
heen almost identically the same down t.o the pr~sent tIme. lIe (Mr. J.)
migbt go back to tbe time wben the Society recetved no SUppOI·t from tbe
inhabitants of St. John. In 1839 its income amounted only to about £400,
and tbere were only three subscribers in St. Jobn, viz., the Rector ofCarleton, the Rector of Portland, and a gentleman of this city. He mentioned
this, however, not to reproach the people of St. J~bn, bu t merely t~ sbow
the steady and constant support given to tbe Society, under all ~trcut?8tance~, by the Archdeacon. He pursued a proper and oorr?ct course In
fostering the young Society, and nltimately that course prevaIled, and now
when the income of the Society was upwards of £1,600. lI!0re than one
- tbird of tbat amount was contributed from St. John. Th.le shew~d tbe
change tbat had taken place in the opinions oftbis com~untt~, and IL also
.hewed that the late Archdeacon Coster wssal ways conslltent tn. the courOG
he pursued. From the year 184~, wben His Lordship tbe Bishop took

con continued to pursue the same cou~se: there .was not a meeting or any
kind held :n F"edericLon connected WIth the SocIety that was oot attended
by him; and although he had becom~ a lire-rne.mber by giving a donati?o
of £10 to the Society, yet he still contwued to g,ve also an 300ualsubscl'lp,

gradually withdrew thei~ support from their chil.dren, as they find them

Arohdeacon, ldlely published in the Head Quarters, and Since copIed Inl.,
other papers.
1I1r. S. R. Thomson in secondin!! the Resolntion said, that there was no
resolution offered this evening, which he '''as more williog to advocate
than the OGe that hadjust been read. From his very earliest recollection of
the late lamented Ar~hdeacoo Coster, he had learnt to esteem and love him.
No hands othel' than tI,ose of his own parents had ever rested more kindly
on his bead than those of Archd~acoo Coster. He (Mr. T.} remembered
him from his eadiest days; no man mOl'e keenly felt his loss than he did;
aud 00 mau was mo~e willing to offer a tribute to his memory thao he was.
Would that he were ruore able to do so; would thnt he could bring before
tbe meeting the numerous instances of killdness of spirit, warmheartedness and benevolence of the Archdeacon, wbich had fallen, under his (~lr.
'1" •. ) personal knowledge. They all knew, however, that the AI'chdeacolI
was tbe first founder of tbis Society; and he {Mr. T.) believed that if it
had not been for him, this Society would not no w be in existence. He
believed al.o that to New Brunswick belooged the proud distinction, of
having originated such societies; Bnd that the idea ellJanated from ArchdeMon Coster, who first broached it in 1832, and carried it into effect in
18S6; aud ever sioce tbat time it had !;one on rapidly increasing. The
lat" Archdeacon was the head and fl'ont of the Society from it first forma·
tion, till his Lordship the Bishop became the head of tbe diocese, and of
course also of this Society. From that period, the Archdeacon's situation
Daturally became comparatively subordinate, but his exertions never relaxed on tbat account. On the cootrary, be increased his subscriptions to
its funds. With a large and increasillt; family (to whom this Society by
this resolution tendel' their sympathetic condolence), he still wenl on iocreasing his subscriptions, and extending his services in his Master's work.
With all bis physical disabilities and infirmities, he earnestly and faithfGlly
went 00, doiug his Mastel"s work; he earnestly and faithfully pleaded His
caus.; and he (Mr. '1'.) believed, that when the venerable Archdeacon relt
h!s time approachiog, when the breath wns failing nnd tbe eye growing
dlln, he felt no terror at the pl'ospect of death, for he knew that hi. reward
was Sllr& in a brightel' and better wodd. Dut there were others mentioned
in this resolution-the widow nnd the fomily; toward. whom the Suciety
would express their sympathy and condolence. When the last hour oHhe
deceased was approachin~, it must have been in the higheat degree s,\tiefactory to the widow alld children, standing arouod, to know tbat that
beloved busband and father was about to die a Christian's death and to
pas.~ from this world to the realma of elernal bliss. And p-ow 'that hie
body rests in its gl'ave, they would find some comfort in remembering,
that while he IIv"d he had done so much in his Master's service' and the
Lest and '-'..ost endurisg monument that could be reared to hi; memory
would be thaI monument that hia own hal!d had raised-tile monument
which he had built up in forming this Society.

