MANGALORE: PRINTED AT THE GERMAN MISSION PRESS. 185 4. = =) — e e B TR = —— B %, i s %, REPORT. We have entered upon the twentieth year of our Mission. In October 1834 the first three Brethren landed on this coast, and now we look back on a long series of trials and joys, of sins and mercies,—it is to be hoped above all, with a deep feeling of humiliation. We have seen much of man’s weakness, and something of the Lord’s strength; we know we have deserved wrath, even in works comparatively good; but thanks to His unfailing compassions, we are not consumed: we are even increased, quite as much as we could have hoped at the beginning of our work. May all the glory be given to Him, whose strength is made perfect in our 5 weakness! During the past year all our lives have been spared, but we have had a considerable number of invalids. Of these Br. Mogling, who last year left the coast resolved on returning to Europe, found in the Coorg country an open door for the preaching of the Gospel, and was induced to prefer laboring among those mountaineers to the prospect of visiting his native country. At the end of his first year in Coorg he finds himself no ways injured in his health: on the contrary he hopes to regain 1% 4 his full strength without being laid aside from work. He has had much to cheer him in the commencement of the new Mission, marked though it was by trials of different kinds. The convert Stephanas, who accom- panied him from Mangalore in February 1853, was gladly received by his wife and children, who were baptized on the 4th of March, and have since made very favorable progress. The claims of the family to retain their ancestral property were impugned by the Coorgs; but the highest authority has decreed, that the law which secures liberty of conscience to all classes, extends to Coorg as well as to the rest of India, and Stephanas is effectually protected in the midst of many enemies. Knowing that our Home-Committee were already pledged to begin several other stations, Br. Mogling felt it his duty to commence this Mission on his own sole responsibility. We now join him in thank- ing God for the support freely given by a number of liberal friends of Indian Missions to him and his work during his separation from us, and for the resolution of our esteemed Home-Committee on the 19th January 1854, to receive him back into their society, and to engage in the prosecution of the Coorg Mission. ~We hope, if spared, to give in our report of 1855 a new chapter, headed “Coorg Mission; Alamanda Station”. Let our friends help by prayer to make it a rich and interesting one! The Brethren Albrecht and F. Miiller, have both 5 for a season been laid aside from their work. The former seeks to recruit his health by a stay on the Nilagiris. Br. Miiller is just now in Coorg and feels considerably better. Our Sisters Irion, Biihler, Huber, and Ammann are still suffering, or at least not restored to their spheres of labor, and we commend them to the earnest intercessions of our friends. Under these circumstances we were greatly cheered by the accession of new laborers from our fatherland. The Brethren Kaufmann and Kittel joined us in Decem- ber 1853, accompanied by Miss Kegler, a teacher for the Calicut Boarding School, and followed in February 1854 by Br. Pfleiderer, a young merchant who is to undertake the management of our Industrial Depart- ment. The Brethren Kies and Wiirth have both been married to their brides sent from Germany. Our dear Committee have thus given proof of their strenuous endeavour to supply their stations with the workmen needed. Their's was no easy task during a year of dearth and manifold distress, which dried up many of their former resources. Yet have they had faith to undertake a new labor of love. Hitherto our children have been cared for, as emer- gencies arose, without any systematic arrangement. For some time past it has been felt, that this weighty matter At ought to be provided for in some fixed manner. first it was thought that our children might be educated in two seperate establishments on the Nilagiris. But 6 our own wishes pointed rather to our native country as the soﬂ wherein we should wish them to strike root, and the Committee have most kindly resolved to open there without delay a Home for the children of all their Missionaries They request us to send them at once a goodly number of pupils, and we are hastening to carTy out their wishes It will be a new trial to many a parent's heart, but the Lord will give them grace and strength to bear up against it, and to continue in His service without repining and murmuring. We find this, alas! not so easy a thing, even after the many tokens of his lovingkindness which we have experienced May He, who has shown Himself so faithful and gracious to His unworthy servants, increase our faith, that we be found always praying with praise and thanks- giving, glorying in tribulations also, opening our mouth wide that He may fill it, alway abounding in the work of the Lord, for as much as we know, that our labor is not 1 vain in the Lord! 7 I.

Huber was at the beginning of last year obliged When she re- to visit the Nilagiris in quest of health. turned in December, she appeared greatly improved, though not quite restored; soon however an old disease renewed its attacks, and undermined her strength to such a degree, that we fear she will have to return to Europe. Br. Huber accompanied Mrs. Huber to the Hills, and brought her back from thence; yet during the greater part of the year he was enabled to continue at his post. The English School has suffered in consequence of a change of teachers, which became necessary on account of the misconduct of the former master. Thirty adults have been baptized in the course of the year. Among them was a man 78 years of age, who greatly lamented the weakness of his memory. He gave however good evidence of his faith, was baptized, and died in peace a few weeks afterwards. At Codacal a goodly number of people from the Tier caste (corresponding to the Shdnars of the Tinne- velly District), as well as a family of Panickers, have been brought to a knowledge of the truth. 8 - The strength of the Mission staff has beén augmented Fy b the accession of Miss Kegler, who has been sent out by the German Ladies Society, and will assist in conducting the Boarding School, where Mrs. Huber had left a void deeply regretted and not easily filled up. Br. Fritz writes: In some of our adults the Lord has doubtless commenced His work. He will also carry it on, to the praise of His name. One of our men, a weaver by trade, had for a long time greatly tried the patience of his believing wife by his enmity against the gospel, which he continued to manifest after hé had renounced caste. He went so far as to say that the death of his boy, an amiable and hopeful child, had been caused by the frequent prayers of the mother. At last, however, the gloomy and morose man was softened, and believed to the great joy of his wife; but at the same time his protracted ailments terminated in dropsy, of which he died on the 6th of March last. In the Girls School a very intelligent girl of 5 years has died. ~She bore her sufferings very patiently, and during the last night she fre- quently exclaimed, Come Lord Jesus!” The Carpenters Shop is making good progress. Several Christian youths of the Calicut congregation as well as from other stations are v bound apprentices, and the earnings of the young men fully cover their expenses. A Nayer youth from Travancore, who had heard the Word of God from our English Brethren in the South, but was afraid to confess Christ in his own part of the country, resolved to set out on his travels. When he came to Codacal, the Catechist spoke to him so faithfully and He is a well in- earnestly, that he was prevailed upon to remain. formed, clever youth; we have therefore directed him to attend our English School. The increase of our Co dacal congregation has rendered it desirable to have a piece of ground, on which the converts may earn their livelihood. Through the kindness of the Collector we have been enabled to obtain a very suitable spot, which was in former days the hunting ground of the Vettattu Rdja. By cultivating this ancient forest, a good many industrious men will be able to support them- selves.—Our Northern out-stations Ellattur and Coilandy are as yet rather barren spots: but we can look with some satisfaction on the work going on there by means of the well frequented schools. In the midst of much that is cheering, we have not been without our trials. A Nayer youth of good natural gifts came to stay with us 9 for some time. After a short while he was annoyed at our not baptizing him so soon as he expected, and therefore joined the Roman Catholic congregation at this place. There he was made much of, ‘but soon he misbehaved, ran away, and turned Maplah. To ingratiate himself with his new friends, he put them up to persecute one of our Christians, whom he knew to have formerly been a Mahommedan. Happily the anger of the Maplahs did not go beyond the sending of threatening messages, and after a short time the unprincipled young man tired also of this change of his religion. The last we heard of him was, that he had joined the Syrian Bishop, a man of some zeal, who bestirs himself at the Southern extremity of our district, to gather a congregation from amongst the heathen. We have for some time felt the want of churéh ac- commodation for our increasing congregation. Encour- aged by the subscriptions of many friends and a liberal grant from Government, we are now about to lay the foundation of a chapel, which we hope will be finished in the course of this year.

