WHAT SOME ARE DOING IN THE PHILIPPINES.
AMERICAN Christians very early realized the situation of the Filipino Islanders, and soon set about evangelizing them. Some of the denominations began their work almost immediately on permission being granted by the War Department, and settled at Manila. The Episcopalians have already sent out Bishop Brent, who was recently set apart in Boston for this work, and who is accompanied by six associate missionaries. This society is raising some hundreds of thousands of dollars for this purpose. The Catholics are to build a very costly structure in Manila, and are anticipating preparing for their work in the Philippines seven hundred native priests.—Missionary Review.
