WESL&YAN MISSIONARY SOCIETY,
g The anniversary of this society occurred
H on Monday, May 2d. The meeting was
held in Exeter Hall, and that immense room, !
which will hold not far from 4000 people
was crowded to excess. Sir Oswald Mosley
a member of parliament, and also a
member of the established church, was
chairman; and in his speech at the opening
of the business of the society, he made some
appropriate remarks on the zeal and energy ;
with which the society had prosecuted its j
missions. The report was read by the j
| Rev. Dr. Bunting. It was excellent, hut
entirely too long, exceeding indeed an hour
and a half. The survey which it took of the
missions of the society was very satisfactory.

tiie meeting by Messrs. Crawthcr and Far- j
iner, which, together with the amount col- !
looted, made the sum received on the oc- ;
casion, ?1861 7s. G. Some of the speeches
at this meeting were very good. An obvious
fruit at this meeting, and at many of,
tlie others, was the continued effort of the !
speakers to say smart things, with the view j
of exciting the audience. I am not an.
rncmv to wit, far from it; and I think that
Christians ought, in all their meetings, so to
act as not to offend the ever-blessed God by
extravagant and thoughtless mirth, and noisy
applauding of speakers. The English i
mee ingp, to my feelings, are greatly want- j
tug in solemnity and that devout spirit which j
is so necessary in religious assemblies, and
without which they are not likely to be prof- j
itablc. I do not make these remarks at
this place because they have greater application
to the meeting of which I have j
just spoken than any ofhers of all denomi- !
nations. The practice of which I speak, j
and the excess of which at any rate -I do 1
most decidedly condemn, is very prevalent !
?-* I ? ? T.' I . .1
in ttngusn puuuc meetings. it niigni raiucr
be said that it is universal. It is really i
amusing to see a Brinish audience coniposd !
of hundreds, and even tlrousands of individuals,
clapping their hands, striking their |
canes and umbrellas upon the floor, or :
^ramping with their feet, after the ex pros- j
sion of some striking tiling by u popuinr
speake. Not only the young, but also the j
old enter into it with all the heart. I have ;
seen them stamping, beating with their
canes, and clapping their hands, until their '
noble-looking solar faces grew even dark j
with excessive redness, if 1 may so speak.
This has a powerful influence, certainly, on j
the speaker. ,v j
I cannot take leave of this society without
saying that its labours have been emi- 1
nently blessed. It is now among the very !
first missionary societies, both for the ;
amount ofits receipts, and for the number I
and the success ofits missionaries. Indeed
I am not sure that it is not the very first
of the whole hand of blessed associations
which are labouring for the conversion of.
the world. !

* CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIKTY.
The annual meeting of this society oc- !
O V
curred the next day, at the same place, and j
was also excessively crowded. The earl of
Chichester presided. The report was read
by the Rev. Dr. Jcwett, one of the secretaries
of the society.
This society has 9 mission fields, more
than 100 missionaries?15 of whom were
sent out last year?near 5900 communicants,
converted from the heathen, and
tnore than 20,000 scholars in its schools.
Its receipts last year were ?69,582 4s. 8d;
and its expenditures were ?63,213 17s. 3d. i
The operations of the society are conduct- ;
cd infc a very prudent, noiseless, efficient |
manner. The Lord has smiled greatly
lipon if. It is cherished in the hearts, and
sustained by the prayers, of a very dear
portion of the children of God, connected
with the established church, and who arc j
the salt of that church, as well as 4<the salt j
of the earth."
Thp snnnlfnrs nf tliic meetino" were the 1
f ... ??o I
Bishop of Winchester, and his brother, the I
Bishop of Chester; the Rev. Dr. Duff, a '
missionary of the General Assembly of the
church of Scotland ; Professor Schofield,
of Cambridge University; Rev. J. W. Cunningham;
Marquis of Cholinondelcy; the !
