priest, sorry to be absent so long from the charms of his seraglio, may hurry homeward without caring how many colporteurs may have visited the town. He feels sure that the Gospel, which procures so many creature comforts for his domestic establishment, will not be overturned till he is done eating and drinking. This remark, however, applies mostly to those who may be called the country pastors.

From these points of view and some others which I might mention, it will appear that the colporteur system is peculiarly suited to the wants of New Mexico. It is unimportant at present whether colporteurs or Missionaries, properly so called, are engaged in this work. It is the work, the work, that is needed, and needed now. Some five or six natives have been baptized by our Missionaries in that Territory, and a considerable interest is manifesting itself in some districts; but so far as I have been informed, all this good has been effected chiefly by colporteur labor, performed in part by our Missionaries, and in part by colporteurs under the patronage of this Society.

I have been asked, "What are the prospects of success in New Mexico ?" When this inquiry is resolved into two others, the reply is not so difficult. First, what proportion of our strength should be employed in that Territory? How many men can wisely be drafted from our ministerial corps and sent among that stationary population? How much of our funds should be designated to a field so expensive and so much less promising as some other fields? This inquiry settled, the next is, In what manner can such a judicious outlay of strength be brought most efficiently into contact with the irreligion of the land. Having sent there all the force God's providence has placed at our disposal for such a work, what must be the plan of the campaign, and what must be the order of battle? Our General Government is at this very time called upon to answer a question similar to this. For more than a year past the Indians of New Mexico have been at war, and our troops, who carried the American flag so bravely through the terrible scenes of Cerro Gordo, Cherubusco and Chapultepec, and finally unfurled it in the plaza of the Mexican capital, have failed to subdue that handful of Indians. Why? Not because the courage, skill, or endurance of our army is at fault, nor because vast resources have not been expended, but because the mode of warfare is not adapted to the character of the foe. And when we have designated for that country all the power which its circumstances require, and when that power is brought to bear against the enemy in the most direct and efficient manner, then nothing but success ought to be expected. How much or how speedy that success will be, is not for man to inquire. Missionary duty rests on the basis of a command, and not on any conjecture as to the result. It is enough for us to know that if our available resources are properly employed, the success will be just such as heaven ordains. And I believe, that with a few Missionaries located in the most populous districts of New Mexico, and with a sufficient number of colporteurs to act in concert with them, radiating from the different centres, and diffusing God's true and imperishable light wherever they go, from the nearest to the remotest towns-I believe that such a system of effort vigorously carried on, will, in the end, accomplish such results, that when we stand before the Judge of all the earth, we shall have the consciousness of fidelity to our trust, and shall hear the enrapturing plaudit falling from the lips of our Lord, Well done, good and faithful servants.
