two Presidents have been in cfiice in th Parent Suociety—tlie first being Lord Teign- month, and the second his successor the

Earl of Shaftsbury, who ia his 80th year, when he was presented with a handsomely bound copy of the Saered Scriptures as a testimonial for his faith- ful services in behalf of that Society. He .strusted that all present this evening would realizo the presence of the Master and feel resting upon them the unction of the Holy One; and as God has been pleased to permit them to assembie together on this ceccasion, may each one ao live a life of faith on the Son of God that it may be our happy lot in the future life to recognize each other in that ‘* build ing above, a House not made with hands eternal in the Heavens.”

The secretary, Rev. D. MeNeill, having been called upon, read his Report for the past year, and also the Report of the treasurer, J. W. Morrison, Esq., who wae unavoidably abzent through illness. Both reports showed good progress in the work of the Society.

Rey, Mr. Osporns moved the resolution :-—

Resolved, That the Reports just read be adopted, and certain parts thercof printed under the direction of the Committee.

He directed attention to the fact that, generaily speaking, the n: utions inhabiting countries in Europe to the south of latitude fifty-two were Roman Catholic, and to the north of it Protestant—leaving out Russia and Turkey. q here were reasons for this difference of religion be tae en northern and southern Europe, ¢ beyond the great Re formation of the oontury and an open Bible; but this

One great reson, however, for this great difference of opinion was that the degree of latitude alluded to was the dividiny line between the Teutonic and Latin raccs There was one great cause brough: about the Reformation, and that was that the Teutonic races were so constituted that they nearly always did what they were ordered not to do, and if

reaching out after God. Turning to Italy and its Capital, Rome, we find that the Monastic Order has been re-constructed, but there is no spiritual life. Just now the Bible Society find that the present Liberal of that country is not so operations as the late Government had been. This will be the case until the people cease to Bible and Protestantism as ai Spain is not yet} she is willing to sit in darkness as far as is concerned.

Rev. Joun Harris, seconded the reso- lution. He did this with very great plea- sure, and said that he noticed in the Report of the parent society that nearly ihree million copies and portions of the Bible had been issued during the past year. A Society that had for its object the cir- culation of the sacred scriptures must com- mend itself to our sympathy, and demand our hearty co-operation. The Bible solves the great problems of life. There are ques- tions relating to our present existence, and our future life which our own reason could never solve, and, unless aided by a revela ‘ion from God, we would remain in the dark. In order to secure eternal happiness we must stand on the sure foundation re vealed and made clear to us in the word of The Bible comes to men amid their struggles and disappointments, and assures them that there is a God above who has an active supervision of human ,|atfairs ; and it gives them such inatructions as will guide them in obtaining possession of the richest, fullest and most permanent joy and happiness. With the Bible in his a man can pass with confidence through life, and“amid his darkest hours, severest trials and greatest afdictions, can have the assurance that his Father in Heaven will guide and -protect him, and

itenance. Then, again, the Bible shows ns ro the only place of ie and refuge i 1e oe care Of the great God. Men have ‘sought protection in many other directions, j br at “the latter have not sheltered or screen- i them when the blasts of earth have hee upon them. When we come to the ‘Book of Truth, we there learn that the ‘God of Heaven is our refuge and

need.” But men have a tendency to forget Goi. The object of this Society is to win them back tu the source of truth—not to discredit the true utterances of nature and of science, but to spread the Word of G: d, which couiains the philosophy of life, thar man imey be better prepared to use minor truths aa their subordinate relationships, and mere richly enjoy the central truths pertaining to moral character. In this way we will be _ prepared to} utilize every means of gaining all true knowledge placed within our reach and use t for the promotion of our own happiness as well as that of our fellow-creatures, and for the attainment of our best interests here and hereafter.

Resolution carried unanimously.

One dreary theory succeeds another, and ‘all are eagerly grasped at by men whose eyes are blinded by the god of this world, In these days, tov, we find scoffers walking after their own lusts, &c. But, votwith- standing the impiety, the infidelity and opposition manifested against our Lord and his Christ, itis matter for devout thank- ‘fulness that the cause of the Lord is tri- umphing in the world, that truth is conquring error, and that the kingdom whose characteristics are love, joy and peace, is surely, though slowly, enlarging its borders, The Christ of Calvary, with his thorn pierced hand, is grasping the sceptre of universal empire, systems of error apparently as strong and defiant as ever, are becoming honey combed by the instrumentalities of the Gospel, and ere long shall be riven asunder by the power e the truth as it is in Jesus. The Christiaa Church, though in many places paralysed by the spirit of worldliness, is yielding obedience to our great Spiritual Head, *‘ for that light is come, and the glory of the

Lord is risen upon thee.” The signs of the times are at least prophetic of the coming splendors of the Millenial

Day. The grandest factor in this great spiritual reformation of the world is the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. There are other insirumentalities— mauy of them—but this one is pre-eminent. What is prayer, what is preaching, what is religions instruction, withont the Word of God to enlighten the ignorant to sanctify and to save? ‘‘The words,” said Jesns, “fT speak unte you; they are spirit and they are life.” We rejoice that the Word of God, in the timesin which we live, is not bound. Fot-only do mist of the nations of the earth want the Bible; but they may have the Bible. Barriers which formaerly existed against its circulation, have been removed, and now the Word may have free course in almost every nation under Heaven. God is sure ly placing the sesl of his approbation upon this Society. Whilst the infidel press of England, Ger. many, France and America is issuing a flood of sceptical literature, this grand old Society is Lift: ag up the barriers against it, and is seeking to counteract its influence. When we think of the success of this society during the past year, and all the years of its existence, and of the increasing circulation of the Word of God, we ought to feel thankful and doubly grateful to the great head of the church for the blessings which he has vouchsafed to this and kindred societies. A great deal of doleful talk has been indulged in, about hard times and financial loss; but it would be more filting for people to be more thankful for things they have not lost—to feel thankful for something that will remain, and that can- not be shaken. A spirit of thankfulness will have a wonderful influence in enabling us to bear up the burdens of life, and to reconcile ourselves to our losses. With the Word of God we are rich. No matter what our ovtward circumstances may be, if we have its truths treasured up im our hearts, and practice them in our lives. “We go to this Book and find itis possible to ‘* lay up treasure where moth and ruat doth not corrupt and where thieves do not break through and steal.” Surely when we think of what this old Book is capable of doing, and what it has done—the old Book by which our fathers and methers lived and died-—we should feel strong emotions of thankfulness to God for his unspeakable govdness, and contribute generously to the funde of this grand old Society, which has for its object the circulation of the Word of God, without noie or comment.

The longer one looks at the Hanlan-Boyd match, the harder it is to woe rstand it. Boyd, who is certainly, on public perform- ances, a third-class seuller, h is had, during the past six months, frequent opportunities to arrange matches with Ross aud Trickett; and now we learn that Kenney has re- peated}y offered hima race on bis own terms. But he rejects ali these chances, and makes a match, ter an unusually large stake, with the champion of the world, It is well known that Hanlan’s backer is a shrewd English book maker, and it seems probable that the affair has iv it more than appears on the surface. A man who would rather row against Hanlan than Trickett or Ken- nedy, must be a fool, or worse.—Spirit.
