    The natives are building new churches and
maintaining native pastors. Benevolent societies es
tablish, re en a firm footing with constantly en
larging contributions. (2.) On the North American
Indians. The cause among the Dakotahs was parti
oularl:v pro;perotts. There were large numbers de
sirous of education and many lent ah open ear to the
teachings of the Gospel. They are becoming more
thrifty and industrious. A prominent business man
remarked that the Indians were " manifesting a won
derful propensity for work." Mr. Riggs recently fin
ished and forwarded to the I3ible souse for printing,
the Psalms in the Dakotah language.
The Rev. Dr. Atkinson of Oregon, spoke of Rev.
Dr. Whitman the Oregon missionary, through whose
efforts Oregon was saved to the United States. He
crossed the Rocky Mountaine, came,to the borders of
Missouri, with frozen hand and face, and there find
ing emigrants who were heeitatiug to go to Oregon,
told them that he would lead them there; that wagons
could be got there. He came on to Washington and
saw Daniel Webster, who was just about to sell out
our claim to Oregon to Great Britain; for an interest
In the New Foundland fisheriest o , On his explaining
to Mr. Webster and to President Tyler that wagons
could be got there, that emigration there was possi
ble, the sale was not made. Dr. Whitman did bring
the emigrants and their ws.gons to the Columbia
River, There a provisional government was estab
lished. All this is due to Whitman, and for this he
was massacred with his family, by an Indian backed'
by a power behind. We doubtless`should never have'
sought to have California, for gold had not then
been discovered either in Oregon or California, had
we sold Oregon for a cod-fishery. [Laughter.] This
is the result of a missionary's work, who at the same
time did not neglect the spiritual interest of his peo
ple. God has put a claim on every ounce of that
gold, for the cause of missions. We never could have
lived in the late war without the gold of the West.
Indian converts have twice saved the country from a
desolating war which had been proposed to carry on'
against the "Bostons," for all Americans ; are called
Bostons. [Great laughter and. applause,] •
(3.) On the Gaboon mission.; affairs were about as
they had been •for some time. No additioa to the
Church reported.
(4.) The report from the Zulu mission is that pros
pects were never brighter. There are 448 church
members, about 1,200 attend some of the services:
Both among whites and natives, the , results of the
work have been very encouraging. Considerable
progress has been made in translating parts of the
Old Testament, and in revising the New.
Rev, Mr. Wilder, of the South Africa mission, said
the average amount of contributions in the United
States for foreign missions is 250 milli; or 25 cents
each. But these poor Caffres gave'sl .50 each. .The
report calls for reinforcements. God has given the
Zulus a beautiful country, and the Zulus are a noble
people who have shown great prowess in war. They
have brains '
• they have hearts ; they have intellect,
and through the influence of 'this people the 'Grositier
will be carried to all parts of the benighted Africa.
(5.) The Committee on the China Mission re
ported : Two new substations have been established-
during the year, A few conversions are reported. /In
many places it is extremely difficult to overcome the
native prejudice against a foreign religion. Two small
day schools are under the care of the mission. The
experiment with the girls' school is regarded as an
encouraging success—the enterprise being one of the
most difficult that can ba undertaken in China. The
field occupied , by this mission is now thrown 'wide
open. In the North China mission the out-station
lung Chow has become a full station. Eleven per
sons were admitted to church membership. There
are six schools with about 60 scholars, of whom 17
are girls. The work thus far has been one of seed
sowing, but the remarkable opening of China to civ
ilization and the Gospel promises great and rapid
triumphs for the truth.
(6.) Central Turkey mission has six stations and
twenty out-stations which show a gratifyinr increase.
The Protestant community has been enlarged by
nearly a thousand members; one hundred and thirty
three have been admitted to the churches, and the
contributions exclusive of church' building, over
$3,700, (gold). The prospect for the early evangel
ization of the region embraced in the mission was
never more cheering than now.
(7.) The Eastern Turkey mission. shows a steady
advance, the organization of three new churches, and
the addition of ninety-seven members, and forty lie. ;
tive helpers.
