Interesting Lecture.
Rev. J. B. HARTWELL, a. China
Missionary, entertained a large and* in?
telligent congregation at thc Baptist
Church, on Sunday evening last, for an
pour or more. His sketch of Chinese
character, worship, faith, forma, ceremo
[?ies, &c, was deeply interesting, and
lis familiarity with these, and with the
general Literature of the teeming Celes?
tial Empire, teemed a sustaining proof
of hi? assumption that the Ch;aese are
SD ignorant and illiterate people. Io
this respect. Mr. HARTWELL expressed
astonishment at the statements from
time to time made in the religions and
secular press of thia country.
