In twenty-two years the Freedmen’s Aid and Southern Education Society has expended in the work of Christian education in the South about $2,500,000. The present value of the property owned by the Society in the South is over $1,500,000. This includes lands—some of which have increased in value—school buildings, furniture, and libraries. More than one hundred thousand colored students have been in the various schools, and a reasonable estimate is, that the preachers and teachers in public and private schools, from among this multitude, have had under their influence fully one million of the youth and adults of the South. No words can adequately express the far-reaching and glorious results already achieved, and yet to flow, from this ever-widening current of intellectual and moral power. THE DUTY OF THE HOUR.
