Wk have great pleasure in presenting our :. readers ^ vith .. another , iof _ M . r Philp ' s communications to the Committee of the British and Foreign Unitarian Association . It is not so full as we could wish . It has not so much of detail as we think it would
please the friends of the Mission to be made acquainted with ; but it is nevertheless" aii i interesting document , both for the information which it does g . ive , and- the spirit which it displays . . We again say' God speed ' to the : dilig ent and warm-h ear te 4 labourer and his excellent coadjutors .

Both myself and the teachers who labour t the school , and occasionally assist in the other ^ services of the chapel , feel more and more impressed with the necessity of inculcating moral and religious principles j considering them of first-rate importance .