Soon after my return from England, I left Fredericton in company with my SOD, the
Rev. J. B. Medl~YI September 7th, on my way to the northern section of the Province. WEt
rea.ched lllackville Church on Thursday morning, the 9tll, and were there met by the Rev.
i:lI. Bacon and Rev. 'V. Crutl~D, who killdly took part in the service. Twelve young persons
were confirmed. Several who had promised to attend were absent, it was supposed, from
being engaged in harvesting, and from their residing' at a considera.ble distance from the
Church. In the afternoon we proceede{l to Nelson, where I conllnncd Dioe t aod prea~hed,
as I had done, in the morning, In this missioD, the people art', for the most part, poor.,
scattered, and partiallyeduca.ted, DUl'jOg my visits to this place, l'egulaIly l'epeated,
wuring !learly fourteeu years, I can discover, I regret to say, few, if allY, symptoms of
improvement in the temporal condition of the people. And no prospect appea.rs before
us, within our lives, or the lives of any of those who will immediately !:Iuc("L-ed us, of ~ucl!
missions becoming self·supportiog. I could wish that our frienus in Englan,l, who suppose
that every Parish can support a clergyman, would recollect that there al'e hundreds of
small villages in the mother country which have been fOL' centuries wholly incapable of
supporting a. clel"~yman, and in which the population bas very little increased. In one
of these rural villages it was my lot to minister, when I was fil'st ordained. And aD a
recent visit to England, I founu it exactly the same pla.ce as I left it, nearly thirty years
since. witt. the simple exception of some improvements designed and carried tnto effect
by the zeal of tlle resident clergyman. ·We must be prepared for similar instances amoDg
ourselves, and if Engbud w ill Dot extend to us a helping huud in these poor places, the
richer parts of the Province must provide it, I sincerely hope, the example already set
by ~Ir, Samuel SCOVil, of an endowment for a. local object, wiJI be followed by those who
have the means, And if I might otIer a suggestion-it would be easy fur several indivi·
duals to combine for such a purpose, and to devote a part of the profit of any successful
enterprise to 80 good an end. None of the privileges enjoyed by those potn' people, could
have reached them, but for the !£;cai which prompted the builder of th€l:IC two Chul'cbeiil,
to place them whel'e they al'e, and for so many yeal's, in all weather, and at all risks. to
minister to their ntcestiities; nor could the good work have been carried on without t1.H~
aid of the Venerable Society. From Nelson, after 8. short vil:lit to Chatham, we proceeded
to Bathurst, where, ou Sunday :~th, service was held, and I preached to a numerous co,:::gregation, In the afternoon we had service, and I confll'med tw.euty in the ?hUrch at
New Bandon, seventeen miles distant, which was filled to overOowlDg, many belD~ unable
to find seats, The congregation here is good and steady, aod has always contlUued to
be so. Three caodidates hl.Ld, on this occa.sion, travelled forty miles to be conflrmed, R.

are opt extinct. but bUl'DS bl'lghtly jn the bearts of :!owe or hel' dlBll~t members, Tho
Al'PJi:NDfX.
nul day "0 re •• bed DalhousIe, nrty·one mile., where I conllrmed olgbt, and pre •• bad.
Thence, In company with Rev. C. Street, my son, and Andrew Barberie, Esqulre, we proceeded to tbe district called tbe Flat lands, tlVenty·six mile. beyond DalhousIe, on tho
bank. of the Restigouche. Two of our number slept the preceding night at the hospitable
house of Mr. Ferguson, antI the others bad gone on to make preparation. Our new
hostess was an Englishwoman, a native of BarDstaple, in Devonshire; and greatly Wall
this good woman's heart cheered by baving her Bishop and Olel'gy at her house, having
also the same Bummer been honoul'ed by a visit from his Excellency and the Cbiet Justice. Her best cheel' was Bet before us, hel' welcome was equally refl'eshing, and mOl'O
than all, wp, :-ejoiced in the value which she set on the word of God, and on the
Gospel.hlessings which we were commissioned to deliver to her.