She had no mind to become a Christian; yet she said, that as all her children were now at Chombala, she too would come to live near them; but first, she said, she must attend the customary offering, which the people of her caste bring to the god of snakes. =~ On the Her two 2nd of March she came, apparently in her usual health. sons and two daughters were very glad to have their mother with them, but she would not listen to the word of God. Next day she was suddenly carried off by Cholera. The same day, three heathen relatives, who had accompanied her from Pudiangady, died of this fearful scourge. Rama, greatly shocked, urged me to baptize him without farther delay. I did so on the 12th of the same month, and was rejoiced to find, that although there had been so little time to prepare him, he gave satisfactory evidence of his faith and knowledge. Two Tier men at Wadagara, who had long since heard the Word, and had shown so much love for it, that for some time they had regular Morning and Evening prayers with their families, after a time became lukewarm, and even began to mock at the truth. One of the brothers was attacked by smallpox. Upon this the other fled; but he did not escape the contagion. ‘While the two unfortunate men retained their reason, they expressed their sorrow for having neglected the message of grace, when they had time to accept of it; but soon they lost their consciousness, and thus departed from this world. Yet has it pleased the Lord to open a door for us at Wadagara after repeated disappointments. We long had known Chattappa, a fine looking old man, living near the Catechist’'s house. He was the district head- man of the stone-cutters, and had two years ago begun to build a temple at his own expense. After some time, however, the roof of the new building was carried away In the by a hurricane, and the work was stopped. mean while the man became well acquainted with the Gospel, but hesitated to give his assent to it, and con- tinued most strict in the observance of the nsages of caste &c., saying that while he continued to be a heathen, he preferred being a thorough one; and that, if once he became a Christian, he hoped to be a thorough one too. He might have continued for some time to halt between two opinions, but the Lord urged him to a sudden deci- L | S1011. The Cholera carried off his mother on the 11th June, then his sister, sister-in-law, and daughter-in-law on the 14th of the same month. Upon this the man said, “Lord! grant me twelve hours respite, and I shall He forthwith went to the Catechist, beeome a Chmsman and said, “Now I go to Chombala, for I am afraid f0 die without a Saviour. While others receive three stripes, 1 shall receive ﬁve, because I have known the truth without following Pkt He accordingly repaired to Chombala, and showed the sincerity of his professions by a becoming walk. He received baptism on the 10th of J uly, after he had manfully withstood the temptations, arising from the desire of his numerous relations to re- cover him by any means. This man, named Aaron, may by God’s grace live to be a blessing to the whole village, from which he has come For the present he prefers staying at Chombala, where he finds more nourishment for his soul.—The school at Wadagara, which in former years offered several promising features, has in consequence of this conversion suffered to such an extent, that.it had to be closed.— There is now no school in connection with this station, except one for Christian children, which is duly appreciated by the congregation On the evening of the 11th March, when returning from a little tour, I was told that a Tier woman, who had long been acquainted with our Christians, had with two children come to the house of one of them, with the Her husband intention of joining our conmega,tlon I was told, would soon follow her I forthwith went to the little house, which was surrounded by Tiers armed with knives The woman who was inside, assured me of her firm determination to abide with Christ. But we were surrounded by about 300 people, who had been brought together under the influence of the village head- martl. Om remonstrances were fruitless. From the village authorities no aid was to be obtained, and we Q¥ 12 were not inclined to use force. So the woman was drawn N forth from the hut, and dragged away with frequent blows. After having been ill treated in her father’s house, she was taken to a temple, and made to swear that she would henceforth avoid all intercourse with us. In consequence of a complaint which I made, she was brought before the Magistrate on the 11th day after her removal from our house, when she not only declared her intention to remain a heathen, but denied all that had occurred. The ringleaders of the assault on our house were punished; but in the principal point we were defeated. We had to wait till the 10th of June, when we had the happiness to hear, that the young woman had again come to the house of FKunice, and declared with tears, that she could find no rest without becoming a Christian. As the headman of the village had threatened to kill her, she asked to be sent to Tellicherry. Her request was immediately granted, and she left accompanied by two of our men. But God sent a more effective protec- tion, the heaviest monsoon-rain, under cover of which she reached Tellicherry in safety with her little girl. She was very sorry for the untruths, she had told before the Magistrate; but it must be admitted, that she was under very strong temptation, being frightened out of her wits by threatenings and charms of various kinds. She now enjoys much peace, and pleases us by her dili- gence and intelligence. She was baptized on the 15th September, together with a young Nayer who had joined us.—Elisabeth’s husband, who had expressed his intention of following her, and tried several times to see her in secret, was after all prevailed upon to take another wife. The family of this woman seems to have received some impression of the truth, and an elder child of her’s has already come 13 Hence we hope that the Gospel has at last to join her. found an entrance among the Tiers of this place, who hitherto have stood quite aloof from us.