Dean of Salisbury; Rev. Hugh Stavels; Cap- j
Tain Gardiner; Rev. Peter Roe, of Kilken- j
ny; and several others. j
Almost all these speeches were effective, j
Those of the Sumners, [the Bishops of;
Chester and Winchester,] were sound, for- !
cible, plain and good. Dr. Duff's was the !
most powerful of all. He is an able man, j
without doubt, any one will be convinced j
who will read his masterly speech, delivered j
at the meeting of the General Assembly of
Scotland last May. The address of Professor
Schoficld was very good. He spends
his Sabbath in preaching to the same parish
in the neighbourhood of Cambridge, to
which Henry .Vfartyn preached while he was
a fellow of that Institution. He stated
several affecting facts relating to that
good and great man, whose sun went so
dewn. He also gave an acc-.unt of I
a young man who has just gone out to In- a
,dia as a chaplain in the company's service, 5
who possesses Marty's spirit, who distin- t
guished himselfin th<? same college, and to
the same degree, that Martyn did; who has c
also been a fellow-of the same college; and t
who now goes forth to the same palmy \
plains of golden India, in the same capacity, c
May he be alike successful in the cause of c
his heavenly master. v
I learn from the report that was read at t
this meeting, that this society is about to f
turn much of its attention to China, and to j
send forth men to labour there, in the cause t
of the Lord. j ?

The annual meeting of this society was t
held 011 the evening of the same day, at j t
Finsbury Chapel. It was well attended, j (
John Labourche, Esq. presided, and the re- 1
port was road by the Rev. J. Blackburn. : c
The object of tiie society is to carrv the ' c
Gospel into the houses of the poor and ignor- j t
ant in this great city. It has been in exis- j a
fence eleven years. * x
The following is a brief view of its opera-, <.
* " ? 1 ? 1 _u_ I
tions Cur ng tho last \ear. it nau 111 an:>s
82 associations; 1SC2 gratuitous visitors; ^
40,398 families visited; 115 prayer meetings;
760 copies ofthe Scriptures were dis- (
tributcd; 1814 cases of temporal suffering .
have been relieved; 357*2 children have been ,
J*
gathered into Sunday and day schools.
These arc cheering results. Hut alas !;
in this great city of a million and a half of j
immortal souls, how much is there still to j
do ! Some astounding facts were brought .
to light by the report, as well as by the j
speakers who addressed the meeting. The i
following is an account of what is called 11
the Barbican district in London. If this is i *
any thing like a fair sample of the whole i.
city, then tilings arc in a bad enough state.
This section includes 1915 houses, 4557 jL
children, and G804 adults: in all, 113Gllr
souls. Of the (1,804 adults, only 629 were jr
accustomed to attend anyplace of worship !r
with anv degree of regularity, and more than j1
6000 seldom, if ever, go to any church, j1
Only 1238 children attend Sabbath or -dnv ' c
schools, and 1600, of an age to go, do not 1
frequent any school, 581 families were with- 1
out a copy of the lliblc, and of 816 shops *

prof: silliman on alcoholic drinks, i j1
Professor Silliman, of Yule College, in i j'
a letter to Dr. Edwards, dated Boston !
March 10, 1830, gives the following as to |
the effect of Alcoholic stimulus:
44 At- about lbrty-threc years of age, I j ^
suffered almost entire prostration of health, !1
in consequence of excessive labors and'^
afflictions from the sickness and death of!
several of my children. During several i
years in which I was sinking, 1 tried in vain, \ ^
under medical direction, the most approved
forms of stimulus, joined with the most nu- 1
tricious and varied diet. Vhcn at length, j
my powers were almost broken down, 1 j "
was persuaded by a friend to abandon the j
use of wine, and every other alcoholic ;
stimulus, and to depend upon a small j *
quantity of bread, rice, and a little animal j '
muscle, water, milk or other mild diluent j J
drinks, omitting every thing that contains 3
alocho). Within a few weeks my health 0
bewail to mend, and at the end of one vear
r ' , r
I was able to return to arduous duties, dc- j 1
mantling constant employment to both j
body and mind. My frame naturally vig- j n
ourous and clastic, gradually recovered I h
its tone, and now, thirteen vears after the c
1 ^1
period of my greatest depression, I am able , J
upon, a simple, but common diet, consist-; J(
ing of the most useful articles of food, ta. j ^
ken without any use of alcoholic stimu-1 d
lus, to constant labor in my profession, I j*
with much public speaking, and I sustain "
no inconvenience except the fatigue which a
sleep removes, as in the case of other ! 0
healthy persons. i
UI was from childhood constitutionally d
?
