The association reassembled this morning at 9
CViOtk, in the Mcctown Baptist Church, the Mode
rator, Kcv. Isaac Cole, In the chair. The proeeed
jipct were opened with devotional exercises.

Jtares of f 170 so. Oh motion forty dollars of the
talance In the Treasurer's hand was ordered to be

The following resolution was adopted :
liesolccd. That we heartily sympathize with all
efforts to prepare and circulate faithful versions of
the word of (Jod in all languages.
The Committee on Corresponding Bodies reported
a number of minutes as received. The report was re

sion recommended the town of Plymouth as the

junk, alternate; and Rev. K. B. Cook write the

The report was received and adopted.
The Committee on Obituaries reported on the
fleath of Rev. Benjamin AlileB; also on the death of
EUzaiieth Ferris, a worthy pastor's wife, and of Rev.
J. B. Williams, late pastor of the Plymouth Church.
3'lie report was adopted.
The Kev. Mr. Luther, a returned missionary from
India, made an address on the subject of missions,
that being the special order for 10 o'clock. The
revcreml gentleman was obliged to return to his
native land on account of Ill-health, lie gave a
short sketch of his work in Burmali. The Rangoon
ialssionwith which he was connected was estab
lished about 1S&0 by Rev. Mr. Vinton.
At that time his efforts were much
Helped by the English officers of the
Government. It Is entirely different now. The
Uovcrnment officers now are among the greatest
enemies with which the missionaries have to con
tend. The way of working is to send out one or
two young men, evangelists, at the beginning of the
i)ry season, to one of the numerous clusters of vil
lages. They hold meetings usually in the verandah
of the chief 's house, or the principal house. They
preach litre, and also hold schools and teach the
children. The only cause why the whole continent
of Asia has not been convulsed with a religious
effort is because there arc not men enough. This
method of working is sure to do it in time. This is
the true evangelist way. It la the way the first
disciples worked. These schools which are thus
i-Btablislied always give birth ro churches. There
is not a single instance known where a school
bes been tlms established without a church follow
ng within the space of two years. The converts
made within the race of Correns are very stable,
more so even than those of the Burmese nation.
They can be depended on as much as any American
t'neelogical student. It is found that to produce
this effect they must be taught while they are
young. By teaching the young the foundations are
laid on which the structure can be firmly reared in
1 .itare ages. The missions now are in their second
stages. The work of foreigners is mainly now one
I oversight. The main work Itself is done by
the natives. Men must be sent to train up enough
of these native workers. When we get to the third
stage, the missions can tnke care of themselves ami
tram their own men. The great want is for first
class workers. Several rsen have been sent who
were totally unfit for the place. This has been
noticed by tse natives. A native once asked
concerning one of these incompetents why he
Lad oeen sent, remarking that he would not bo
worth his Halt in America and would not earn his
living there. Of course he could not earn it in
Jt.:a.
The missionary work in this country will event u
fclly be narrowed down to furnishing the means.
There will be no need in a short time to furnish
oro:gn men who cannot stand the climate. If a
sattlcieni number of nicnare only furnished now to
train the natives, in BlTy years they will be so
trained that they can take care of the work them
selves, dnd convert the rest of the nation.
What is known as the Burmese mission is not so
flourishing as that of Corren. The English ritualists
Lave the whole territory. They have line buildings,
tad spent last year as much as forty thousand dol
lars in school buildings alone. They have only to
ut for the money to get it. These are the greatest
opponents to the Baptist work in that region. Thev
Five a splendid education, and charge the natives
nothing lor it. That field cannot be gotten back.
The greai, efforts of the ritualists have overcome us.
They have the best native teachers. Fftecn years
EfO they took Burmese natives and trained them for
the work. But the Baptists have got such a hold on
the Correns that the ritualists caunot do much harm
there. Sometimes, however, their fine organ and
inasic, their beautiiul chapels, anil their systems of
rewards, draw off some of our convert childreu, but
'. it Is not oi ten.
After the close of the missionary address the Coni
liiittee ou Devotional Exercises icported In part, and
recommended that a collection be taken at the close