Communicants 58 14 Non-Communicants Children 80 Catechumens Total 153 The last year has been a very peaeeful,(and we trust, fruitful year for this station. We had the privilege of baptizing 28 heathen, on the 11th August and 25th De- cember. Altogether the congregation has been aug- mented by 52 souls. Five youths, who are apprenticed to various trades, were admitted to church-membership. The workshops have gone on prosperously. Mrs. Irion, whose health had been much shattered, has since July last resided with our kind friend, Dr. Foulis at Cannanore, to whom many of us are deeply indebted for his professional assistance. Under his ju- dicious aud assiduous treatment her disease is gradually giving way, so that we have fair hopes of her ultimate recovery. Br. Miiller, whose health has for some time been very indifferent, likewise spent six weeks at Cannanore, where he had to undergo a surgical operation. Afterwards he 14 tried the effects of a sea-voyage to Bombay, and now re- sides for a time with Br. Mogling, to see what the mountain air of the Coorg country may, under God’s blessing, do for the re-establishment of his health. A District Orphan-house has been established accord- ing to the wish of our Home-Committee. It already numbers 38 orphan-boys, half of whom were sent by the Cannanore Brethren. The pupils are divided into two classes, taught by the Christian Schoolmasters Thaddai and Elieser, and have made satisfactory progress during this first year of the institution. Some of the boys give a promise of future fitness for employment as Catechists. In January 1853 the Brethren were sorely tried by the perverse conduct of Jonah Baker, a baptized Moplah, who persisted in de- manding to be made Catechist, without manifesting sufficient intellectual and moral fitness for such a situation. The conflict with him ended in his abrupt departure; but after some time he came back somewhat humbled, and has since broken off the intercourse with his family, which had been a constant snare to him for many years past. Several schools had to be discontinued, chiefly because we saw, that the class for whose benefit they were established (the Tiers) had, in the increase of their worldly prosperity, ceased to set any value on the instruction offered to them. In the months of January and February Br. Irion preached the Gospel in the Cadutta-nddu, and met with a favorable reception. Some hearers offered a small sum of money to the two Catechists who ac-~ companied him, by way of reward for their trouble. Many were very eager to obtain tracts; even a Rdja was very desirous of getting a supply of tracts for the instruction of his children. The Rdja has since paid the Missionaries a return-visit at Tellicherry.—Br. Miiller also looks back with pleasure and thankfulness upon a preaching excursion, which he made in the Cotiote Tédluk. In the poor-house, Noah, the man upwards of a hundred years of age mentioned in the last report, is engaged in teaching some Cate- chumens to read. Though converted in his extreme old age, he appears quite fresh and youthful in his way of thinking and talking; he is still able to read without spectacles, and to write a legible, though trembling hand. It is always a pleasure to us, to see and converse with him. 15 Two Tier youths, one of about 13, the other of 22 years of age, have joined us in the course of last year The former, Ebenezer, is a very hopeful lad, and makes pleasing progress in his studies The other, Philip, has steadfastly resisted the entreaties, threatenings, and lamen- tations of his friends, and appears to be growing in grace since his baptism An old woman of 63 years, who had formerly led a dissolute life, heard the word of God with great attention, frequently shedding tears on account of her sins, and in remembrance of the love of her Saviour We have now reason to believe that she has found peace with God for she evidences this peace by her daily walk LIST OF BOOKS LITHOGRAPHED DURING THE YEAR 1853 Copies.|Pages.| Total Nr. of The New Testament, from the Epistle to Phi- Pages lemon to the Revelation. - - 450( 128 57,600 - Vajra Soochi. 800 24 19,200 The Way of Rwhteomness 1,000 16 16,000 Instruction in the Truth. - 1,000 16 16,000 The Incarnation of Christ — P 2,000 16 32,000 Biblical History (Condensed.) e o 1,000 57 57,000 Divine Answers to Human Questions.

Still we have to rejoice over souls, quickened and sanc- tified by the truth. Among the European congregation the Lord has wrought many wonders of His mercy. But it is our lot in this place, more than in any other station of our Mission, to experience all the changes of Indian life. In December 1853, the 39th M. N. L. left the station, by which event the European congregation lost nearly thirty of its members. Some of the Native Christians at Anjercandy have fallen away, and are mow troubling the rest of the congregation. In Palghat a house has been purchased, to serve as a chapel for the Native congregation. 1 v The outstation Taliparambu has been strengthened by some families of Native Christians, settled there for the purpose of gaining their livelihood by weaving. Two young candidates for baptism are the first fruits of the work carried on at that station. In February Br. Hebich paid his yearly visit to the great heathen festival at Payawur. A sick Coorg-man who heard the preaching of the Word, accompgnied the Brethren back to Cannanore, and stayed there for some weeks; but as his worldly expectations were not realized, he returned to his home. From the 8th to the 19th of March the Taliparambu festival was visited. Br. Hebich and his Catechists were enabled to preach the Word joyfully, without any difficulties from without. On one occa- sion only stones were thrown, which however more frequently hit the hearers than the preachers. An old man, who has now heard the word of God for the last ten years, and frequently scemed to be im- pressed with the truth, rather discouraged us at the end of a sermon by the faint praise he bestowed upon us. “All” he said, “is true and good: yet after all, your religion is the same as ours; only you call God by another name.” We distributed fewer books than formerly, but had the satisfaction of seeing them more highly prized. A boy of his own accord offered some copper coin i . payment for tracts, and we, of course, gladly supplied him. In October, two Catechists were, at the request of an esteemed English friend, who also defrayed the expenses, sent out on a tour of colportage into the Southern District of Canara, where the Malayalam language is extensively spoken. The results of the experiment were encouraging, especially at Casergode, and we therefore hope to repeat it. One of the Catechists, Gnanamuttu, had to be dismissed. He had fallen into grievous sin, and had besides givene vidence of determined worldly-mindedness. May the Lord yet in mercy recall him to repentance and life.

