is money 201l., for the current expenses for the
Orphans, and 100l. for missionary objects, the circulation of the Holy
Scriptures and Gospel Tracts, and for the various Schools.

Of the donations which came in between June 13th and Aug. 31st,
amounting to more than 600l., I will only mention: 50l., through a most
unexpected circumstance, from Glasgow, on June 29th. 2l. from Sunderland
on July 23rd, of which 1l was made up, by an individual putting by one
half-penny daily for the Orphans, and a poor widow one penny per week.
-- On Aug. 19th I received from a Christian Negro in Demerara an old
silver watch, a gold pin and brooch, and Five Dollars.

Aug. 31. When there was less than 20l. in, hand, I received today a
donation of 220l., of which the donor kindly wished me to take 20l. for
my own personal expenses, and to use the other for the work of the Lord
as most needed. I therefore took 150l. for the Orphans, and 50l. for the
other objects, and was thus enabled to advance today 30l., as usual, for
the house-keeping expenses; money being called for, which, otherwise, I
should not have been able to supply.

Of the donations received between Aug. 31st and Oct. 24th, amounting to
about 550l., I only notice 2l. 7s. 6d. "From South Africa," 1l. from
Malta, and 6s. 4d. from Demerara.

I will now minutely relate the Lord's dealings with us, with reference
to meeting the expenses for the 300 Orphans, for about three weeks, as a
specimen of how the Lord was pleased to help us during a period when the
flour was twice as dear as for several years before, and when other
expenses were much greater than usual.

Oct. 24. This afternoon I was called on to advance more house-keeping
money; but as I had only about 26l. altogether in hand, I could only
give 20l. this time, instead of the usual 30l. I had then about 6l. left
for all the many other expenses, large and small, connected with the
Establishment, and which are not included in the ordinary house-keeping
expenses. Before the day is over, I have received this evening the
following amounts Through Salem boxes 1s. By sale of Reports 5s. 1d.
with 10s. as a donation. Both sums from Waterford.--From a donor in
Bristol 1l.--From Bayswater 5l.

Oct. 25. From an Orphan-box in Bristol 4s.--From Warminster 1l. 1s.
-- From Seven Oaks 1l.1s. 6d. This was an old debt, owed for a long
time to the donor. He expressed in prayer that, if the Lord would cause
the money to be paid, it should be
