From Pemberton Valley, Port Maria, an . applicant writes as follows:-- ~The two Townships, in behalf uf which the application is made, contains a population of 2,000, not more than fifteen or twenty of whom are white people. The Parish Church at Port "Maria is seven miles off; the Retreat Church it seven miles in the opposite direction, with very bad roads to both places. "The number of children is about 200, of whom half might be expected to attend the school at its commencement. There is a house on the property, with 7 acres of land advantageously situated, in almost every respect, for a free resi- dence, and upon which a school-house could readily be put up, as thereis plenty of hardwood 'which would be furnished gratis on the spot. The school-house might then be used for Divine Service. 'The Proprietors of Pemberton Valley pro- pose to give £30 per anuum--to give the house as a free residence, together with seven acres of jand. What the Proprietors of two neighbouring estates, the House of Assembly, and the Vestry may do, I have not yet ascertained." : DOMINICA. In reference to Dominica, your Committee are still anxious to render assistance to the labours of the Rev. M. M. Dillon, the Rector of Roseau, and to testify their sympathy with him in the arduous undertaking wherein he has been so greatly blessed. They grieve to learn, that only one Protestant clergyman js found in an island so densely populated,-- -where, too, the Church of Rome has its 'Vicar-Apostolic, twelve priests, and number- less inferior emissaries. ie They desire also to express their obligations to Mr. Dillon, for aiding the Society at home by advocating its cause on several important occasions, and rendering it essential service. "We further object to this "branch," as affording opportunity to those who might - manage or mismanage it, to engraft upon it, features akin to Yankee colonization. In fact, we have been told, as before said, by the Missionary in charge, that it will offer facilities for training up preachers and teachers for Africa; a feature of the plan that never occurred to the pious mind of the Hon. Mrs. Kinnaird; but which the Rev. 'Mr. Dillon informs us, originated with him- 'self; and which, with the other objects, is to be carried out by co-operation of a Mr Sun- mer and otner gentlemen in New York. What has the Colonial Chureh and School Society to do with men in Yankeedom? Are not Englishmen sufficient to carry on the " pious" work of their societies without intermeddling by men in the States, espe- cially work designed for the colored people ? We confess to a fear of some bad design, whether seen by the Missionary in this case or not. White men have no schools for training men for Africa as the " great" ob- ject, and yet seldom can a school be got up for colored people, but their fatherland 'must be attended to--they are suddenly and all of them, to become teachers and preachers, and such like. We are Ameri- 'cans, and cannot in common reason be sup- posed to have other than a common interest in Africa,--we should do something else besides teach, preach, and be servants; and as the schools of the Province, of every - 'grade, are open to us in every locality where the whites are not either stupidly besotted with rum and ignorance, or where Yankee interests have not superceded British, we should be permitted to go without threats or persuasion to. those established or to be established, especially that we may have the opportunity of learning how much we 'are needed away from home. If colored men are to be trained to teach and preach, why not let them decide without suggestions from this one or that, as to, the field of fu- 'ture operations? Or why may they not Jabor in Canada, after having " served their time." "If the teachers are not yet prepared for Africa, it would be vastly better to estab- ish the Normals Schools in Africa at once, and train natives to the work at home, and suffer colored Americans to help make up the future of this continent; but that would not be "advisable." By this new plan, by the time the training is over, the public mind will probably be formed to further African schemes. It occurred tu us, that Jamaica and Demarara, é&c., being nearer home, might have served as_ trial fields to the future colored missionaries; but we were told that they are well supplied _with teachers, preachers, &c. However, 'the above extracts from pages 67 and 68, will, we think, satisfy any candid mind that there is nothing so revolting in a true picture & of the colored people of Canada, as drawn a, we by men now struggling to elevate the West ndians, and they cannot fail to convince them of the importance of missionary ef- forts that will have in view the welfare of the country in which they may operate, as well as countries thousands of miles off. : : x © lo, the instruments will q The fever is still raging in Savannah, Georgia, all the hotels and principal busi- ness places are closed.