Br. GuNpERT WRITES: Since January last we have received a heathen family, which had formerly been under instruction at Calicut, but had left again without joining the Church. This family at first behaved so very badly, living in constant dissensions, that we were just about to send them away once more, chiefly on account of the incredible hardness of heart, which the mother of the house showed on all oceasions,—when it pleased the Lord, so to touch her heart by the word of the last Judgment and of the books which shall be opened (Rev. xx, 12.), that she wept for days together and confessed her sins to God and man. Thinking it right to be cautious in this case, we determined to prolong the time of preparation, and are happy to find at the end of the year, that there is indeed a decided change in the old people: so we hope soon to receive them into the Church by Baptism. A Syrian family of the Roman Catholic faith, which was for some time at Chombala, and since May 1852 at Cannanore, has left us in a sad manner. It soon became apparent that the father of the family was too little grounded in faith, to resist the constant revilings and taunts of the Romanists; and at the same time his caste-prejudices were so strong, that he secretly arranged a marriage between his sis- ter and a Roman Catholic. The intended bridegroom was willing to become Protestant, but would not forsake his evil practices, such as drinking. This induced us to withhold our assent from the engagement; whereupon the deluded man took his sister back from our Girls School, threw himself into the arms of Romanism, professed great delight at having regained his peace of mind, rejoiced at the public burning of his Bible, and condemned all heresy to the nether- 19 most hell. After all the Roman priest found, he could not marry the pair from som: canonical impediment; consequently the family left him and returned to nominal Protestantism, but joined themselves to another denomination. Julia, a Wettuwer woman, who had been forsaken by her husband and had received baptism in 1852, has regained her children by her husband’s death. This man after seeing and hearing much of the truth, had at last left our neighbourhood in great enmity, and forbid- ‘When we den any communication between the mother and her boys. heard of his death after the lapse of a fortnight, his relations had al- ready taken charge of the children, and these thought to honor their dead father by refusing to become Christians. However their heathen guardian, whose own child happened to be lying dead in the hut, surrounded by weeping female relations, was touched by the en- treaties proffered in the name of a truly desolate mother; God inclined his heart to let the, children depart and join her, and she thus joyfully learned, that the Lord is abl(e to restore even what has long been given up. The Girls’ School which numbers 56 boarders, is flourishing. In the month of May we had the joy of admitting seven girls to Church- membership by confirmation. In conclusion Br. Hebich desires to send his special love to his dear Friends, Brethren and Children in the Lord, whom, though dispersed in all directions, he strives to hold in faithful remembrance. We live in times which, no doubt, try our faith. So instead of grow- ing slack, let us be urged forward in the ways of our Immanuel by that word of Peter: “If the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?”’—%Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.”—He will not fail, neither become faint nor weary. Therefore, Beloved, let us be steadfust and look up unto Him, who has begun a good work in us. He will also perform it to the praise of the Father. Hallelujah! Amen. A ey giﬁ 20 II. CANARA.

Greiner had the happiness of baptizing sixty persons, adults and children. The new-comers are partly residents in Mangalore, partly people from neighbouring villages, which are frequently visited by the Missionaries and Catechists. Some families of weavers, natives of Gurpur and Panambur, have joined us, having been made acquainted with the truth by some of our Christians. A young man who had gone through much adversity, at last found rest in the Lord Jesus Christ. Before he could be baptized, he died suddenly of an apoplectic fit, the sequel of a jungle- fever, which had gradually undermined his health. A Concani Brah- man, who had married a low caste woman, and had suffered much on account of this misalliance, heard the word of God through some of our Christians, and joined us. His sincerity and candour lead us to hope much for him. At our out-station Bolma, a man of the name of Maroo, who had formerly cursed his Christian children, was at last subdued by the distress which he suffered by -being separated from his industrious sons, and has now joined the Church.—A family of the Bant (Nayer) 21 caste at Bolina has also joinedv us after a hard struggle. The per- suasion of influential heathen and Mahommedans in the neighbourhood had almost unsettled the minds of these people, when something occurred to convince them, that their heathen and Mussulman friends were after all extremely selfish,—upon which they came to us, full of shame and repentance. A Roman Catholic youth of good family, who had been a student in the Popish college, but had left it from conscientious reasons, was through the influence of Br. 8. Miiller brought to the knowledge of the truth, and joined our congregation after many struggles.—On the other hand three members of our congregation have joined the Romanists. One who had formerly been a Roman Catholic, has returned to his former creed; another went over after he had been excommunicated from our congregation on account of adultery; and a woman left us in hopes of finding there greater temporal advantages. The Girls’ School is in a prosperous state. It now numbers 65 girls. Three have died during the past year; two of these gave us a good hope regarding their inward state. Five of the elder girls have married during the year. The Boys’ Parochial and Orphan School under the superintendence It numbers 55 of Br.

Deggeller has devoted some of his time to Bazar-preaching, and has made some preaching tours in the neighbourhood of Mangalore and along the Ghauts, on which he was accompanied by a number of the boys under his charge. Thirty-three of our Christians are now occupied in the weaving establishment under the superintendence of Br. Haller, which is of all our workshops by far the most successful. Two children of our late Catechist Andreas have followed him in death; the first an amiable girl, who desired to be with the Lord, and was taken away most unexpectedly; the other Joseph, a hopeful youth, who although enfeebled by a long fever, was still intent on his studies, until informed of the dangerous turn his disease was taking. As soon as he heard the news, he rejoiced ‘over the prospect of de- parting for his eternal home, and when his hour was come, exclaimed with his eyes raised to heaven, ¢Oh what glory do I see!” 22 II. SCHOOLS. 17 .l THE CATECHIST SCHOO L. Rev: S. Kullen, and Rev. H. A. Kaundinya. The number of the Catechist Class has been redﬁeed to twelve, for two of the pupils had to be dismissed for disobedience and indifference to their calling. The progress made is on the whole satisfactory.—During the rainy season some of the pupils were retarded by failure of health. The pupils have completed a course of sacred history. They have read in the Old Testament Isaiah, Job, and the writings of Solomon. A number of those Psalms, which contain more explicit prophecies regarding Christ, were carefully explained to them, with the assistance of a valuable popular commentary, which we hope ere long to trans- late and print in Canarese. In the New Testament the Acts of the Apostles and the Epistles have been read and explained, with special reference to the Church History of the Apostolic age. In ancient Canarese seventy-five of those short poems, which teach the worthlessness of all worldly pursuits and the necessity of exclusive devotion to one God, have been read and explained. These poems, which are highly esteemed by the educated Natives, are not only classical in their style, but also highly interesting, because they show so clearly, how near an approach to truth the enlightened Hindoo mind is capable of, and yet at the same time what an immense gulf separates even the finest sentiments of heathenism from the truth as it is in Jesus. ~—In German a solid grammatical foundation has been laid; and some of the scholars begin to translate with ease. Singing is much practised, and we are glad to say, with pleasing success. Br. Kaundinya, lately assisted by Br. Deggeller, has regularly preached in the Bazar on Tuesday and Friday Evenings. He 1s on these ocecasions accom- panied by his pupils; and it is a matter of thankfulness to be able to say, that the audiences have usually been numerous and well behaved, although as yet no visible fruit of these labors can be pointed out. 23 On the 6th July Br. Kaundinya lost his wife after a It will be remembercd that on his protr: acted 1llness. return to India he was joined by his heathen wife, from But she whom he had been separated fol eight years. remained a heathen to the great sorrow of her husband, and died alag! without xhowmo anv concern for er soul’s salvation.

