Foreign jissions.-According to or de<,Rev. J. B. Taylor read the report of dhe Foreign Mission Board, of which he is corresponding secretary.--From the reading of this document, we gath ered.that the Board was formed little mor*jhan a year since, and is a separ ate Suthern organization growing out -of the declaration of non fellowship with sieve holders; made by the Board 'of the Union lioted at Boston. ~1t was form cdy says'the report, with mingled feel. ing of sorrow and joy : they lamented the necessity of separation, but rejoiced at-the imrness with which the South .anet it. The difficulties to be encoun ,tered by 3a -new Board,, and the great idistance to the missionary posts, did not peitmit the Board t9'liope to ~do more .thtan to make arrangements the first year for the comnmencemuent of operations. They.looked with gratitude to God for the success they had met, and relied upon him for an increash of the means and eticiency of the. oarl Upon a corresprndence with tlie )s ton Board,the body derlined to transfer to the Southern Society, any of the Misr - aionaries sent out by ir: They-were urg letting the missionaries select the board' to Which they would attach themselves. Reflecting that the claiming of property would be the cause of dissensions and difficulty, the Southern Board accompa ny' thoir - report -with. teboietion,. in, tvliioshey declare that it is inexpedient to make any claims, the one Boardlon the. othei,for property or debts. Great difficulty,las.accurred relative to obtain i4g a corresponding secretary.-Rev. Mr. Mallory, the. frst. resigned in con I sequence of bad health-the appoint ment tias fendered to ethers and declin ed ; ,and the Rev. Mr. Taylor consent ed in the emergency to art. The Board recommend afi appoint;ent .th;t may be considered pernmantent. " The South ern Missionary Journal," a monthly pa per, has been gotten up under the aus tiices of the Board, and is commended to the support tf the Church. The financial exhibit shbws that there has been received the past year $11,733 32; and there has been expended in the satne time $2,231 09; balance on hand 9,504 3, exclusive of $ shares of bank stock. \ Trhe report speaks of time tine prospedt open for nmssionalry labors in China aind in Africa. The board, have engaged the services of Messrs. S. C. Clopton und 'Pearcy, whlo wvill sail in thme course of thme present month for China. Rfv. J.L. Shuck, who returned from Canton a few toonths' since, withm a native preach er, Yong Seen Sang, hamve bothm connect. ed themselves with thme Southern Board, and will sail in September for China, to sesume their Missionary laboirs. The Board expmess themselves contident of success, declare their deternuiation to spare no ef'ort in their labors to advance the missionary' cause. They have not vielded to despondency, and strike that woerd out of their vocabulary. The Treasurer of the 'Doard 'of Fo reign Missions read his report, corres pnding hn its financial exhibit with the sttement 'in the repor t of the Board; with the addition that about $6,000 have bene received since time account was siade upomi tihe 1st inst.; 'so that with ie.$9,500 then on hand, there is nlow a balance o~f about $1,500. The con trihtidons of last year have been as 'fol lows':. Georgia $i920,28; Virginia$3, 700iS4; Sooth Carolina $2660,87; Al abtus $41,10; lississipp '$280.83; W.

