WESLEYAN MISSIONARY SOCIETY Tulograph, April 29th) Yesterday morning the annual toeoting of the Wesleyan Missionary Society, is held in Exer
er hall, under the presidency of the Earl of Shaftesbury, and was very largely attended." After the proceedings had been opened in the asmal super with prayer, the Rev. Dr. Hoole submitted the financial statement. According. to this the home receipts for the past year baya amounted to £110,73; the foreign, $37,000 add; making the total of £148,585. This was "greatly in advance of the ordinary income, the increase being mainly due to the large receipta from the hotas distriae, which exceeded those of last year by £2,300. The payments amount- ed to £147,89). Notwithstanding this antinfec tory statement for: the past year, the balance of an old debt due to the treasurer was still very large, mounting ₺ #1,087; but the worthy ductor was glad to say this was in rapid prucese cf liquidation. The Rev. George Parka 'next. read the report, which, embracing as it did a