prone to bleeding at the nose, and some- li
times to an alarming degree. After the h
recovery of my health, 1 allowed myself o
to use with moderation the bottled cider jt<
at dinner only. After abstaining from it h
f >t a few weeks on a long journey, (because f<
cider of a good quality could not be ob- j>
tained at the taverns.) mv nose bleeding j n
ceased, and with it the vertigoes, and con- ! b
fused and uncomfortable leelings of the j tl
head and nerves by which I had frequent- t<
Iv been troubled. Thinking that cider h
might have been concerned in causing ! h
these effects 1 have never returned to its ti
use, and for nearly three years since 1 j b
omitted cider, I have had no serious re-! h
currencc of these afflictions. ; w
"P, S. In two or three cases within my i
knowledge nose-bleeding has ceased by the : ?
omission of cider. In one of these the j,
bleeding was excessive and dangerous.? jn
The individual last referred to is a very tj
athletic man, of full habit and sanguine u
temperament.

[From the Naval Maguaine.] < c
A NAVAL REMINISCENCE. j tl
"All of which I saw, and part of which I was." j w
In the year 1804, when Preble, as Com- j rj
modore of the American squadron in the u
Mediterranean, was gaining glorv, before o
Tripoli, alike for himself,"his officers and w
crew9, and for his country, Lieutent Coin- s<
mandant Richard Somers, had command y
under him of the Nautilus, a schooner of p
14 guns. During the several fights which p
had previously occurred with the enemy, le
this officer had shotvn great bfavery as h
commander of gunboat No. 1, and now fr
suggested to the Commodore that a hap- w
py result might possibly he obtained by p
converting the ketch Intrepid, a captured e<
craft of about 75 tons?the identical ves- n
sel with which the gallant Decatur had o
boarded, recaptured, and burned the frig- h
te Philadelphia?into a tire ship, and j i
end her into a harbour under the walls of I t
lie. Bashaw's castle, in direct contact with I
fie marine force of the Tripolitans. This ; r
nring "and highly dangerous enterprise i;
eing determined upon, Somers, with I <
rhoin it had originated, received the or- ; <
lers?to which he was thus entitled?to \i
onduct it; and the necessary preparations i <
icre promptly made by him. Fifteen j I
housands pounds of powder were first i (
ilaced loosely in the hold of the ketch, j 1
rid upon this, two hundred and fifty thir- i
een-inch fuseed shells, with a train 1
llached from cabin and fore peak.? I ?
)nlv one oilieer, the talented and lamented
lieutenant Henry Wads worth, brother to
he present Commodore Wadsworlh, was
o accompany him, and only fourteen vol- ,
intecr seamen were to compose his crew. <
All things were now in readiness, c.\ept
the selection of the men,?for it
a me to this at last, every man on hoard j
he Nautilus having volunteered tor the ,
'I U.., it itntArminPfl I '
crvice. amis u'-iit, 11 >?n.-j vn.il/inM..-- i
without delay, to attempt the eaterprisi-!o j
uccced or to perish. Two nights succesively
did the Intrepid move; but owing to !
iaffiing winds, nothing could bo nccomlished.
These failures and an unusual j
novemcnt in the harbor after dark on the [
bird night, led Somers to believe that the j
uspicions of the enemy had been excited, i
ml that they were on the look-out. It I
ras the general impression, that their;,
owdcr was nearly exhausted; and so j
urge a quantity as was on board the ketch, J
fcaptured, would greatly tend to piolr.xct !
he contest. Before setting off he nd- i ]
Iressed the crew on the subject, telling j'
hem "that no man need accompany him,} j
- -1 i A ^ *
vho had not come 10 me resolution 10
?low himself up, rather than he captured; ;
nd that such was fully his own detcrmi- |
lation!" Three cheers was the only |'
eply. The gallant crew rose, as a single J
nan, with a resolution of yielding up their '
ives sooner than tosuriendcr to their enc- j ]
nies;?while each stepped forth and begged
as a favor, that he might be pcrmited
o apply the mafcfi! It was a glorious j
nornent, and made an impression on the '
learts of all witnessing it, never to be for- '
;ottcn. All then took leave of every ofli- j <
er, and of every man, in the most a (Tec-11
innate manner, with a shake of the hand, j 1
s if they already knew their fate was i
loomed: and one and another, as thev !