In this very!'&mote place, nineteen young persons, who had aU been examined and prepared, by the
zealous attendance of Mr. Street, were confirmed. Some of them lived on the Canadian
side of the river, but the larger part resided in this Province. It is greatly to be desired,
that a resident clergyman should be sent to Dalhousie. He would find abundance oC em ..
ployment, and many to welcome him, though his income must, to a considerable extent,
be derived from without. In fact, when I menHon that Mr. Street's mission includes both
Flatlands and Shippegan, places one hundred and twenty..six miles distant from each
other, besides Bathurst, New Bandon, Tettigouche, and other places, it is obvious that i&
is far too extensive a field for anyone missionary, and must prove injurious to his health.
On my return to Bathurst, I confirmed six at Beldu!l, by the way, and thirty-four in
Bathurst Church the next day. The whole appearance of things, in this mission, was
cheering, and a good feeling subsisted bet\veen the pastor and his flock. On my return
to Chatham, I confirmeri twenty.five, a smaller number than usual, which probably was
from the circumstance, that St. Pa.ul's, which lies at a distance from the town of Chatham,
had been fixed on for the place of confirmation. It is gl'e~tly to b~ desired, that two sel'vices on Sunday should be beld in St. Mary's Ch~pel, i!l Chatham. For want of this, our
people acquire desultory and wandering habits, nrhich are very inconsistent with their
duty, and which, I fear, there is no hope of preventin;, so long as the sen'ice is held at a
Ohurch three miles distant. This, however, cannot possibly be done, unless a Curate bo
had, or unless the services at St. Paul's were abandoned, which would be distasteful to
otbers. At Newcastle, the next day, I confirmed eleven, a larger number thaD I expected,
among the very few Chul'.:lh people there, and in the absence of the missionary from ill
bealth. 1\11'. eruden, howevel', had done his best to gather them together during bis ab·
sence. On Tuesday we proceeded to Baie deSl Vents, accompanied by several mem.bers of
the Chatham congregation. Though we reached the place in the midst of a violent thunder stol'm t we found a Ye,'Y good congregation assembled, and tweoty·ooe were confirmed~
This is another of those remote and destitute places, where no bope can be entertained
of the mission supporting a clergyman, whilst we ca.nnot be too thankful th::lt the Church
has been planted there, and sustained by the fostering hand of the Yenerable Society at
home.
From Chatham, I was kindly conducted by !\Ir. Dacon, to Richibucto, where I was the
guest of the missionary, and the next day I contil'med fifteen. The number would probably have been larger, but my notice had miscarried. The new Rectol' had been vel'y
kindly re~eived by the Parishioners. Welford was visited on the 2·HlI. 1.' be Church is
sadly out of repair, and wants painting. and for want of timely attention, I fear, without
Bome ex~1"tioD, will be rendered useless. 'I'here was a large and attentive congregation,
and the clergy, with some of the laity, who were oUt· conductors, accompanied me to the
rectory, where we were kindly and hospitably entertained. The next day I left Richibucto
lor Shediac, and confirmed twenty·one on the 25th. This place has much increased since
my last visit, and hopes are entertained of a ne'v Church near the Railway station. At
Cocaigne I confirmed only three; but the number of members of the Church of England
at this station is. and probably will l'emain, extremely sma.Il, the inhabitants being
chieOy French, and of the remainuer, only a sma.1l portion belonging to U9. From She·
diae, Dr. Jarvis kindly drove me 8cr09S the country to Bay Verte, where I was hospita.bly
entertained by Mr. Siddle. liere I co nth med four. If this seem a very sma.H number, it
must be remembered, that until this last year, there never has been a sufficient number
of communicants to admit oC the celebration of the Holy Communion. With such dim·

At Westmorland, on tbe 29tb, I eonflrmed 8lxteen. There Is always a large congrega.tion at this place to welcome the Bishop, as it is near several stations, and Dot far
from Amherst, where several warm-hearted Church people reside, who alwnya take plea!:lure in meeting me and encouraging my labours. Several of the pupils of 1\Irs. Ratchford's seminary were confirmed, and one young ,voman came forward, under no ordinary
temptations to abandon her duty. After being refl'eshed, by the kindness of my hosts,
the Rev. :\11'. Dlisi, and Rev. !o.II', Townshend, the latter drove me, on the lst October, to
Sark"ille, where I consecrated St. Paul's, the new Church. It was, unfortuna.tely, a very
tempestuous day, which prevented great llumbers from being present, though, as it "'as,
we had nine clergy, and a very considerable congregation, 'fhe next day, which was, tf
possible, more stol'my-I again held B~rvice, and about one hundred ani twenty persons
attended. This Church demands a sepal'atE." notice from me. It is Dot ooly one of the
hanQ60mest yet built in this ProvincC', but it has beeo built almost entirely by the exertions of our own people, and does them gl'eat credit fOl' skill and perseverance. It will
hold three hundred and fifty persons, and the seats are all free, and unapPl·opriated. The
eWect, hath externally and internally, is sta'ikingly good i two memorial windows were
given, one in memory of the late 1\Irs. Dotsrord, and the other in memory of the lion.
