tvftoEfl aK3i THE FUTURE AFRICA Discussed at the Inter-Seminary Alli ance Convention. AN APPEAL FOR MISSIONARIES. Meeting of Delegates From Cities All OTer the Lnited States TO TALK ABOUT THE UNENLIGHTENED The first day's session of a convention was held in the Fourth TJ. P. Church, Alle gheny, yesterday, which is alike of national and world-wide interest and importance. 'Twas the eleventh annnal gathering of delegates representing he American Inter Seminary Missionary Alliance. The scope of the alliance is the amalga mated efforts of all, of the missionary work ers, both home and foreign, connected with the seminaries located in different cities of the Unhid States. Their deliberations and the different ramifications of their work cannot but have a great influence in mis sionary matters the world over. "The Stu dents' Volunteer Movement," which is fos tered by the alliance, has sent 300 mission aries to different parts of the world, and 200 more young men are awaiting the hour of their departure for their newfields of labor. The convention opened with about 200 delegates representing the different semin aries of the United States. The forenoon was given up to an informal reception of the delegates. Rev. H. T. McClelland, D. D., of Western University, delivered the opening address at 3 P. ai. C H. Stack pole, o Boston, read the first paper, "The Prospects of Alrica." His handling of the subject showed that the text was a familiar one to him and many new and interesting points regarding the future of the ever interesting "Dark Continent" were brought out. An outline of the paper is appended: THE CENTUBY DIVIDING LINE. "The pre-eminent event of the closing Tears of this century is the partition of Africa and the leading question ot the com ins century will be the regeneration of this race but hitherto comparatively unknown and almost unthought-of dark land. "I am in a hurry to read this paper, for fear it will become obsolete. For the Africa of to day is not the Africa of yesteiday or to-morrow. The world i thinking and acting on this subject, and e live in a time when prophecy is fast becoming history. History is last prov ing these prophecies. "All the maps f Africa are antedated, and the will continue to be. For, though Africa has, indeed, at last been formally introduced to the world and all the principal geographical problems solved, yet the army of explorers, political, commercial, scientific and missionary, that are to follow will reveal for generations secrets of nature and possibilities of civiliza tion that ill keep historians and geographers in a constant state of revision. For I hope that it may be impressed udod our minds that we are dealing with a field whose capabilities are untold, and, too, that the timing of its wondertul opening is a striking fact. The activity of the scientific and missionary spirit, the means of rapid com munication and wide exploration make it possi ble lor this quick aire to do tor Africa in half a century what for the American continent it re ouiredthri-e full centuries." Mr. buckpole reviewed at length the strife of nations for the possession of Africa. All eves are now turned to this section of the worl 3, aiid its regeneration means the addition of many mighty nations to those now existing and the development of a country that sur passes that or the United States in extent and with as great possibilities as first lured the set tlers across the Atlantic In the course ot the reading Mr. Stackpole referred to an extract from a .London paper saying: "We may possess Africa in an absolute peace and grow nations in its vastculturable plains and in the valleys ot its broad moan toins. valleys that would hold state", and over its mineral regions, which, if rumor may be trusted, are as much richer as they are vaster than Colorado. The names we are always bearing about the natives bat what harm can tbeyon. unless it bea barm wben an empire fs .belnp founded to provide cheap laborr Eng land is universally a crabber. Germany is com mercially jealous. Win? There must be some value in this black diamond. The avarice of the world is aroused, and here is a lesson for the Church. SLAVE TRADE OF CENTRAL AFRICA. The slave trade was mentioned. Abalf mill ion children are sold in Central Africa yearly, and large sections depopulated by the slave hunters. The natives have tbeir own slaves, and this evil is the great yoke that is to-day pull ing Africa down. Arabs take slaves" to barter for ivory and other articles, and on ihe Uhangi river the standard of commercial value is flesh, which is eaien bv the cannibals. Human beings are also the victims of religious rites. The slave trade in Egypt, where 25,000 beings are under shackle, and in other European countries wa" spoken of at length. The Berlin Anti-Slavery Conference of Nations was com mended for its efforts to aboli-h slavery and the fact commented on that the United State- un der a Democratic administration had refused to prohi hit the sending of rum to the benighted land. Some statistics on the exportation of spirits was giveu and the doubt expressed whether rum or slavery was Africa's worst enrse. Mr. Stackpole said that anotner danger to Atnca ua the introduction of Mnbatnmedism. Ihe boudan has a population of 92,000,000. and not a single Christian minister. Other large sections had never heard of the true gospel, while fale doctrines were flourishing. In closing his paper Mr. Stackpole said that "He who thinks that in the evolution of Africa to Its civilization tne Caucasian will be the future dominant power, is mistaken. 'Twill cot be as with America. The natives will not fade as before the break of man. The negroes and native races, clothed in their right mind?, will rule the future cations of Africa and be the coming lords 'Tis left to the Cau casians to point them the way. The rerener atea Africa will inherit the vices as well as the virtues of tbe Caucasians, and the stamp of Europe and America will be upon the future enlightened people." After a discussion of Mr. Stackpole's paper, Mr. V. H Cossum. traveling secretary of the "Studen's' Volunteer Movement,'' took tbe floor and made a fervent and strong argument ative appeal for volunteer missionaries to go to heathen lands. ItEV. WATLAXD HOTT'S ADDRESS. Tbo evening sesion was devoted to bearing an address by Kev Waylana Hoyt, D. D of Minneapolis. His subject was: -David Living stone, or Man's Work and God's in Missionary Endeavor."
