The intelligence furnished in the report of the Board of Managers in reference to all Ihe Missions under their charge, with the exception of that to France, was that of the most pleasing and encouraging character. The informatiou of the Rev. Mr. Malcolm, who had been sct as agent to Asia, for tie . purpoie of looking mnto the state of the Mis sions in that regi-v, gave full satisfaction. lie is abont to prevpare a volume for the press, in which he will give an account of his labors. lie is appointed additional Sec retary to the Board, for the ptrpose of' be ing employed in travelling through tihe U. States, to excitd a more Missionary spirit among the people,. that greater efficacy may be imparted to Missionary eilrts at home and abroad. In all the deliberations of the Body, the most delightful harmony of feel ing and unity of sentiment and purpose pre vailed.

Three of the estahlishmernts for printing -those at Sudiya, Tavoy, anil Bankok" have been founded recently. The first primting executed at Bangkok, was in time aututn of 1,36.

Er eess of ex penditures above -?-eccipts, $44,340 71. Womis of the Board.-The missions to Siam, the Chinese, the Teh>ogoos, and to several ladiant tribes, not to omentiion others that have regnestedl aid, are in urgent ineed of an immledinte reinfatreent of misiona - rhes. Seem nI canmdidates for mnissionary service have been approved biy time Boardl, and, if adequate funtds were providead, wo'ukd -be sent forth to their waork helbmre the close of time current year. Requer-ts have also been madle for four nddaitiontal printing es taliishiments. ThIe Board have not the meatns to meet these claims. Their funds arc exrhaust'ed. If mnot replenisherd utMEDt Ar.r.Y, they wtill he constrainmed to consult. not f'or thme enhargcemt of the missionis. but for time least disastrous method of their re --duction. The inquiry must be, WVhat mis sions, shall lie closed, w'hat misionarmmies shall he cnlled home ? The Gaid of Mis sions, time Grat IIendh of theo Church, wvho laid down his life for his pieople. graciously mtterpose, give to all oinr associatiotns and chmurchecs a larger measure of hmis spirit, amid constronm them bmy his love to give even ?as they have received! The above view exhiits an atnounat of' labor umnd stteccss, thmat ecoucmmrages the fur itmer proscention aof the benevolemnt designs so fatvorabhly carriod otn..with an energy, the anost unmantd. Bt the fundas of the Board ... are exhtausted. To time chuirches of the Most fligh, the ayes of time Board are torn aed with anxiot' emqtiry? A.sd shall- they be turned ii Va in? Will any. who love tha Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity, indulgo the N thought of withholding his contributions e from this noble cause? Will lie not rather Pl increase the amount or his honerneiions for its advancement? What thonih the pecu- I< ninry relations of the people lie emborrnsed and in some cases severe! Is this an excuse for God's people to withhold the breath of life from those that are ready to perish for lack of knowled1ge? If retrenehiment he T entered into, let it first reduce the needlless expenditure in furniture and dress mid other modes of living, which injure their thought less owners, whilst they diminish the streams of beneficence. Let christians de ny themselves many of tne indulgencies and luxuries of life, whilst the cause of God deninuds the aidls,which the mniey expend- fo ed in these, wotild so naterially aflird to the h benevolent effrms of the present day. Let them remeinher,'that, whatever they pos- to sesq, comes from the liberal hands of their gt bounteous benefactor, and that therefore m a larre portion of what is thus grneionsly given, qhould he cnploved in promot ing the Kitwoom of this bounteous Bienefactor.- r ''Freely ye have received, frecly give."

A MI.NERAL Nosr.-The Medicnl Jour nail or Bositn. gives an account of a new Fashioned artificial nose, that has been made by Dr. Harwood, a successful and eminent dentist ofthat city, which can hardly be dis tmnuishc on pretty close examination,from a genuine nasal organ. His patient was a young man of Worcester County, Mass., who lost his nose by fire at a very early age and who visited Bo'ton with the view ofun dergoing the Taiiacotian operation. There heing some difliculty in the way of this, he was indnced to alilow Dr. Iarwood to attempt a plan altogether new in this coun trv-oconstrncting an artificial jose, of'a tnineral sulestance commonly used in dental surgeoy for artificial gumins The ingenuity orthis genteman has surpassed the expee tations of those who have watched his be nevolent exertions. The new nose is su perior in appearance to those nsually con strictetd by the Talliacotian method; and tie natient inas been spared the protracted sTerinogs that attend it.