of the doctrinal sermon for the Baptist Historical
Society. Received and adopted.
The Board of Trustees offered a report relating to
an election to fill vacancies in that body. The re
port was received, but action on It was deferred
tint il the Mternoon session.
The spe.'ial order for 11 o'clock, the dncti-iual ser
mon, was then delivered by Rev. J. B. Hutchinson,
f olivet, the congregation first singing the liymu
Tho year of jubilee Is come.-'
Tue sneaker took as his text the twenty-fourth
Verse of the 3d chapter of Paul s letter to the
Komans, "Being justified freely by His grace,
tnroagh the redemption which is in Christ Jesus."
The to- trmal theme of thesermou was redemption.
The following IB a short abstract:
Redemption home times means the price paid, at
ether times it means the act of payiug down the
price, and at still other times it means tne effect of
the price being thus paid. The Scripture sets down
redemption us a remedy. Cod had originally set
down a certalu course of events. The eilects of sin
interfered with this course. The remedy for this
change is redemption.
'i he salvation of a sinner is not the primary aud
leading work of redemption. The redemption of a
Christian believer through Christ is only a part of
the work. The whole work includes also the re
demption of all matter from the meets of sin.
The creation cannot have Its full perfection with
out redemption, and therefore God cannot have His
rtoe. Redemption is the educator of nature. This
Idea is carried out in many parrs of ScriDture. Our
attention is called to the redemption which is lu
Christ Jesus. The apostle in the text goes from the
particular to the general.
There are three thoughts embodied in the text,
tLe purpose, the Dlace, and the principle of redemp
tion. The first purpose il the Orlory of tiod. It is appa
rent that through and by sin God is mistaken. Men,
by reason of sin, cannot see God as He is, and so
in. tjtake ll:iii ami His purposes. Not in creation as it
in, can we perceive the whole glory of God. Crea
tion wants to know what God is lu His moral char
acter as wtll as what He is as the creator. What In
manifested of God in His creation, government, and
justice is not all that (lod is. Do we know all God's
love for right and justice? All His power? Aside
Irorn redemption, we say no. Take, as an example,
the prodigal's return. It was only when the prodi
tral returned and saw the father governing the feat,
.rlering the servants, and greeting the returned
one, tuat he knew all the father's heart, aud his
capacity for mercy and compassion.
J'ne second p urpose of redemption is to establish
law. The. introduction of sin was up n tie princi
ple thai Gid in His administration of lu .v was arbi.
traiy. It was not perceived that its introduction
would mar the whole method and la w of (rod. An
other purpose is the destruction of featau. 8a' in
was U'i d sheartened by his failure in heaven. Ho
stiil had power in other places. It Is nece.ssiry that
be should be robbed of all power, and this is one of
the pnme ends of redemption.
Tne destruction of sin is auotlier purpose. Bv
mom: s of redemption sin is made to stink in the
lios'.rils of believers. Another purpoie is the salva
tion of a fciiicer. This has already been referred to.
llow can i.O'l save a Kinuer when He has said that
lit will damn him? This is the problem
wlii:h is solved in the Gospel. It is solved by re
demption. The last purpotte is the completion of
cres'.MJD. Through redemption we are to have a new
itetvens and a new earth. Matter is not to b ,er
muentjy mdi-red through the temporary blight of

the mediation shall turn npon the principle of sub
stitution. K responsible person is pnt in tho place
of the Blnncr who should himself have borno all the
punishment of sin. It was also a substitution of
rnnlshment as well ss person. The death of the Son
of Ood was put in place of the actual execution of
the law. This substitution necessitated incarnation.
Bypasflngby the nature of angels and taking npon

procure a redemption which took In both matter and

At the conolnslon of the sermon the association

Tn FrNKRAt, of ix-Jtjsticb grier. The funeral
of the late ex-Justice Grier took place from the resi

Despatch to the Associated rresa.
Washington, Sept. 3S. General Spinner
to-day received a letter from Springfield, Mass.,
enclosing a counterfeit fifty cent note (new
issue), bearing the vignette of Stanton, for
which the Treasurer stated reoontiy bo would
give five dollars, firmly believing there was no
such counterfeit In existence. The writer calls
his attention to this oiler, and General Spinner
will accordingly remit five dollars. As the re-

that further vigilance will be met by a similar
