Excerpt from Sketches of Christianity in North India Over the continent of India, teeming with beings, whose destinies for eternity roll on with the stream Of time, the Christian philanthropist has long cast his eye and with an intensity of interest known to him who has felt the value of a Saviour, watched the united efforts of the Christian Church to arrest the abominations of idolatry, and witnessed with concern the zeal and life of missionaries, together with the funds of benevolence, poured out on the altar of faith, without producing those results which anticipation in the fulfilment of Prophecy delighted to recognize as near at hand. That, however, which the mere politician and sceptic would denominate a failure, is nothing more than the barrenness of the ground between the period of sowing and that of germination, and cannot, by the servants of the blessed Jesus, be regarded as the sterility of the soil. Holy men of God, and full Of faith, like Brown, Mar tyn, Corrie, and Thomason, &c., have cast in the seed.

Excerpt from Missionary Sketches in North India: With References to Recent Events "The North India mission field occupies the greatest extent of country, and numbers the largest staff of European missionaries, of any of the Church Missionary Society's missions. The distance between its extreme stations is fifteen hundred miles. By the wonderful facilities of modern intercommunication, there is every reason to hope that the whole district will soon be traversed in a few days, as a message has already been sent in a few minutes." The political troubles which have been casting so dark a cloud over the prospects that lately seemed so brightening, have certainly caused a strong temporary check on missionary operations; but there is every reason to hope it will be but temporary, and if the Church awake to her great responsibilities, it may be seen that it was but as the bursting of a heavy thunder-storm, which, though dreadful and appalling for the time it lasts, disperses the dark and threatening clouds in which ignorance and superstition have for ages enveloped India, and opens it more effectually for the descent of the vivifying rays of the Sun of righteousness.