(8.) -The Syrian mission is in a most satisfactory
condition. The press is now speaking to the 150,000,-
000 people who use Arabic tongue.
(9.) The Nestorian mission shows great advance
towards self-support. The Protestant movement, of
two years in the mountain field " has not fulfilled its
promise, as many had ndt sufficient faith to endure,"
but the way was prepared forfutnre labors.
(10.) Western Turkey and Greece show internal
rather than external growth: ' One new` church 'has
been organized, and twentaeseven 'persons have been
added to the membership. Contributions $2,664. A
gratifying increase in the number of students is re
ported. Much of the work is necessarily devoted to
the training and supervision of native agency. The
formation of native ecclesiastical unions has relieved
the missionaries of much detail.
(11.) The report on the Hawaiian mission epeaks
of the influence of the government, under the pre
tence of impartiality to all systems of religion, to
break down the influence of the missionaries. Evan
gelical Protestant teaching in the schools is prohibit
ed, while the Papal manual and catechism ate regu
larly taught in some schools. Christian parents have
been led to establish private schools; embracing 954
scholars. There were 827 conversions, contributions
$29,023. A native Chinaman was sent as a mission
ary to his own country, There are twenty-six native
pastors, beside four licensed preachers, supported by ,
thetHawailans. Therheological school'has had twen
ty,
pupils. The report of the condition of the Micro
nesian and Marquesas missions is very bright and
encouraging.
Dr. Clark, Corresponding Secretary, said that it
might gratify the audience to know that six young
men had come here to confer with the Secretary, with
the object of entering the Chinese mission. [Ap
plause.]
The Rev. J. F. Stearns, D. D. of New Jersey,
Chairman of the Committee for the home department,
reports, satisfaction with the management, and the re
port Wits accepted.
Dr; Treat Wished to make a statement to show
bow we are drifting, and why special appeal is neces
sary at the' commencement of the year. InSeptern
ber,.lB64, our contributions ware $29,000 ; in, .1865,
$25,000.; in 1866, $24,000; in 1867, $18,000; in 1868,
$16.000.

Evening Session.
The session was spent in addresses_
Dr. Hopkins, the President, congratulated the
Board upon its freedom from debt, and upon the fact
it was now substantially agreed as to the plan ofmis
sions. He concluded as follows:,, •
There is 'reason for congratulation that we are thus
agreed. And yet this is not the time .for such -con-,
gratulation. We arb likei our, army when they had
just begun to ascend Lookout Mountain. That was
not the time for congratulations. ,We are, not yet.at
the top of the mountain. The time for congratulation
will be when the•smoke shall:have. been dissipated,
when the world Shall have become subject .to.Ohrist ;
when we shall_ stand on thetriorintain of Ziori, when'
• sin and death shall have passed away.
Col. 'Hammond of Chicago, Rev. Mr. Mrashburne'
of Constantinople, President Roberts of Liberia Col
lege, and Rev. H. H. JesSup - alki addreegd : the,
meeting. •
Pour churches were filled to overflowing fol . ; rom
munion services, a thing unknown before, save at the .
Jubilee meetin,g in Boston, in 1860. '
There was also 'a meeting to-day•of the Woman's
Board of Missions, formed for labors through and
in behalf of :their sex on heathen ground. ~Thix re
ceipts were $4,000, and seven teachers have been ap
pointed during.the year. 4 is- an anxiliary, of the
Board'and works in t its . , r ,
Fourth Day—Farewell Session.