He wore a blue gown and a cap, and his hair was plaited, and hung down in a very long quieu behind.-He received the saluta tions of the President and others, with evident cordiality and a very lively sense of the feeling exhibited towards him. He held a fan which he used with a grace worthy of a lady. His head was, raised several inches above his real statue by very thick cork soles to his fantastical shoes. His finger nails were about half an inch long and care fully shaped. le was far from being awkward, and after the first imptestsiop of the novelty of his adornnments a glance at his face will give a prepossession in his favor.] President Johnson very affectionately addressed both Mr. Shuck and the Chl. nese. He spoke of the wonderful or dinance of Providence, by ivhich a country so extensive, so striage in the character and pursnits of its people, so benighted, so lung shut up, had been at last opened to us, and wa had been per mitted to send missionaries there to bc copy that important field. They had read, he said to Mr. Shuck, with deep interest, the accounts-of his labors and trials in his missionary pursuits.-To die Sou:hern division it was peculiarly pleasing to have him there, and to ae gard him as a missionary under their auspices. In behalf of the body he gave Mr. S, the tight hand of fellowship and christian recogp ition, and invoked the blessing of God upon him and his labors. To Yong Seen Sang, the President also very bordidlly extended the right hand of fellowship. By the grace of God he had become a spiritual brother, and he gave him a token.ofrecognition s such,. invoking for him and his country the blesiing. f Heaven. Mr. Shdck briefly ra sponded -that his feelings would not allow him to say more than to expreiss iis gratification in mm !ing in the devotions and deliberations f so many distinguished and pious men. It would be .pilasng to him, at some suitable time,..to.comunicate any: infor ne+, ienlsoassion7't iive-rto time: wptland of darkness, which hiid so diey been, and was so soon again to be the scene of his labors. - Yong Seen Saing, (Mr. Shucli acting as intergtter,),rdspon.lehd in a short ad ress, stating that ftrmerly he was a voishipper of idols,. and knew nothing of the true God. lit: was thankful to those whom hp addressed for sending. the gospel to China. Their ministers of the Lord Jesus, have evinced so much in erest in China, that it would cause him, vhe lie ret orned home, to devote him s-If with all his ability to the preach.ng of the gospel,.and instructing the peo ple. lie spoke of the harmony that ex ised among the disciples of Christ. They were one here, they would be one in heaven. lie had one request to make of the ministers of the gospel, and that was in their prnyers, niight and morn ing, to remember China. The scene was a most impressive one. I Rev. Mr. [Hiton immediately called for the singing of the new missionary hymn, the following two verses of' which-were sung, while the brethren shook hands with the nmissiontaries, manny being mov, Hail! sweetest, dhearest tie th~at binds Our glowing hcarts ia one; HailH sacred hope, that tunes our moitds To harmony di.vine. It is the hope, the blissful hope, Which Jesus' grace has given! The hope whena days and years are .past, We all shall meet in Heaven.

We hope to meet again. :1t is the hope, the blissful hope, Which .J esus' grace has given. Prayer by Rev. Mr. Buck. On motion of Mr. H-artwvell, Rev.

The Committee on the .Chisaa Mjission, through its chairman the Rev. Dr. Ful% her, ma:de its report, anid is as follows: Ta.e Committee on the China Mission can scarcely employ the, cahn language suitable to a report, in speal.irng of this department of our noble enerprize. Neve.r before has .there been ,presented to tho eye of Christian philanthropy such an inviting fi.Id fo: labor. The history and character of the Chi ne(se) have been to little studied, and ought at once to engage the attention of every member of our Churchies.- Cen turies ago, an Almighty lhad had in torposed, and, arresting the victorious arms of Tatme~lane, .thus rescued this people fronm the degrading curse of Mo. hiamniedanuism. .A fte: warr, when dse ambition of Rlome seemed about to en slave them in the chains of Poperyg God again interposed and frus:rated .Je suitism by its own drtp'licitj. rate events htave conspired to b'reali dowrn tat str nge.policy wvhich hiter to sealed up China from the iniluence. of the truth, and to throw open her teeming millions to the zeal and love of Chris tians. And lasfhy, the act of toleration has, within a few montiis, aecured for the cross advantages iich are really denied jtem on the continent of Ch~lris tian Europe, so nmiscafled. In the severe mortality of the Confu. clan ,Philosophy-your Missionaries wvill find a source of Phiarasaical pride to the China-man.

The United States have advantages which. we -do not rposaess.;for. sustaining ydur hatural and native ihdis.ry,. in the manufacture of wleat, maize, rice, cotto, tobacco, pork, &c.., &c.; and it is not important to you whether they are expor ted as wheat, 'maize, rice, &c., or. trans. nitted into cotton, pork or. tobacco.-. hatever pays you best is your intereet. he words "native industry' haye been very rmuch abused. as applied to the tna king of manufactured goods only.

There is no doubt that we can manufac ture many articles cheaper than y..ca, and it is equally incontrovtilyle ,th't you can supply:.ats wath miuh- that we cannot btdai elsewhere so advantageously. Now the question to be answered is sim ply this--Is it our interest *r spec~tiyely to take from each other such aftieles.s we can import cheaper thtan we can make or produce thempat ifoje ? I cannot con ceive that there will be a.menmentous hes itation in answering .i the aifrmative, Neither,ft thinic, will it be disputed that the merg.1e can induce other nations to talke what we can advantageously prodgtee and spare witb advantage, it is our inter est to do so.; and .I. see no way so effect ual tc accomplish this erid as byremoving alpotecttng and prohibitory duties. if 6'~64 nations are obstinaite and will not recprocate mutual .benefits, do not let us aggravate the evil and puaiisiihourse~liesbly retaliaiing and depriving ourselves of many of the necesstties of life by high dutie, which ct..be extent'the-duties are imposed n~ust produce this effect, as it costs us melabor to obtain and supply otir ants.
