The reports from the Society's missionaries coulain sevend illustrations of the grentuoss of China's need of the Gospel. "Devil-vor- ship," one writes, "has still a temendous hold upon the Chinese." Another tells how sisk man was placed in front of the idols. in ample, and gongs were beaten and inceive offered to procure his recovery, and speaks of signs of idolatry on every hand.” And a third, the Rev. H. H. Taylor of ion-chub, mentions certain cases which

had tume yoder his notice, showing how little conception there is among the Chinese of the sacredness of human life. At the same time, it is impossible to entertain any doubt that a unique opportunity for missionary efforts is given af the present