Ur. Cl'an~; a handsome and melodious organ is placed in the chancel, and the seats for
the choir arranged opposite to each other, near it. There is only one subject of regret
connected with thE." Church, that the inhabitants of so populous a place cannot at pl'es~nt
bave service every Sunday. I have no doubt Whatever, that if this could be effected, and
a resident clergyman, of active habih, were placed ill the Village, that a vel'y gooll congregation would be gathered rounu him, and the whole interest of our Church would be
increased, although the chief efforts of one of the denominations in this Province havo
been made in the vicinity. During the interva.l between thig day and Sunday, I r~mained
at the hospitable man.5ion of Judge Botsford. On the iattea' day I condl'med nine persons
• at the old Church, SackviHe, a vel'y large congl"egation attending; and in the aftel'noon,
confirmed two at Dorchester. This place should undoubtedly be sepa1'ated fl'om Sackvill!",
and made a separate mission, for there is plenty of work for a resident clergyman, 1t
will be dace, whenever our friends know their strength, and learn to believe that it
can be done. There is undoubtedly a way-the only thing wantiog, is the will. 'With
confidence in each other, and in their own ability to act, and a full conviction of t hQ
benefits whil::h would ensue, I can see no insurmountable difficulty,
From DOl'chester. I proceeded to Hopewell, Mr, Nichols meeting me on the way, and
confirmed seven on the 4th October, and on the next day confirmed three, baptized one
adult, administel'ed the Lord's Supper to thirteen, and consecrated the new Church by
the name of St. Stephen. Thi~ building, which has been long in finishing', is a t last completed I and we have two consecl'ated Churches in the mission, and se\'el'all'egular sto. ..
tlons, I entertain no doubt that the mission, which hasatl'uggled with extraordinury dif·
ficulties, "ill prove beneficial to the community, and will lead many persons Into the
Babel' and scriptural ways of our Church. But we must not fa.int nor be discouraged by
small results. The present mis::;ionary has met with much to encoura.ge, and much to
dish~al'teD bim, but there appears to be a generally t!xpressed kind feeling towards hIm,
As at New Ireland there were none to be confirmed, I returned to Dorchester, and reached
the Bend on the 7th, where I <!onsecrated so much of the new burial ground as is secured
for the use of members of our Church. I wish it to be understood, l;enerally, that 110tend to follow this !>recedent-first set in St, John, and on subsequent occasions. It is
from no feeling of pride, or bitterness to-rrard! other christians, that I decline to conu ..
crate a. whole cemetery, to be used indiscriminately by all christians, except RomaD
Catholics. Consecration is a ::lolemn act of worship, specially connected with the rites
and usage! of our Church; and in my vie\v, at least, though ( do not impose that vie~ ~n
anyone else, it is inconsistent to perform vicariously for oLhers an act of worshIp an
which they do Dot join, and which they tolera.te only as 0. matter of convenience to themdelves. Only let a sufficient portion be secured for our use, and we leave others to th'l
full enjoyment of theil' own views as to what is Decei~ars or dtsirable to be done. Thera
is no breach of cbriljtian cha.rity here.

