as they now do, that our doctrine of the Way of Salvation was correct, and conformable to the Holy Scriptures. This avowal alone does not indeed satisfy us : they must attain to a new life-to a conversation in the light. We may preach to them upon the subject, but we cannot give them the Spirit: therefore we must proceed, with patience and faith, to sow in hope, and leave it to the Lord to bring

on, in His own time, the harvest.

Divine Service in the Arabic Language is held regularly every Sunday. The auditory consists chiefly of the pupils of our Seminary, and the larger boys. of the Day School, together with their Teachers: some other persons also occasionally attend, and boys who had formerly been at our school. During the past year we have gone through the Acts, and nearly the whole of the Epistle to the Romans, which are expounded homiletically, taking a chapter every Sunday.

The following attestation to the benefit of the Rev. J. R. T. Lieder's practice in Medicine is also from Mr. Krusé; together with an allusion to a subject which gains increasing interest in this country; that, namely, of Temperance Societies. Mr. Krusé writes:

The circumstance above mentioned, that the prejudices of the people against us have, to a remarkable degree, given way, is particularly owing to the endeavours of Mr. Lieder; who, by his medical practice, has not only formed, during the past year, a number of new acquaintances and removed much prejudice, but has also, here and there, prepared the way for our confirming the Word of the Gospel, which he has thus had opportunity to proclaim: where his conversation has found reception, there likewise we have been favourably received.

But it is difficult for these people to get quite free: the yoke of the seductive priests will not easily be cast off; for these Jesuits have taken a firmer hold of their prey. The Coptic Priests made much less effort to oppose our labour: one reason is, their great indolence and ignorance in their own religion; and, on the other hand, they have less to fear from us, on account of the stupidity and drowsiness of their people, who, great and small, do not care about their own, much less about any other religion. This dulness, both of understanding and heart, is probably attributable to their excessive

use of ardent spirits; which habit, it seems, they have cherished from their fathers, and is entailed upon their children. Such are the terrible fruits of intemperance! A Temperance Society, as in America and England, would be of immeasurable advantage here.

From the Journal of Mr. Müller

we also give a few particulars, which strikingly exhibit the progress of Religious Inquiry, and even of Christian Feeling, in this sphere of Missionary Labour.

Jan. 12, 1834-Two hopeful Boys who left the Boarding School, very much against our wish, came back to be again received, because they had been disappointed in their worldly expectations. Only one of them was received, as we doubted the sincerity of the other.

Jan. 15-Had a visit from a Catholic Missionary of the Propaganda of Rome, who, with two others, is destined for China. The Superior of the Convent de Terra Santa of Caïro came with him, in order to watch our conversation: the Missionary, who spoke German, did not, therefore, venture to enter into religious conversation.

Jan. 20-Had a long conversation with a young Swiss artist, who came here to preach the doctrine of St. Simon. I was surprised to hear him quote the same passage of the Gospel of St. John (xiv. 16, 17) as the Mahomedans do, in order to prove that our blessed Lord and Saviour predicted the coming of St. Simon. Le Père Infantin, being the successor of St. Simon, is therefore, in their opinion, the Comforter and the Spirit of Truth, which leadeth them into all Truth. I was shocked to hear him speak of Christ and Mahomed as being equally inspired, and both as having the same end in view, viz. the civilization of mankind. But St. Simon is called, as he says, to complete what both Christ and Mahomed began and left unfinished. I strongly expressed my horror at these doctrines, and endeavoured to show him the eternal consequences of believing a lie." At the same time, I could not help intimating to him that I did not wish to see him a second time in my house; for we must avoid profane and vain babblings and oppositions of science, falsely so called, which some professing have erred concerning the faith. There was an article in the "Moniteur Egyptien," in which the Gospel was

recommended as the best means for civilizing mankind, in opposition to the apostles of St. Simon, who were represented as a set of people who go about to beg alms, and who deserve to be pitied rather than attended to in what they teach. It is remarkable to read such observations in a Paper published by Mohammed Ali.

Feb. 2, 1834-Had School Examination; which gave me more pain than pleasure, as I found that many boys who read in the Gospel do not understand what they read. It requires very much time and patience to instruct the poor

and bewildered children in the most

simple doctrines of the Bible: what they hear one day is forgotten the next: I am obliged, therefore, to repeat the leading points of the preceding lesson before I can begin another. They, however, have a good memory for the things of this world: the fables of their church, and the traditions of men, too, they keep very tenaciously in their memories; whereas the History and Doctrines of the Bible cannot so easily find a place in their hearts and minds.

Feb. 10-Several grown-up people attended, to-day, the Bible Lesson in the Schools, to whom I endeavoured to show the whole Way of Salvation; and it seems that what they heard went home to their hearts; for Michael, the Teacher, told me that they wept, after I left them. March 20-To-day I found an elderly man sitting in the School, and reading the Bible. He is the father of two chil

dren in the Day School. As I was telling the children the History of St. John the Baptist, and how he began by preaching repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, I took occasion to ask him what was meant by repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, and was pleased to find that he was not far from the Kingdom of God. He and the Teacher repeated to the children what I had told them. In the evening, the Teacher goes to the house of this old man, in order that they may speak together on religious subjects.

The Committee of the Church Missionary Society having voted a sum of money toward the building of a Place of Worship for the use of the Missionaries and their hearers in Caïro, the following successful commencement of the plan is stated by Mr. Müller :—

On Easter-day we opened the Chapel. We had a congregation of thirty English, among whom was the British Consul-General. We obtained more subscriptions than we expected. None of the expense of the Chapel will fall upon the Society. The Mahomedans are pleased to see no image in our Church: but last Sunday, a Levantine lady was at Divine Service, who was a little surprised not to find some Saint; and after looking around the walls for some favourite image, she made the cross and sat down. We have now Divine Service, every Sunday, in Arabic, German, and English.
