Seite 153 - The large body of European and American missionaries settled in India bring their various moral influences to bear upon the country with the greater force, because they act together with a compactness which is but little understood. Though belonging / ' to various denominations of Christians, yet from the nature of their work, their isolated position, and their long experience, they have been led to think rather of the numerous questions on which . f they agree, than of those on which they differ,...
Seite 153 - No body of men pays greater attention to the study of the Native languages than the Indian Missionaries. With several Missionary Societies (as with the Indian Government) it is a rule that the younger Missionaries shall pass a series of examinations in the vernacular of the district in which they reside ; and the general practice has been, that all who have to deal with Natives who do not know English shall seek a high proficiency in these vernaculars. The result is too remarkable to be overlooked....
Seite 156 - ... schoolmasters, theological schools have in recent years provided a full supply of Native ministers and clergy, while the congregations have steadily multiplied, and the character of the whole people has been raised. Three missions have been carried on among them by the Church Missionary Society, the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, and the London Missionary Society, and a large and influential' English staff has conducted the affairs of these missions.
Seite 156 - Taking them together, these rural and aboriginal populations of India, which have received a large share of the attention of the Missionary Societies, now contain among them a quarter of a million Native Christian converts. The principles they profess, the standard of morals at which they aim, the education and training which they receive, make them no unimportant element in the Empire which the Government of India has under its control. These populations must greatly influence the communities of...
Seite 153 - The labours of the foreign missionaries in India assume many forms. Apart from their special duties as public preachers and pastors, they constitute a valuable body of educators ; they contribute greatly to the cultivation of the Native languages and literature, and all who are resident in rural districts are appealed to for medical help to the sick.
Seite 157 - This view of the general influence of their teaching, and of the greatness of the revolution which it is silently producing, is not taken by missionaries only. It has been accepted by many distinguished residents in India, and experienced officers of the Government, and has been emphatically endorsed by the high authority of Sir Bartle Frere.
Seite 30 - Who, after having communicated to each other their respective full powers, and found them to be in good and due form, have agreed upon and concluded the following Articles : — ARTICLE I.
Seite 157 - Without pronouncing an opinion upon the matter, the government of India cannot but acknowledge the great obligation under which it is laid by the benevolent exertions of these 600 missionaries, whose blameless example and self-denying labours are infusing new vigour into the stereotyped life of the great populations placed under English rule, and are preparing them to be in every way better men and better citizens of the great empire in which they dwell.
Seite 157 - But the missionaries in India hold the opinion that the winning of these converts, whether in the cities or in the open country, is but a small portion of the beneficial results which have sprung from their labours. No statistics can give a fair view of all that they have done. They consider that their distinctive teaching, now applied to the country for many years, has powerfully affected the entire population. The moral tone of their preaching is recognised and highly approved by multitudes who...
Seite 154 - Provinces. The effort has not yet much affected the other provinces of India. " The great progress made in these missionary schools, and the area which they occupy, will be seen from the following fact. They now contain 60,000 scholars more than they did twenty years ago. The figures are as follows: In 1852, the scholars numbered 81,850; and in 1872 the number was 142,952. " The high character of the general education given in the college department of these institutions may be gathered from the...