assed over the side to take their post on I
toard the ketch, might be heard, in their i
?wn peculiar manner, to cry out, "I say, j
lam Jones, I leave you my blue jacket I
lid trousers, stowed away in my bag;" !'
nd"Bsll Curtis, you may have thctarpau- :
in bat and Guernsey lroek, and them pet-'
icoat trousers, that I got in Malta?and ,
nind, boys, when you get homo, give a j
ood account of us!" In like manner!
id each one thus make his oral will, to !
rhich the writer was witness, and which
last will and testament," he caused to be j
xecuted to the very letter. It was about <
ine o'clock, on the 4th of September, j
S04, that the third and last atttempt was
lade. The Nautilus had been ordered *
) follow the Intrepid closely in, to pick <
p and bring out her boat's crew, in case
ley should succeed in the exploit. Ilence. (
lough it was very dark, we never lost
igtit of her, and bad been directed by the ?
rst lieutenant?the late gallant Washing>n
Reed?who commanded in the absnce
of Somcrs, to keep constant watch
f her for this purpose, with a night-glass.
At the end ofan hour, about 10 o'clock, a
'. M., while I was engaged in this duty, *
ic awful explosion took place. For a J
loment, the flash illumined ihe whole a
eavens around, while the tefific con
ussion shook every thing far and near,
'hen all was hushed again, and every obict
veiled in a darkness of double gloom,
hi board the Nautilus, the silence of j
eath seemed to pervade the entire crew; ut
quickly the din of kettle drums, beatig
to arms, with the noise of confusion nd
alarm, was heard from the inhabitants
n shore.
To aid in the escape of the boat, an or- i
er was now given by lleed to "show a 1
glit"?upon the appearance of which, J
undrcds of shot, from an equal number (
f guns, of heavy calibre, from the bat-' i
iries came over and around us. But we (
eeded them not: one thought and one (
icling had possession of our souls, the .
reservation of Somers and his crew ! As
loment after moment passed by, without
* -? .--i j _r
ringing witn u me precuncerteu Mguui ui
leboat, the anxiety on board became in:nse
: and the men with lighted lanterns,
ung themselves over the vessel, till their
ends almost touched the water?a posion,
in which an object on its surface, can
e seen farthest in a dark night?with the
ope of distovering something which
ould give assurance of its safetv.
D *
Still, no boat came, and no singal was
iven: and the unwelcome conclusion was
ist forced upon us, that the fearful alterative,
of blowing themselves up rather
tan be captured?so bravely determined
pon, at the outest of the enterprise, had
sen as bravely put in execution. The
ict, that the Iuterpid, at the time of the
(plosion, had not proceeded as far into
te harbor by several hundred yards, as it
as the intention of Captain Somersto car- $
t her, before setting her on fire confirmed , *
5 in this apprehension; still we lingered j
i ihe spot till broad daylight?though i .
e lingered in vain?in the hope that I
ime one at least of the number, might
st be rescued by us, from a floating _
lank or spar, to tell the tale of his coinunions*
fate. To our astonishment, we
arned next day, that Lieut. Israel, a gal- "
nt youth, who hud been sent with orders
om Com. Preble to Soiners, after he !
as under way in the ketck, had aecom-1
inied him in the expedition and had shar- j
1 his destiny. Such was the end of the
able fellows, who a few days only before,
i board their own gunboat No. 1, had
?aten six of the enemy's flwt, of equal 1
orcc with themselves, immediately under
he guns, and within pistol shot of a shore
lattery; an achievement accomplished
inly, in their peculiar position, by backing
istern, and keeping up nil incessant fire of
ranvass bags filled with 1000 musket balls
iacli, till our gallant Commodore, in the j
Constitution," stood in to take the fire j
)f the battery, and thus enable us, under
lis cover, to obey the order "to come out
action,''1 a signal which had already been
Iving more than an hour,and which Somers |
^ O ?
it first would not, and at last (from the j
fierceness of the fight) could not sec.