The Board was called to order by the President at
Si o'clock Tuesday morning, the. hquse already
crowded to its tamest capacityby those eagerto wit
ness and participate in the farewell services,. After
hymn • And, prayer, the usual,resolpt,iona of thanks
were passed. Dr. Poor of New Jersey made a brief
explanations. If in the warmth' of Jaiaspeech two
days before he had seemed to reflect in the least upon
the officers of the Board in' regard. to the care of
missionary.children, it was aninadvertence. Nothing
was further from his intentions. On the contrary,
he could bear,witness to their great kindness, cour
tesy and magninimity in all these matters; Still he
would have the churches think of these children, and
in every way lend a helping hand when they
Rev., Dr. Martin, missionary from Peking, of the
Presbyterian , board, was• introduced, and expressed
great sympathy with this Board in its operations: In
China there is a wonilregs awakening. Far away
over the seas he had heard of the "uprising of a great
people." There was 'something 'similar to this in
China, 400,000,000 of people awakening, from the
sleep of 4000 years. The. Chinese, after all their
boasted superiority, begin to see and confeiS that they
occupy an inferior plane of civilization. They 'now
want, our science,.And our religion—
Some had,felt troubled by the Treaty recently form
ed, allowing them to set up their temples and their
idols in our own cities ;, but it was the .true toleration.
Let them Come. Let Christians 'look upon their wor 7
forship. It will be a sermon,r missions. Yon' need'
not fear them. Their heathenism is an effete, 'dead
system. It cannot propagate itself.
China has had twerity-two revolutions, but .all on
the same level, like• the fabled giant turning, from
side to side undei' Aetna ; , but the presenitreyolution'
is of another port., It is lifting them up to a higher
civilizatiOn. He closed hy, a fer Vent God speed to
the.America,n Board in the name' of his Society.
At this point the Treasurer had a few words to say.
He repeated some • touching contributions ;- a; draft
for $5O, a thank-offering from a lady forthe relief of:
the Board from debt ; two .other fifties from, ladies for
the pleasure enjoyed at this .meeting;_ a gold chain,
from a husband now in heaven.; three gold ringsit
silver 'watch, worth $lOO, given by a missionary., in
China; one Spanish silver dollar given by a sexton.
of a church in New York State; a gold Japarfei&
coin, and a gold three dollar piece,- the latter , once
owned by a slave in the South ,and hid bY hint for,
three years in the earth during the war. •: •."
The last two were bought by, Hon. :Wm, t.. Dodge,
for $5O. The same gavq $lOO to redeem all the j9w
elry to be returned to those Who had given it. 'An
other gentleman gave $l.OO for e the watch, the watch
to be given to the first missionary going out who
needs it. •a Another gentleman; the brother of a mis
sionary, gave $l . OO for the Meiican dollar.
Dr. Clark announced that 21 new laborers are to be
sent out within 'the next few weeks. But more than.
this are needed—sixty this year. The Board would
send one hundred twenty if they could . get them.
Pray for these new missionaries.
Dr. Jessup said that in the' name qf thiSband of
missionaries about to go abroad, he was to say a few
words" of farewell ' It was not'the fifst 'time he had
said farewell" to thiS Board; but he hoped•it would
be many Years' befdre he should stand before
them again. , The nations axle waiting for the Gospel.
They have waited these two :thqusand years, is
sad to part with friends; and yet, the 'happiest, tient;
of the missionary's life is when he turns his face to
wards his field'of labor. ,
• ,
But I am to say a word of fare Well, first AO
Christian pastors. , Do not let the , monthly,concert
die. , k missionary from Turkey , returned kale na
tive village, and went-unknown , to the monthly con r
cert. At its close he rose and said he knew why, hey
had so little success in Turkey. The Church ',was not
praying for them as they should. Pray for `u`s.
Fire Well to Sabbath-school teachers—teach the Chil
dren to love the missionary work. 'He urged th'etiin
portance of a midsionaty paper for the children. • To
Christian parent,—some of you are about tcysay fare
well, perhaps forever, to some, of your dear children.
May God enable you to doit with,Christian resigna,
tion and love. .For any otherobject I' could not
. . , . , .
leave pay . children ; kir missions I can do it cheerfully.
Some Intiie* not ,given theiP Children to this' Cause,
some who have brought them to the sanctuary and
dedicated them to God. You , have given them to
Christ;'.see now that, you train theuf as Christ's chil
dren. To young men and, women, he said, we ought
to be ashamed, of our country and our Christianity,
that it is so hard to find the missionaries we need s .