Zorn, Esq., he had ample oppor- tunities of seeing all the educational institutions, and becoming acquainted with the schoolbooks and other means of instruction which are used there. Br. Hoch met with great kindness from all those, with whom he was brought into contact in the course of his enquiries. He returned to Mangalore armed with fresh courage for the prosecution of his arduous yet important labors, and reached his home on the eve of that great storm, which swept the whole of the Western coast (28th March). Shortly after his return Mr. May left the school, in a serious which he had labored for ten years with zeal and faithfulness, 3 loss, which at the time seemed greatly to impair our prospect of use- fulness to the rising generation. Yet have we received new proofs of our Father’s blessing on this branch of the Mission. In July the Brahman Scholars at last returned, and the point at issue between us and them, viz. non-obser- vance of caste-rules during the school-hours, has been tacitly yielded by them, after a struggle of several years. Among the 82 scholars on our roll there are now 47 Brahmans. Besides his labors in the English School, Br. Hoch has also undertaken the superintendence of four Cana- rese schools in Mangalore.

These places have therefore been frequently visited; and also the festivals which took place in the vicinity, have been made use of to proclaim the word of truth. Entire families in this neighbourhood have renounced idolatry, and, what is peculiarly hopeful, in several instances the converts have been permitted to continue to reside under the same roof with their heathen relatives. A late visitation of the Cholera has been instrumental in direct- ing the attention of many towards Christianity, chiefly because some of our Christians attended upon sick hea- then, who had been forsaken by their own people, and even slept in their houses. One woman who has onl lately joined the Church, especially distinguished herself by her self-devoted and courageous love towards her heathen neighbours. Our Christian Toddy-drawers have unanimously come to the resolution, not to retail any more toddy, but to sell it wholesale to the contractor only. This resolution makes them very dependent on the contractor; but it has been necessary in order to save their families from the contamination, which is the unavoidable concomitant of the retail-sale of spirits. It would be far better, if all the toddy could be converted into sugar; but this is rendered next to impossible by the scarcity of fuel. The Mulki congregation has also resolved to build a church; and the very considerable contributions in money and labor which all the Church-members have made, show that our people are earnestly desiring, and really deserve to have a suitable place of worship. While the congregation is thus prosperously advancing, we have of course to experience a good deal of enmity from those who are without. One of our converts had to leave his daughter, a girl of 7 years, in the hands of a heathen, to whom she had been betrothed. Some of our people had their fields and gardens spoiled by malevolent neighbours, while they themselves were at church. Others again are threatened with vexatious lawsuits, for which false witnesses are easily procured by their adversaries. In the beginning of the monsoon the waters rose to an unheard of 27 height, and the consequence was that our plantation at Kadike Wég much damaged, and the houses of the Christians swept away. Happily no lives were lost.—During the rains Br. Biihrer translated Barth’s Biblical Stories into Tulu, and now he is engaged in the translation of a valuable Manual of Christian Instruction for the use of Catechists. Josiah, a young man who is preparing for the office of Catechist, was seized by his relations and forcibly detained, while on a visit to his native place. After a fruitless attempt to escape, his relations tried to compel him by intimidation, to take an oath that he would not leave his mother again. He did not swear, but interceded for his deluded relatives, requesting us not to lodge a complaint with the authorities. After some weeks he happily found means to escape, and has since been left at peace. In the neighbourhood of Udapi, an intelligent Bhuta priest has joined us with his wife and brother-in-law. The priest greatly ex- cited the ire of his neighbours, by deliberately desecrating the Bhtita temple. He has remained steady. The loss of his wife and little child, who died shortly after having been baptized, was blessed to the hus- band by increasing his humility and zeal in the pursuit of the new way, which he rejoices to have found. His brother-in-law was for a short time alarmed, thinking that the family were suffering from the wrath of the neglected idol; but prayer and exhortation soon restored him to sober cheerfulness. P. 8. We are rejoiced to add, that on the 26th of February 1854 twenty adults were baptized at Gudde; and the prayer room at that out- station is already becoming too small to hold the growing congregation.

Ammann was absent from his station for four months. The state of Mrs. Ammann’s health rendered a 4 * 28 change to the Hills indispensabfé, and Br. Ammann’s own much debilitated frame required a similar change. During his absence, the Catechist has faithfully done his work among both Christians and heathen; while Br. Ammann found many opportunities for preaching the word of God on the Hills, where he frequently accompanied the Brethren on their Missionary tours.—While at Honore, Br. Ammann has regularly preached in the bazar twice a week. His auditory has mostly consisted of strangers, for the inhabitants of Honore and the surrounding villages show much aversion and indifference. The Tamil congregation shows a hopeful zeal and earnestness. Some of the members are diligent in their endeavours to attract enquirers. Their children are col- lected in a school, which a Christian Lady carries on with long-tried devotedness. Some heathen, among them also a Brahman, have professed a desire to become Chris- tians; but Br. Ammann is not yet quite clear about the motives of the latter.—The bazar school is in a better state than last year. ITinerAcy. From 14th December 1852 till 12th February 1853 Br. Ammann travelled to the North East of Honore. The Gauda peasantry in these parts are in many respects a fine race, but they are bigoted worshippers of the Bhutas, and from their secluded life Br. Ammann however succeeded in in- are very shy of strangers. troducing himself to them by means of a native well acquainted with them, who accompanied him on his tour. Several of these cultivators, and among the rest the headman of the caste, listened very attentively to the preaching of the Word, seemed to comprehend its meaning, and eventually became quite friendly and familiar. Also among the three other castes of cultivators Br. Ammann has found acceptance. At Sircy there is a spirit of enquiry among the higher castes.— The small Tamil congregation at this place has been repeatedly visited.— At Sunda, the Swami of the Haiga Brahmans, and the spiritual head of the Jains, were visited. Both were, alas! equally contented with their own way and religious persuasion.— In March, the great festival at Glocarna was visited by the Missionary in com- pany of the Catechist. The Gospel was preached to thousands. 29 Some heard the word willingly, while others cried out, %Great 18 Mahabaléshwara!” From the 17th of August to the 2nd of October, Br. Ammann travelled back from the Nilagiris to Honore, via Mysore and Mercara. He halted for two days at every stage, in order to preach and distribute portions of Secripture. He was enabled to dispose of some of the latter in almost every place, and had of course ample opportunity for preaching. At Mysore the people grew angry, because the Missionary declined to enter into useless disputes, and confined himself to the statement of Gospel-truth. At Periapatam, the announce- ment that we are all sinners and worthy of the curse, was peculiarly unwelcome, because the multitude thought, that words of such evil omen would deprive them of the blessing to be derived from the feast they were then celebrating. Nevertheless the majority of hearers every- where were attentive.—At Mysore Br. Ammann had the pleasure of meeting with a low caste man, who had been baptized by the Rev. C. Campbell of the London Mission. This man teaches a school every evening without any remuneration. The word of God seems to have touched the hearts of some of his scholars, who propose to become Christians, but are somewhat intimidated by the petty persecutions, which their teacher has to endure.