WILIINS III NOI NPI NOL DIN DN PPA ALND For the Provincial Freeman. The Colored Citizens of Toronto, met in general meeting at the second Wesleyan Church, Richmond St., on Wednesday eve- ning, Sept. 20th, 1854. Wilson R. Abbott, Esq., was called to the Chair, and Rev. Wm. P. Newman ap- pointed Secretary. After prayer by Bro. Robinson, the . ob- ject of the meeting was stated by the chair- man, who called upon the Secretary to read from the "Seventeenth Annual Report of the Colonial Church and School Society" which reading showed that the object of Rev. Mr. Dillon's Mission to this country is to estab- lish a separate school, or school's for the colored people. It was voted, that a Committee of five be appointed, to draft resolutions for another meeting respecting the said Mission. Rev. Wm. P. Newman, Mr. Adolphus Juda. Wilson, R. Abbott, Esq., Rev. Mr. Johnson, were then appointed. Voted, that W. R. Abbott be a Com- mittee to wait on Mr. Dillon, invite him to attend the next meeting of the colored citi- zens. : Voted, that Sayer St. Chapel, on Monday evening of next month, at 74 o'clock. W. i. Axpzsott, Chairman. Wm. P. Newman, Secretary. we adjourn to meet at the Colportage in Canada West. Upper Canaba Tract Sociery. Toronto, September 4th, 1854. Before and at the T'wenty-second Anniversary of this Society, held on the 6th of June, the his- tory of its past operations, its present condition, and the relation it sustains to Evangelical Chris- tianity, were carefully considered. In view of the success which God has vo uch- safed to the limited efforts made, and the small amount of agency thus far employed by this society, and of the success of Colportage as employed by the American Tract Society, in this Province ; in view of the wants of our population as revealed by Colportieur labour, showing great destitution ef Religious Knowledge in our coun- try, the prevalence of Romanism and other erro- neous systems of Religion, and great inditference to education and spiritual Religion among nomi- nal Protestants, and the wide-spread diffusion of a corrupt and destructive Literature; and in view of the fact that the progress of our country is far more rapid than the increase of means for its Evangelization, we are convinced that Providence calls upon this society to go forward and enlarge its Operations, so as to meet the wants of this Province, believing as we do that Sabbath Obser- vance, the Bible Cause, Sunday Schools, Tem- perance, and other good objects affecting our tem- poral and spiritual welfare, will be efficiently promoted by the employment of Colporteurs for all our population, including the 40,000 Germans wesi-ward ofthis city. The history of Colpartage in the United States warrants these expectations. We are grateful tothe American Tract Seciety for having begun vigorously to extend the worl of Colportage among us, and for their willingness to render us any assistance in their power by transferring to us men now in their employ, and supplying us with such assistance as we need to start this benevolent work. If this muchsneeded enterprise is prosecuted by us, with the facilities now enjoyed, it promises great good to this City, as the head-quarters of its operations. Cauada West has the ability, and Toronto a large share of that ability; to sustain it. The Committee can do but little without the warm-hearted ang liberal co-operation of our citizens in making a vigorous effort here--such an effort as shall give us the confidence of all disposed to aidsuch a work, and secure their co-operation. We are doing what we can by securing the services of a General Agent, and we take much pleasure in commending to your Christian con- fidence and personal regard, the Rev. Yates Hickey, who has just commenced an effort in Toronto, for this Society, and whose eflicient la- bers as Superintendent of Colportage, in connec- tion with the Rochester Agency for Western New York and Canada, and whose prominent relation to the American Tract Society will add value to his services in behalf of this Institution. This is a work of faith and prayer and benevo- lence, and while only devoted Christian men are to be employed in carrying it forward, it is a mat- ter of personal interest to every Canadian, and may be made a means of good to all. As it is proposed to make Toronto the seat of operations for the Province, special effort and large subscriptions will be expected in this city from Christians and all who want to see Canada blessed by this simple but effective agency. To "make the duty of every one more plain, we would further state that, in addition to three Colporteurs employed by this Society, and two-by the King- ston Society, the American Tract Society have some twenty who are Canadians, and who may be transferred to us so soon as the funds are rais- ed to warrant this Society in undertaking what all must see is its own appropriate work. Funds are now needed to purchase publications from the London and American Tract Societies, for the use of Colporteurs, and will be needed from year to year, to pay their salaries, for books and tracts granted to the destitute, and the various and large expenses inseperable from an extended benevolent enterprize. Since Providence has prepared the way by raising up men and providing to our hand all other needed instrumentality, money is all that is now required to give full success. Shall To- ronto allow this opportunity to pass unimproved? Shall the large resources in the hanis of many here be unavailable for such an object? We trust that Christians and philanthropists will say, with one voice, "' [he means shall be furnished." Documents explaining the work may be had at the Depository, 67, Young Street; and all who wish to volunteer their encouragement can do so by placing their funds at the disposal of the Com- mittee, leaving their donations at the same place. £5 constitutes a member for life, and £50 pay a Colporteur's salary one-year. Any person or persons paying this amount may have the Quar- terly Report of a Colporteur for their information and encouragement. JAS. RICHARDSON, President. A. T. McCORD, A. WICKSON, M.

PrRocEEDINGS AGAINST ARCHDEACONS WILBERFORCE AND DeEnison.--We are able to announce, that both these Archdea- cons are now on the point of being brought before the proper tribunals, for their Romish teaching. The honor of vindicating the faith and Protestant doctrine of the Church of England will devolve upon the two ven- erable Archbishops of either province. The Archbishop of York, at the instance of the Rev. John Jarratt, Vicar of North Cave, in the East Riding, has determined to send the charge against Archdeacon Wilberforce to his Provincial Court; and, in consequence of Lord Auckland, the present Bishop of Bath and Wells, having refused to send the complaint against Archdeacon Denison to the Court of Appeal of the Province of Canterbury, the Primate, at the instance of the Rev. oseph Ditcher, Vicar of South Brent, Somerset, has issued a Commission of Inquiry on the subject of the charge against the Archdeacon of Taunton.-- Morning Advertiser.
