[" MONTREAL WEEKLY WITNESS, \u2014 \u2014 TWENTY-SIXTH VEAR, MONTREAL WEEKLY WITNESS, 81 per annum, CORRESPONDENCE.[For the Wirxsus.ANNUAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN BUARD.THE FIRST MEKTING On Tueaday afteravon the Bouc met at Me- ehanice' Hall, & large and wefl-ftininhe room.1t is, however, so badly lighted that it was ne-* cessary to have gas in the day time, und when\u2019 crowded the atmosphere within was almost etitting.The report of last yours work was! read at thix meeting by the Secretaries, With\" great thankfulness it vas announced that the \u2018 Board cloacd the year with lews than one.fourth of the debt with which it had commenced it, and that its financial oo udition was very satisfactory.A good deal of anxiety had been felt as to how the withdrawal of all contributions froan Presbyterian vhorches, in connection with the giving np of certato \u2018eh missions to that denomination, would affect : the Board.But matters seem to have wi.usted themselves better than conld have been hoped for.Plenty of funds have been on hand for the work of the Board: but the urgent! «all from almost every field lines been for more | wen.Numbers of women ars offering the selves ; but women, though very useful, o not do everything, aud at least t0 wen are required at once.In many places there is! abundant hope of success if missionarics could be ut once pushed into new fields but this cannot be done without » ie aries, Many of the present laborers, too, | have been at work for ceuly à quarter vf à century, and unless substitutes are provided their places must soon be [eft vacant.The Board keeps sedulously to its resolution of employing missionaries only for the purpose of oceuping strategic points.and of training and overlooking a native ministey, and it is much to be lamented if the Christian Church : in America cannot send out envugh of men! for this purpose.The survey of the Missions! of the Board presented many points of inter- ent which it ix impossible at present even to! hint at In the evening the sunual sermon was preached by the Venceatle J.M, Post, DD, of St.Louis.His subject was, \u2018 Our duty to tollow the example of Christ in ministering te others.\u201d The large Tabernacle church, which was crowded to overflowing, was tastefully decorated with autumn leaves, evergreen wreaths, and mottoes, SECOND DAY.Du, CLARKE\u2019 VISIT TO WESTERN ASIA, On Tuesday morning & most interesting account was given by Dr.Clarke of his ree «ent visit to the mission stations in Western Asis.He had gone, he said, merely as & private individual, to make the acquuintance of the missionaries.At Beyrout he bud received a welcome which showed that the separation of that station from the Board bad in node- gree diminished the love which the missionaries felt for the organization with which they had so long worked, He visited Tarsus: but nothing remained of the city of Paul save ., few marble columns among the rocks, the present town being of very recent origin.But he was met even outside the city Ly tbe fruit of Paul in the person of an Armenian, He fonnd the missionary there living in the most economi- al style, though charges of extravagance had been made against hits ; aud he took oc: vasion to say her\u201d that he bat found such charges invarialily false, every dollar being made to go as dar as possible.In another place he attended a meeting of native preach «ra, and was obliged toconfess that everything was carried on shere in a way as orderly and: prudent as in any American Synod.Île bad heard that they wiched for à college, and had gone very doubtful of ite expediency ; but the reasons given had convinced him that it was most desirable to havo an institution to mise up a thoroughly trained native pastorate.They urged the fact that infidelity was coming in as a flood from clvilised lands coincidently with the use of sewing-machines and kerosene, the Jesuits were founding a college ina neigh boring town.They pleaded their cause with COM Christian world pr DUTY OF THE 10ARD TO NOMAN CATHOLUE COL NTRIKR, A memorial was presented cequesiug that the Americau Board should carry on missions inthe EC.countries of Europe, portant point, Many of the churches have withdrawn thelr contributions from the American sud Foreign Cheistiun Union, tel the work 1d be carried on better and more econom Board, The committer which was appointed to counider this memorisl reported that, in their opinion, the time was coun for taking up these missions, duel recommended that the ways spd means khould be referved to the Provisional Committee.Thin work would not interfere with any other mission, but would sitaply be sn extension of the present work, Dr.Buddington ssid that, glad as he was to bear the recommendations of the committee, wou few e was & universal feeling of sympathy with the work.Members of tho Buard who kreatly excited iu this work, to which the So.ci 4 1 from these ticlds was greater than any which bal come from outlying Macedonisng, These lands were now not even Rowan Ca tholic, Lat were Atheists, Work was needed which would stiv up the sanctified enthusiasin of the Churches, Thess nations, as they were secking for indepen varn that i'they could only Rnd it in connection with the Educatic religion of Christ, Dr, Todd thought nothing i a wats.J vos ee the Fer Lau Company, held at Brockville, discussed and _JoSEN.\u2014 Cin the 12th Mept\u2026 ut Kirkdale, Liverpoo!.: ithamendments, a L-ase to the Canad Knuisnd, tho wite of J.Pearson Junes, of 8 diugbte \u201cuetall d that teh acre the ex.Pamed, withamendments, » re yi 4 oul surfed that eh acre was the cx Central Railway Company in perpen, of he ALLELE HLS LIL SE et tiew took up claims betwequ the Fort and the Carleton Place and Ottawa Nection \u2014\u2014A con- pot aro.mn the wth inst.the wife of Mr.{town of Winnipeg, (distant about balf à siderable fire has been burning in the wood Noru ar Un the ath x oy at.at 47 mile), which bad al wagn been claimed by the around Arnprior for the last fiw days.\u2014\u2014The Lagaurie: orn at.the wie of Mr DB N roa.Company The vilicer in charge there has just folluwirg is the drapatch received by the Go.NF.of \" : w ; vernment, and published by them :\u2014St.Paul MARRIED pui ; p- a put .4 im a UL 7 Fm adr he command of (1505, DAT, In yy, nth, a, os l'entitted to five hutelred geres around Upper Geueral L'Donoghue, attempted to croas the dausnter it : Fort Gares, only subject the right of Go.\u2019 border line où the Sth, at Georgetown, and on | Buren vernment to select auch portion of these lands Monday forming capture the, « tna tien : ri a iste as is requires for their own use, which puts portum House, the H ns Hay the matter à very different light from what!