He left the station on 30 the 17th of September. Br. Weigle has been 6rdered by the Home-Committee, to repair to Mangalore, and there to superintend the literary labors in connection with our press. The station has been reinforced by Br. Moerike who arrived here on the 6th of February 1854, and by two new Brethren from home, who came out by the December steamer. The latter are at present engaged in learning the language. The Brethren have been grievously disappointed by the misconduct of several enquirers who at first gave them fair hopes. One family has been baptized. The father of the house, a Tamu- lian, had long been desirous of joining our Church, but had been prevented by his wife, who was a very violent and ill-disposed person. This woman was bitten by a mad dog at the beginning of last year, and the fear of death, as well as a sense of the kindness which she ex- perienced at the hands of some of our Christians, pro- duced a marked change in her conduct, and inclined her to ask for admission into the church. After a course of instruction, suited to the very limited capacities of this pair, they were baptized together with their children on the 22nd of January last. Their conduct has hitherto been consistent and satisfactory. The Schools are in a prosperous state. Lately the experiment has been made of establishing a Heathen Girls’ School on the Mission premises. All sorts of difficulties were started at first; but we per- severed; and now we have a tolerably well attended day school, which is constantly under our own eye,—a thing which we had long felt to be most important, especially with regard to Girl's Schools. 1t is worthy of remark, that some of the heathen girls have, of their own accord, desired to be instructed in female work, and have for this pur- pose attended at extra hours. The congregation, of which the Tamulians form the greater part, has given more satisfaction than in former years. The great stum- bling blocks have been taken away, and there is reason to hope for better things. In the course of last year, a Native Reading and Debating Society 31 was established here by an enterprising and intelligent young man from Poonah. Although this institution has of course no direct Christian tendency, yet the Missionaries have watched its rise and progress with attention, and have thought it right to encourage it by permitting the use of one of their schoolrooms for the debating meet- ings. The debates have frequently turned upon those points, which must be uppermost in the mind of every real friend of India, such as the degraded state of the female sex, the pernicious effects of caste, the uselessness of charms &e.—The Library and Reading Room is also, for the present, established in a side room of one of our school buildings. In connection with this society, our Native friends have established a High Caste Girl School, which is well attended, and where the progress of the pupils was shown, at a late examination, to be very satisfactory. We hope, that with regard to these interesting undertakings of the Natives themselves, the saying of our Lord will be fulfilled, “He that is not against us, is on our part.” HUBlLYﬁ Rev. J.

Yet we are thankful to report that also during this year a family of six persons has been baptized; and there are five Catechumens awaiting baptism. Towards the end of 1853 and in the beginning of the present year, Br. Miiller and his wife have been seriously i1l of fever, which disease has been very prevalent during the 2 & past season; but they hope that by God’s mercy the worst is passed, and that new strength will be vouchsafed them to continue their labors. The most melancholy occurrence of the year has been the falling away of Andreas, one of our Christian goldsmiths. This man, whose conduct had been irreproachable for more than a year, lately showed symptoms of mental aberration, which induced the Missionary to place him under treatment in the Dharwar lunatic Asylum. While there, he seemed to be doing well; but after he had been discharged, it became but too evident, that he had become addicted to the use of intoxicating drugs. All remonstrance was in vain; he became quite unmanageable, and at last left the Mission premises, and returned to his heathen relatives and acquaintances, where he endeavored to stifle the voice of conscience by railing and blaspheming against the truth. In this sad occupation he was joined by one of the younger members of the congregation, who had found himself disappointed in his selfish and worldly expectations, and therefore left the Mission. The conduct of both however was such, that their words were without weight even in the estimation of the heathen, who would gladly, if possible, have made the most of their testimony against the truth. In October a young coppersmith broke his caste, cut off his hair- lock, and steadfastly opposed all the attempts of his relatives, to make him return. The brothers of the young man hereupon lodged a complaint, in which they represented that three of our Christians had forcibly abduced him. The native magistrate, instead of investigating this false charge, applied himself to intimidate the youth, and at the same time permitted his relations to use their best efforts to persuade and alarm him. Notwithstanding all this; the youth repeated half a At last he was dozen times, I wish to go with the Missionary.” prevailed upon, once to say: I wish to go home. “Take this down”, said the magistrate to the writer, who had not taken any notes of what had passed before; and forthwith the young man was delivered to his triumphant relations, who were so elated by this success, that When this occurrence they threatened an attack upon the Christians. was brought to the notice of the European authorities, an order was given to the effect, that in future all cases of conversion should be exempted from the jurisdiction of the native magistrates.—It was not long before we enjoyed the benefit of this order. A blacksmith at Domricoppa had long been friendly and willing to hear the word of God, but had thought it impossible and unnecessary to break Caste,— in which persuasion he was strengthened by the Roman Catholic 33 inhabitants of his village. His son, a lad of 20 years, was more fully persuaded of the truth, and therefore came to join us. The father, encouraged by the late triumph of the coppersmith, complained to the Native Magistrate; but the Missionary insisted upon the case being sent up to the Collector, where, after a short investigation, the young man was permitted to act according to his own conviction. He has since given much satisfaction by his conduct; and we are in hopes that the father will yet follow the son. There are several other men, of whom it may be said that they are not far from the kingdom of God; but one is hindered by his affection for an old father—another by the desire of being first settled in life; and, alas, the baneful practice of smoking and eating opium and hemp is a great obstacle with many. We frequently meet with people who have a great deal to say against idolatry and caste, and even assert that their God and ours are the same,—while, if we get more intimately acquainted with them, we find that tkeir God is principally worshipped by secret meetings at which persons of various castes eat, drink and smoke with each other. How are those to be pitied who consider such drunken banquets as the expression of an enlightened esoteric religion! BETTIGHERRY. Rev. G. Wirth, and Mrs. Wiirth. Catechist : Nahasson.

