This Church, the youngest of the large denominations, and last to enter the foreign field, has done some effective service. A few weeks since some fears were entertained that from a single point where success was not satisfactory, the partially defeated forces might be, for a time, withdrawn. Such fears were groundless, and the orders are for an advance all along the lines. The little company in Bulgaria have struggled under many disadvantages, but will be reinforced, and the work go on. At the late meeting of the General Committee, in New York, the annual appropriations were advanced to $750,000, in the confidence that the church will meet the demand. The Home Missions of this church are numerous. There are reported 2,381 missionaries in the home fields, and more could be profitably employed in communities unable of themselves to furnish an adequate support. The aggregate of the border missions shows an increase in membership, and of church property. The missionary aid given to feeble churches and to establish churches where none existed, combined with the efforts of other organizations, is doing a work whose value can hardly be over-estimated. The Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church are in fifteen nations. A larger number of missionaries are in India than in any other country. The summarized statistics show: Foreign missionaries and wives 225 Native ordained preachers 246 Native preachers not ordained 187 Native local preachers 317 Native workers in Woman’s For. Mis. Society 291 Foreign teachers 34 Native teachers 521 Members 29,095 Probationers 9,984 The school system, both for secular and theological education is well organized, and doing a good work. Churches and conferences are organized as in this country. PRESBYTERIAN BOARD.
