We would continue to remind pastors and churches of our Leaflets, which
we will be happy to furnish, on application, to those taking collections
for our Association.

The _Daily Standard-Union_, of Brooklyn, is a good judge. It says:

THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY for April, published by the American Missionary
Association, New York, is full of information useful and edifying to all
interested in domestic missions.

The "Student's Letter" found on another page is worth attention. The
writer, Rev. Spencer Snell, gives a modest and yet vivid picture of his
struggles for an education, and he is now--we say it for him, as he does
not--the able and acceptable pastor of our growing church in Birmingham,
Alabama. We wish in a quiet way to suggest to our friends in the North
that "it pays" to spend money to educate such men.

Rev. James Wharton, the evangelist, who has been efficiently preaching
to the American Missionary churches in the South this winter, has left
this country for England, where he will remain until the first of
October, when he will return again to his specific work in which the
churches have been greatly blessed. The churches which he has visited,
and which have added to their numbers through his ministration, are
Louisville, Ky., Sherwood, Nashville and Memphis, Tenn., Athens,
Florence, Mobile and Montgomery, Ala., Jackson and Tougaloo, Miss., and
New Orleans, La.
