and shame of open vice; a more numerous attendance at public worship, and an accession of about 15 to 20 communicants. Many persons, embracing these constant opportunities with much gladness, and almost daily advancing in the knowledge of the Scriptures, discovered all such testimonies of joy as prove most gratifying to a Christian. It is humbly hoped that the advantages of this plan will stimulate the similar exertions of many pious

Christians.

Association for Reading and Hearing

the Holy Scriptures.

we

By permission of Mr. whose names are written beneath have unanimously agreed to assemble ourselves in this apartment, on the evenings of, ——— ———, for a fixed period between the hours of seven and nine, for the sole purpose of reading and hearing theScriptures. "That a proper reader be selected from our own company; and that in failure or absence of such, we do invite one or more proper persons from among our neighbours, or from other companies, who will benevolently undertake this office, till a regular reader be appointed.

"That, desirous to give the utmost degree of utility and permanency to our association, we will use our best efforts, that on no occasion we shall remain unprovided with a plain and careful reader.

"That we proportion the measure of our reading, for the most part, to about one portion of the Old Testament for two of the New.

"That our express object is to promote a spirit and habit of reading and hearing the Divine Oracles with a daily and earnest constancy, on all proper occasions; confident that from this source alone are derived our highest interest-our present peace, joy, and hope our future glory, honour, and immortality."

CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY.

ON the last day of this present January (to be continued on the last day of every month), will be pubJished, price 3d. No. 1. of Monthly Missionary Tracts, to be entitled, the "Missionary Register." The Committee of the Society for Missions to Africa and the East hope, by this monthly circulation of Missionary Intelligence, to awaken among the members of the Church a more general zeal for the propagation of the Gospel. These monthly tracts will be written in a plain and simple manner; and will be calculated to convey information to the cottages of the poor, and to excite their prayers for the success of missions; while they may also interest the feelings of those who can contribute their pecuniary aid to the Society. These tracts, besides communicating all the most recent intelligence respecting the Society's missions, will briefly notice the state and progress of other missions; and will contain such matter, respecting past attempts and future prospects, with the lives of exemplary missionaries, as may, with the Divine blessing, diffuse holy zeal in support of this and similar institutions; and be the means of encouraging a spirit of prayer, and of calling forth some useful labourers to the work of Christ among the heathen.

The Committee request the friends of the Society to promote the sale of the monthly tracts. Orders may

be given for them to any bookseller, who will supply them regularly with the Monthly Magazines and Reviews.

The Committee are engaged in forming Church Missionary Associations in various places. Of these associations we have already given an account in our Number for October, p. 677.

Two copies of each Monthly Missionary Tract will be sent, gratis, to every member of committees or subcommittees throughout the empire; one for his own use, and the other for lending among those persons

from whom he collects the weekly contributions.

The Secretary, the Rev. Josiah Pratt, 22, Doughty Street, London, will, on application to him, furnish papers adapted for circulation in order to the formation of Church Missionary Associations.

SERAMPORE MISSION.

ON Sunday the 13th Dec. a sermon was preached by the Rev. Basil Woodd, M. A. rector of Drayton Beauchamp, at Bentinck Chapel, on the occasion of the late fire, which destroyed the printing office of the Missionary Society at Serampore, in the East Indies, on the 11th of last March, and also in aid of the important object of translating the

Holy Scriptures into the Oriental languages.

The collection amounted to 1301. 1s. 6d. We rejoice to hear that the sum of 6,5001. has been raised in England and Scotland on this occasion. The sympathy of Christians of different denominations has been prominently drawn out, and an unity of zeal in promoting the interest of the kingdom of Christ remarkably displayed. The Missionaries have lost no time in repairing the loss and delay sustained by the conflagration; specimens of new impressions from types formed out of the lead melted by the fire have been transmitted to this country; and the editions of the Scripture are in considerable forwardness in the Bengalee, the Orissa, the Nagree, the Tamul, and the Seik characters.
