Our readers will find in this number of the MISSIONARY a copy of our present Constitution, and also one of that proposed by the Committee appointed for that purpose at our last Annual Meeting. * * * * * SUPT. SALISBURY has in press a pamphlet containing the new uniform course of study of the A. M. A. schools, with explanatory comment and general suggestions to teachers. It will be ready for distribution to the teachers some time in October, and will, it is believed, be of great utility to them in the partial reorganization of work proposed. * * * * * THE WARNER INSTITUTE, located at Jonesboro, East Tennessee, was formed by the Friends, under the lead of Yardley Warner, for whom it was named. The building, of brick, upon a fine crest in that hill country, was formerly a ladies’ college for white people. Friend Warner having conducted the institute for several years, proposed to transfer it to this Association. This has been done, and the school is yet to carry along the good work begun by the founder. His many friends in this country and in England, who have aided him in the enterprise, may rest assured that the institute will be kept true to its original mission. Mrs. J. B. Nelson, who had formerly been employed by Mr. Warner, has been made principal, with the needed assistants. * * * * * THE programme for a series of twenty-eight missionary meetings, which our agent for New Hampshire and Vermont had planned to be held in those States in August and September, under the auspices of this Association was carried out, in due time, with great completeness and success, the last of the course being held Sept. 28, afternoon and evening, in Manchester, N.H. The number of sessions, counting those held in different places on the Sabbath, was fifty-one. In almost every case the attendance, especially at the second or evening session, was large and enthusiastic. The addresses were varied, able and interesting. The brief but touching story of Philip Page, who often told in broken English, in a pleasing way, how and why he came to this country, what he had found here, what he is doing, and how he hopes to go back some day and tell his parents and others in Africa what Christ the Lord can do for them, and the address of Rev. Joseph E. Smith, graduate of Atlanta University, now pastor of the First Congregational Church in Chattanooga, were always listened to with much interest. The latter told of his bitter slave life, of his trials and struggles and triumphs, in coming over from bondage into freedom, from the slave pen and the auction block to the school, the college, the pulpit and pastorate; addresses were also made by Prof. Thos. N. Chase of Atlanta, Dr. Woodworth, of Boston, and by Rev. Mr. Grout, who conducted the meetings.
