NATCHEZ.—I praise the Lord for the Southern Missionary Society, with its faithful ministry in furnishing my people with instructors to lead them out of the mire of unbelief and spiritual lethargy. The schools operated by the Society are a great factor in diffusing light among the people, and in breaking down prejudice. The mission school was a blessing to the community here the past term, which ended May 31. Some of the pupils are keeping the Sabbath, and eight adults have been added to the remnant church by baptism since January. Clothing has been distributed to needy persons. The work has won a place in the hearts of those who know it. May the Lord greatly bless and enlarge the bounds of the Society’s usefulness, and may God’s people rally to its appeal for help, before the door of opportunity shall be closed. PAGE SHEPARD.