me to Dutch VaHey, where a new Church is in course of erection, situated on a knoll at
a ben.1 oftbe valley, eight miles from tbe pariah CIIUl'cb, It Was thol'ougllly filled. Th.
next day I proceeded to St. John, and confirmed thirty seven In St. George's, Carleton,
the congregation being very large, the musical pal't of the service excell~nt, and the
whole confirmation gl'atifyiog. I preached as on other occasions. The whole number DC candidates confirmed was three hundred and thirty. I also consecrated three
Churches, one Budai groo.nu, and ordained two Pl"iests, and three deacons during thQ
yea::.
A few remarks may cloie this summary of my tour. 1. It seems proper to observe
that there is pl'obably no Diocese in a British colony, where it 19 more necessary to
do our duty patiently, without expecting great res';1lts,.c;ban in New Brunswick, Although
we are sometimes burdened with the odium which aUaches to the name of an established
Church, it is obvious that, In DO fail' understanding of the word, caD the scattered multitudes who do not belong to our communion be considered OU1' parishioners. And yet they
do Dot hesitate to avail themseJves of OU1' services, without any l'enumeratioo, whenever
It 8uits them, and we are often' ~xpected to visit and help those who have no faith in OUl"
acts of worship, and al1 their lives long have remained. alien to it.
Properly speaking those can only claim OUl' spiritual assistance, who strictly attend
our services, or profess a desire for instruction. Yet where are those to be found? Out
of the towns, they Jive scattered in thes\! vast wildernesses, living often fa'om hand to
mouth, ill educated, ill furnished with religious books, few In number, not collected in
anyone spot, and without anyone superior mind among them to u£l.sist us in their inetruction, In England thel'e is in almost all villages what is called a church town, Hera
is the school, almost invariably in the hands of the Church, generally supported by th e
chief propl'ietor, or the iuhabilants, and there is no difficulty in gathering the children
together for daily, and Sunday religious instl·uctioD. I have been myself connected
val'ochially "ith three English parishes, In the first, every child capable of being taugbt
8t all was sent to dames' schools, alld on Suodays to the Sunday schools. In the second
parish, I built schools where nearly three huudred children received. religious instruction,
and "ere all taken to Church as t.he best practica.l commentary (.In the Catechism they
had learned, In the third,a similal' numlieroC children were similarly taught and trained
Alas! where are those goodly institutions in the country settlements in New Brunswick?
'rhere are sc!U'cely any ,Yeekly schools which can in strict propriety be called Church
schools, and in the remote settlements the distances are so great that it is often so much
as the clergyman and his flock can do to get to Chu\'ch, and he is obliged to hurry from
one place of worship to another aU the Sunday long, with hal'dly an hour's rest.
In the week also, one visit to a. sick man often occupies half a day, sometimes a wllot.
day. And the congregations when brought together, aftet' the ruost 8ssiduiJllS and persevering labour, consist of fifty, forty, nay even twenty periwns, sometimes less, In fact
three 01' fOUl· of our average congrega.tions might with great advantage to themselves and
to our Society, and to all parties cODcel'ned, be draughted into one, and the ,york no,v
done by three clergymen could be done not only at less expense of time, labour. and
money, but could be better done by one clergYlllan, than by three, only Bupposing (which,
the circumstances forbid liS to suppose), that the people lived in or neal' a village! and
could be brought togethel' into one place, For then not only could one pa.stor see them
all AS often or oftener than three can at pl'e!lent, but he- could much more efficiently su~er..
intend their religious instruction, and draw forth their active- sympathies.
Whydol (\wellon tbe •• tbing.? To discourage you? No, but to point outtothooe
wbo may look on the small result. of tbi. and of sucb like tours, a. tbe fault of the clergy.
that it is ill fact the etI'ect of a providential arrangement, which we cannot alter, and
which we must be content to submit to as our lot. All thin we cannot site.· it, we muat
take it as it is, and make the best of it.
You will see that I am obliged to travel three miles for avery person I confirm, and I

Ja.bour, far from it, but I must say the result is sma.ll. Yet I know not that you oaD fairly
lay It to 1.11 account that it is so.
APPIi:lDIX.