There is less opposition, than formerly, against the preaching of the Word. The leaven seems gradually to penetrate the lump.—The Schools have recovered from the panic occasioned by the first conversions and are now in a thriving condition. Jacob Chittawadiga, a weaver from the neighbourhood, had his attention drawn to the “new way” by the conversion of one of his friends. He was regular in his attendance upon our evening prayers, but felt too weak to separate from a woman, with whom he had formed a connexion, and who would not hear anything of Christianity. At last he threatened to forsake her, and their domestic peace was disturbed. In Oct. 1852 the woman came to the Mission house, where, as it happened to be Sunday, she was invited to attend worship. An impression seemed to have been made upon her, though she avoided (as it seemed, from bashfulness) the Missionary. But after a few days Chittawadiga came, determined to remain with us; and declared that his principal anxiety was how he might be saved. The woman too promised to come; but subsequently her heathen friends prevailed upon her to stay away. Jacob was baptized on Easterday 1853, and has hitherto conducted himself well. He weaves together with his friend Joshua, who had first attracted him. ‘In February last, Br. Wiirth made a preaching tour, in the course of which he also visited Honnoor, where our brethren of the Bellary Mission have a hopeful outstation. At Katrigi, in the Nizam’s country, Paul endeavoured to obtain his wife, of whom he had heard that she was half inclined to join him. But his endeavors were unsuccessful; Paul was not even permitted to see, or converse with, her. Subse- quently however we succeeded in convincing the parents of the young woman of our disinterestedness, and conceived hopes of better success at some future time. These too, however, were destined to be frustra~ ted: for the young woman died soon after of Cholera, In February 53 a young woman, a native of Gadag, who had long desired to become a Christian, notwithstanding the threatenings of 35 her mother, took up her abode with us. She remained steadfast under all the solicitations and menaces of her relations and especially of her father-in-law, learned to read and write, and is now diligently employed in winding thread for the weavers.

His attention was directed to the truth by one of our older Christians, Aaron, who usually meets a number of heathen several times a week at the house one of his acquaintances, in order to answer their questions and solve their doubts. Also the elder sister of Aaron joined us in September. Shortly afterwards she suddenly lost her only son by an apoplectic fit, which affliction made her almost disconsolate. MALASAMUDRA. Br. J.

However, even if a regular sale could have been secured, the manufacture must have ceased after a year or two from want of fuel. In August and September last Br. Leonberger made a Missionary tour to the South, accompanied by the Catechist pupils from Betti- gherry. e preached the glad tidings of salvation in twenty-eight villages and towns. At Mulagoonda three young weavers stayed with the Missionary till after midnight, eager to hear the word of God. At Lakshmeshwara, whose ruins tell of a bygone time of glory and splendor, as well as at Ranabednore, several hopeful enquirers were met with. B * 36 The late conversions at Bettigherry and Guledgudd have made a great impression, and though the majority is wrapped up in the usual 4 apathy and dislike of innovations, yet there are a good many, who earnestly enquire concerning the way of salvation and invite the Missionary to enter their houses » to prolong his stay, and to repeat his visit. Some seem to be really concerned about the s alvation of their souls. A few promised to come 8oon to join the Mission. There was much apparent earnestness in their promises, but they have not yet been fulfilled. The Boys school on the Mission Premises has been in a flourish- ing condition. (Latterly it has been interrupted because the Master resigned his situation, being obliged to attend to his domestic affairs). Two of the. older boys appear to be under serious impressions. Four adults were baptized on the 10th of April. name of Peter. Among them was an old man of the Jain caste who received the This man had long been searching after truth, and had been directed to the Mission House by one who was himself a sad backslider, and of whom more will be said presently.

In his last moments he asked his heathen brother to care for his son, John, but not to remove him from Malasamudra; rather to go there himself with his aged mother. The son, a very well inclined youth, who had given evidence of a sincere love of the Saviour, was unfortunately killed, by the accidental discharge of a gun, which a heathen servant was cleaning, on the 27th September 1853. 37 GULEDAGUDD A, Rev.

Six simple but solid houses for the native christians, and one larger house for the weaving looms, have been completed. 7 \s Also the Mission house with its outhouses will be com- pleted before the setting in of the monsoon. ® The collecting of the Christians 1 n the Mission éom— pound (formerly they lived here and there in the midst of the heathen village) has been a salutary and even necessary measure, which enables the Missionary to be- come more thoroughly acquainted with them and to exert a greater influence over them. The Catechist, feeling that he had not done all that he might have done for his heathen relatives, asked and received leave to visit them. He went to his native place, which'is about fifty miles distant (in the Nizam's Country); asked their pardon for some wrong, which he had done them while he was a heathen, and preached to them the word concerning the Saviour of sinners. All were touched, and some of them promised to join him at the Mission Station. The Church has received an important addition in the person and family of Malcappa, a silk weaver. 38 This man had conducted a large weaving establishment of his own; and though he was in debt to a considerable amount , yet while he was a heathen, he had found no difficulty in continuin g his oper- ations, and even paying off part of the debt. But when he declared his intention of becoming a Christian, there was a general panic among his creditors. The y came and tried every means of dissuading him from the decisive step . But he nobly resolved: «Let things go, as they may: I will cast myself at the feet of the Lord Jesus.” and acted accordingly. Upon this the creditors thought it preferable not to urge the man to a declaration of insolvenc y, and the new convert on his part made arrangements at once to p ay off as much of his debt as he could. For this purpose he sold 1 s newly built house and his stock in trade. Now the question was how he should henceforth support himself and his family. At the same time it became desirable to make a provision for the other Christians who had, till then, lived in inconvenient dependency on a heathen master silkweaver. In this emergency we received most valuable aid fr who about this time happened to visit Gule om a benevolent Lady dagudd. She raised a fund for the erection of a weaving house for all the Christian weavers, dd Church which is to be the property of the Guledagu , and also open- ed an account for our weavers with a silk merchant at Bombay, by which they are enabled to purch to sell part of their ase their silks at a lower price, and wares before they are called upon to pay for the 84 raw material. This seasonable aid which has placed our congrega-— tion on a tolerably independent footing, demands our most grateful acknowledgments. Malcappa has since been baptized and called Shantappa. The accession of this energetic , intelligent and truly sincere man has been a gre at gain to our congregation, and has already led several of his friends to think of following him. A weaver from the Nizam’s Country who, six years ago, had com- mitted a crime, came to visit us in great compunction of heart. He seemed to be greatly struck at our unwillingness to receive him at once, as the Mussulmans had offered to do at other places. Pilgrimages had given no peace to his mind: and he asked with grea t earnestness, if Christ would forgive him. He was told that he was guilty of death, and that we should not protect him, nor indeed could do 0, in case he were prosecuted. He said, that he was willing to suffer death, and that he was only seeking for peace of mind. We thought it not right to stand in the way of one seeking rest with Christ. He broke his caste, and took up his abode with some of the Christians. Once again he was driven to leave us by his inward restlessness; but he has now returned, and opportunity is given to him to prove his sincerity. O 5} 9 In February 1853 the weaver caste celebrated a great festival in this neighbourhood ; the image of their god, which, pending a quarrel between two parties of this caste, had long been buried in a dunghill, was now rescued from its ignoble resting place and solemnly en- throned. During this festival we had crowds of visitors who tried to ascertain the truth of the various rumors they had heard regarding our Congregation: the influx was so great that the Christians were obliged to stop their daily work, in order to speak with the visitors. Many have, there is reason to hope, left with favorable impressions. Several people express a desire to join us, but make no marked The father of a large family, though himself favorable to progress. Christianity, kept back his eldest son who was ready to join us. Now the son has become an open enemy; a second son died suddenly: and the father himself was, shortly afterwards, taken away in such a manner that there was great reason to regard the case as a judgment of God.

