Anniversary of the British and Foreign Unitarian Association , The Annual Meeting of this Society was held on Wednesday , 25 th ult ., in Finsbury Unitarian Chapel . A large and respectable congregation assembled for the religious services of the morning . The Rev . E . Chapman , of Deptford ,
offered the introductory prayer , and read the Scriptures . The chapter selected
was 1 Cor . xiu . The general prayer was offered by Rev . H . Acton , of Exeter . The sermon , justly characterized in the vote of thanks \ o the preacher a ' s " able and energetic , * was preached by the Rev . H . Hutton , of Birmingham , from Mark xii . 29—31 . The influence of an
enlightened faith in the Divine Unity on the feelings with which we contemplate , worship , and serve the Deity , was portrayed with great animation and effect . The Rajah Rammohun Roy was present , though evidently suffering under severe bodily indisposition . He has attended one or other of the Unitarian chapels in

The latter shewed that
there had been an active and not unsuccessful attention to the objects of the Association in our country ; and that the great weapons of spiritual warfare , the pulpit and the press , had been used to good purpose . The strongest interest , however , was produced by what related to the Foreign department . Our second native congregation iu India , that of
Abraham Chiniah at Secunderabad , is thriving ; and its worthy pastor is now assisted by Theophilus Roberts , the eldest son of our excellent missionary at Madras . A good account was also given of the behaviour , disposition , and progress of hia second . son , Joseph Roberts , now under the care of Rev . J . R . Beard , of Manchester . Many very interesting statements were made of indications of a
progress towards pure Christianity in various and distant countries . The speedy establishment of an Unitarian congregation at the Cape of Good Hope , and of another in Upper Canada , appears highly probable . The Report concludes thus : " Vour Committee deem it necessary