Another cironmstanco to be deplored is thn t the eounh'Y people are often 80 ignoun t of
what the Church of England is doing in England he1'self, and in her rorty colonies, in
preaching the word of God, and saving the souls of meu. Political newe is in every mouth,
but how Cew know any thing of the blessed institutions yearly being formed and suoported,
of the hundreds of Churches coneecrated, of the happy reast days held for the benefit of
old and young, ot the spirit of liberality which sends forth into New Zealand, a.nd
hlsh'alia, and the islands of the PaCific, anrt DOfneo, and the region bordering on the
Himalayas, and the Cape of Good Hope, and Natal, and GL'ahamstowD, and Sierra Leone,
and the Mediterranean isles, and to the late seat of war n.t the Crimea, and a multitude
of lesser places, the good seed of the gospel, planting the Church in its integrity and enriching the land that gives more than the lands which receive the benefit? In St. John
and Fredericton and St. Andrews, and a few other pla.ces, these things are partially
knowD, but very little of this knowledge is diffused in the heart of the country. It is high
time then that we should endeavour to diffuse such knowledge, which must have a useful
and charitable effect, and will encourage the members o( our Ohurch in their own exertions.
I must trespass on your time a. Ii ttle longer While I call your attention to one more
subject, which I do most unwillingly but of ne&ssity. It is to the temporal condition of
the clergy. It is a happy circumstance that this city stands foremost in generously supporting their own pastors, and has this year in a time of unexampled difficulty, largely
augmented its contributions (or the general good. But it too often happens in the country,
where the income of the pastor is in most cases very sta'aitened, that sums are set down
In a list given into the hands of the Bishop, and laid before the Church SOCiety, which is
never paid, and of which it seems not uncharitable to say, that Borne of those who set
their names to it might have known tbat it could not probably be paid. The clergyman,
on the faith of this guarantee, is sent j he embarks in considerable expenses necessary to
enable him to do his duty efficienUy, yet at the end of the year not half the promised aid
is granted. Surely it is not speaking harshly to call tbis an immoral act. SUI·ely we have
a right to call on OUl· brethren, as honest men, as christian9, DO longer in any case to lie
under this reproach, and it seems to be the duty of our Committee to set them free from it
by a notice that where a guarantee has been given, and no satisfactory re aSOD can be assigned for the non· payment of the stipulated sum, that the Missionary, with the sanctiun
of the Bishop, will be sent to some other post, and his salary assigned to it, after due coneideratioD, I am happy, however, to bear my willing testimony that such condUct is not
general, and that in many places, for many years past, the stqJwated salary baa been.
duly and punctually paid, small as it Is.
But I should not do justice to you nor to myself, were I to lead anyone to suppose, tha~
we regard temporal matters as the chief objects of interest, however necessary they may be
to the respectability and comfort of the cIel'gyman. It id our duty, it is I hope our constant desire, never to forget, that our chief business Is to save Bouls, our chief interest lin
In following the example, seeking the favour, and obeying the word of Him whose will is
paramount to all other obligations; and that we shall best commend ourselves to God
and to all the people when we "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteollsness,"
trusting that" aU other" useful II things will be added" unto UB. With these high truth;
ever before us, we desire not to be discouraged by the many and peculiar difficulties which
press upon us at this time. But as the clergy are men of like passions with yourselves, W.
must pray you not to be di~couraged, nor surprised, should any of our uumbe.: unhappily
prove unfaithful to their trust, or betray their Master's interest by im.morality or apostacy.
Such instances of hUman pails ion, and mil!guiued zeal, all ages have produced, and we must
expect their recurrence to the end of time; but the effect which they should have on our~
minds should be, not to fill us with unmanly fears, or UDjust suspicions of otbers; not to
lead us to visit the offence of the shepberd on the Church which the Great Shepherd or
a.1180uh~ has entrusted to our care, but to make us each and all mOra distrustful of our
Belves, more watchful, bumble, patien t, cautious and self-denying in our ways, and more
observant of that e"act and solemn account wbich each ODE" of us shall hereafter give to
God. "And when the ChietShepberd shall appear," we shall, according to the ma.nner
in which we have di.:)cilarged our oflice, receive f,'om Hi, mercy "a crown of glory which
fadeth not away,"