One word for the Prudential 'ComMittee and Se
cretaries of the . Board. He desired inAhis Conneeticn
and thus publicly to thank the Secretaries and the
faithful men of the Prudential- Committeefor all their
thoughtful kindness 'and. unwearied. , carelfor . him, and

President Hopkins made the farewell address on
behalf of he 13oard, thanking the citizens of Nor
wich for their generous hospitality. The Board came
here, not so much because they were invited; they
sought the invitation. They desired to come. And
after what they have experienced this time, it will be
strange if they do not desire to come again. It is a
place rich. in missionary associations. Six mission
aries were born here. More than twenty were na
tives of this region. Here also was the first great
missionary meeting, in 1842. These associations made
us desire to come here. I believe in the Apostolic
Creed, especially, just now, in " the communion of
saints." We have had it here.
Rev. M. M. G. Dana, pastor of the Second church
in Norwich, and Chairman of the Coininittee of Ar,
rangeinents, responded oh behalf of the citizens of
Norwich. He 'expressed thanks to the Board for. its
coming. They had anticipated it with Some solici=
tude ; but now they were sorry to lose their guests,
The,closing prayer was, offered 1?y Rev. Dr. Ver
inilye, of Hartford ; and after singing the parting
hymn, "Blest be the tie that' binds,' the benediction
pronounced by Father 'Cleveland ointoston, now
in the 98th year-Of his age. And so the''Board ad
journed to meet next year in :Pittsburgh,'

800 MILES
UNION PACIFIC
RAILROAD
Are now finished and in operation. Although this road is built
with great rapidity, the work is thoroughly done, and is pro
nounced by the United States Commissioners to be first:class
every respect, before it is accepted, and before any bonds can
is-uerl upon it.
Ilapidity and excellence of construction have been secured by
complete division of, labor, and by distributing the twenty then
sand men employed along the line for long distances at once. I
is now probable that the,
Whole Line to the PACIFIC will
be Completed in 1869.
The Company have ample means of which the Government
grants the right of way, and all necessary timber and other mate
rials found along:the line of - its operations; also 12,800 acres of
land to the mile, taken in alternate sections on each side of its
road; also United States Thirty-year Bonds, amounting to fremt
$16,000 to $lB,OOO per mile, according to ;the dft3cnities to be sur
mounted on the venom sections to be built, for which it takes a
EleCol.l4 Mortgage as security, and it is 'expected that not only the
interest, but the principal' amount maybe paid in service rendered
by the Company in transporting troops, mails, &c.
THE EARNINGS OF TER UNION PACIFIC: RAILROAD, frau.
its Way or Local Business only, during the year endinOune 30th,
1868, amounted to over . .
Four ;Million Dollars,
which, after paying all expenshawas much more than sufficient in
pay the inter, at upon These earnings are no initieaticii.
of the vast through traffic that must follow the opening of the
line to theXacific, but they certainly prbve that .
First Mor4age" Bonds
upon such a property, coating nearly three times their amount,
Are Eutire y Secure.
The Union Pacific Bonds run thirty years, are for $l,OOO each,
and havecoupens attached. . They bear annual interest, payable
on the first days of ,January and July at the Company's office in
the City of New, k r ork,,at the rate of six per cent. in gold. The
principal is payable in gold at maturity. The price is 102, and at
the present rate of gold, they pay a liberal income ou their cost.
A very important - consiilenttion in determining the value of
these bonds is tke length of Linie they hone to run.
It is well known that a long bond always commands a much
higher price than a short, .one. It is safe to assume that dur
the next thirty years, the rate of interest in the United States will
decline as it has done in EUrope, and. we have a right to expect
that such six per cent ,securitiee, as these will be held at se
high a pretniumas those of this 9overument, which in 1857, we, e
bought in at' from 20 to. 23. per cent. above par. The export de
mand alone may produce this result and as the issue of a private
corporation, they are beyond the,reach of political action.
The Company believe that these Bonds, at the present rate, are
the cheapest security in the market, and the right to advance the
price at any time is reserved,,. Subscriptions will be received in
Philadelphia by
