principles of religious truth and freedom . " That this Association of Unitarian Dissenters derive the most valuable eucoura ^ ement fro m the example set before them by their brethren in the North of Ireland , who have defended their
principles in such an able and memorable manner ; and while they give utterance to this expression of their warmest sympathy and respect , they beg to add that it gives them additional confidence in the righteousness of that cause which numbers such pious and noble-minded men among its advocates V
The subject of the distribution of tracts was also brought under the consideration of the Meeting . All were agreed respecting the importance of the object ; a little diversity of opinion prevailed respecting the manner in which that object should be carried into effect : but it was at last deterraiued that it
should be recommended to the ministers and congregations comprised in the Association , to distribute tracts in their respective neighbourhoods , and that it be reported at the uext Meeting what progress had been made by each Society . The Autumn Meeting of the Association will be held at Rivingtou , on Sept . 30 , the Rev . B . li . Davis being the supporter , and the Rev . J . Cropper the preacher , on that occasion *

Sunderland New Chapel . On Friday , the 14 th May , the foundation-stone of a new building , to be dedicated to the worship of the One God , iu the name of the One Mediator between God and men , the Man Christ Jesus , was laid by the Rev . William Turner , of Newcastle , in the presence of
near four hundred persons , mauy of whom , no doubt , were brought together from curiosity , but whose respectful aud attentive demeanour during the whole of the service was gratifying to those who were engaged in the conducting of it . Mr . Turner commenced with a prayer , chiefly selected from the Collects in the Consecration-office of the Church of
England . He theu delivered an Address , which we regret that our limits will not permit us to insert ; but which we are glad to hear is to be printed by the Newcastle Tract Society , as a companion to the Rev . W . Ware's Oration on laying the foundation-stone of the Scooud Unitarian Church at New York , which that Society hus already printed . The Rev .

Christian Tract Society . The Twenty-first Anniversary of this Society was held in the Worship-Street Chapel , on Thursday , May J 3 th , when the Rev . Dr . Thomas Rees was called to the Chair . The Treasurer ' s Report was first read , from which it appeared that there was a
balance in his hands of £ tb . Ss . 6 d . This Report having been received and ordered to be printed , the Committee ' s Report was read by Mr . Clenaell , in the unavoidable absence of the Secretary The following are those parts which will probably be the most interesting to the readers of the Repository .
* ' Your Committee finding it necessary to the execution of certaiu orders to reprint two of the Tracts , have accordingly , in the last year , again sent to the press No . 11 , The Old Soldier , by Mrs . Price ; and No . 13 , Henry Goodunn , written by Mrs . Mary Hughes ; the excellence of these two Tracts has * been abundantly attested by a most extensive circulation ,
which induced your Committee to print of each 2000 copies . Besides these there have also been reprinted , for the same reason , 2000 copies of a small penny Tract , No . 20 in the Society ' s series , eii ^ titled The Good IVife . Having to reprint these Tracts , in the present state of the Society ' s funds , it has been fonnd
impracticable to print such uew Tracts as the interests of the Society might seem to require ; or to follow up the plan begun last year of publishing in an improved form , with wood-cuts , such Tracts as have beeu found to be peculiarly acceptable , and conducive to the objects of the Society .
•* Two manuscript Tracts have been placed this year in the hands of the Committee , both in their judgment of considerable value . Your Committee have this year printed a new Tract , No . 57 in the Society's series , entitled * Youtttftd Integrity , or The History < tf Eliza Curtis . For this Tract the Society in indebted to the same Lady who favoured them with The Hixtarp of the Widow Brown , and The ViUa&t
Philanthropists . These Tracts appear to the Committee to be distinguished b y sound sense , and practical views of the lr » c