Biihler’s health rendered Mrs. Biihler is now under the a change desirable. skilful treatment of our kind friend Dr. Foulis, at Can- nanore, and we hope that, through God’s mercy, her 40 health will be re-established. Br. Moerike left the hills on the 2nd of January 1854. He has been directed bv our Home Committee to take charge of the Dharwar station, which has been temporarily deprived of laborers by the departure of Br. Weigle for Mangalore, and the 1llness of Br. Albrecht. The congregation at Kaity consists, as yet, principally of Tamulians, and the Brethren greatly long for the establishment of an indigenous Church: yet they hope that also their labor among the Tamulians will not be without fruit. A remarkable case of conversion was that of an intelligent Raj- poot man, which is recorded at length in the Madras Christian Herald No. 51 for 19 Qct. 1853. This man and his family resided on the Mission Premises for some time, and gave great satisfaction ; but after the lapse of some months they made up their minds to go to Madras because the climate of the Hills did not seem to suit the wife. The Brethren accompanied them with their best wishes and prayers, and asked some Christian friends at Madras, to receive them on their arrival there. 5% The Hill tribes, especially the Badagas, have during last year been visited by a very fatal epidemic, probably typhus fever. This scourge carried off at least 500 per- sons, and afforded new opportunities for reaching the hearts of these poor people. In several villages it raged so violently that those who were not attacked, took fright and ran away to the jungles, leaving the dead and dying to themselves. The brethren were incessantly employed in visiting the sick and bringing to them the Gospel message which had been known to many of them in their former days of health. Br. Metz especially devoted himself to this service, and was also enabled to distribute medicines by the liberal aid of some Christian friends. His treatment of the sick was, in many cases, blessed with success; in one village, where the disease had been raging, not a single per- son died after the arrival of the medecine. Being so constantly amongst the sick and dying, Br. Metz sometimes felt as if he would also be seized by the contagion; but the Lord has not given the heathen this opportunity for reviling His name. 41 In one village (Keeloor) the heathen have again asked the breth to pull down the idol temple, and to erect a small Christian Church. Br. Metz told them, to do so themselves; but for this their courage is not yet sufficient. The school at Kaity has come to a lamentable end: it had to be discontinued because four of the boys were con- victed of a long continued course of theft and robbery on the Mission premises. The Brethren meet with greater opposition than formerly. Doors which they used to find open, are shut and bolted against them. They have sometimes to hear horrible blasphemy. Yet there are also numerous proofs of the efficacy of the Word which they preach under so much discouragement. Young men, who had learned to read and write in the late Mr. Casamajor’s school, now rejoice to refresh their knowledge by means of the recently printed Gospel of % St. Luke in their mother tongue. The intercourse with Badagas of the Malayalam country, which was established by Br. Morike in 1851, continues to be kept up. Parties of these frequently visit Kaity on their trading expeditions, on which they bring Buffaloes and gold dust for sale. One of the principal headmen, who has frequently prayed on his knees with one of the Missionaries, has been accused by the others on account of his continued neglect of the established idolatrous usages ; and the Kotas have threatened not to supply him henceforth with the agricultural and domestic.implements which they make for the rest of [ the hill tribes. A Badaga, who was just about to steal a wife according to their custom, happened to fall in with one of the Brethren, and asked to have his blessing for the connexion he was on the point of forming. The Missionary insisted on the word: “Whoremongers and adulterers God will judge”! The man in vain entreated the Missionary to unsay this word, till at last his mind was set at ease by his relations, who assured him with an oath, that the word of a Padre was of no consequence, and then urged him to take the woman. Shortly afterwards the woman died in a sudden manner and the man was about to kill himself by swallowing opium, when his brother came running to the Missionary, to ask him, to speak “good words” to the disconsolate man. the more. In this manner, while some fear, others hate On the 23rd of Au died. gust a young Badaga of the name of Nanja This youth had given us great hopes from his boyhood. He had been the best scholar of our first Canarese School, had subse- quently rendered us good service as a teacher of the Badaga dialect, and had given such evidence of the workings of the truth in his heart, that our dear departed friend Mr. Casamajor sometimes designated 14th Report German Evang. Mission. 6 42 him as the probable firstfruits of the Badaga Mission. But, alas, though his impressions and acknowledgments of the truth continued strong to the very end, he delayed an open profession of Christianity until it was too late, and we had with sorrow to accompany his corpse to the heathen funeral pile. A sister of this lad who had for years suffered from leprosy, often attentively listened to the parables of the Prodigal Son, and of Dives and Lazarus, which were read to her by her elder brother. When she heard of poor Lazarus, she seemed inwardly to liken her own situation to his. On her deathbed she complained, that she had no evidence of the existence of another world. There is no Keilasa, (Hindoo heaven,) she exclaimed. But on being re- minded of a Badaga song descriptive of the other world (which contains a very near approach to Christian ideas) she all at once exclaimed: “Yes there is a heaven”—and soon afterwards expired. Suicide is very common among the Badagas. Br. Metz has suc- ceeded in rescuing five Badaga women who had poisoned themselves with opium, by the speedy administration of suitable antidotes. 1 43 CONCLUSION 0 The preceding account will show, that the past year has been a season of progress in different provinces of the Mission, especially among the people of the Tulu Country. For the fourth time the increase of the year in converts amounts to two hundred souls May soon the time come, when the numbers of prisoners set free by the name of Jesus will be counted no more by hun- dreds, but thousands. The liberality of our good Friends and Brethren in India has kept pace with the increase of our necessities. Upwards of fifteen thousand Rupees have been contri- buted to the Mission, besides some thousand Rupees received by the new Mission in Coorg. Our joy in re- ceiving these gifts if love is great; how great must be the joy of the cheerful givers!
