THE THIRTY-THIRD VOLUME

OF THE

AMERICAN MISSIONARY,

1879.

We have been gratified with the constant tokens of the increasing appreciation of the MISSIONARY during the year now nearly past; and purpose to spare no effort to make its pages of still greater value to those interested in the work which it records.

Shall we not have a largely increased subscription list for 1879?

A little effort on the part of our friends, when making their own remittances, to induce their neighbors to unite in forming Clubs, will easily double our list, and thus widen the influence of our Magazine, and aid in the enlargement of our work.

Under the editorial supervision of Rev. GEO. M. BOYNTON, aided by the steady contributions of our intelligent missionaries and teachers in all parts of the field, and with occasional communications from careful observers and thinkers elsewhere, the “AMERICAN MISSIONARY” furnishes a vivid and reliable picture of the work going forward among the Indians, the Chinamen on the Pacific Coast, and the Freedmen as citizens in the South and as missionaries in Africa.

Patriots and Christians interested in the education and Christianizing of these despised races are asked to read it, and assist in its circulation. Begin with the next number and the new year. The price is only Fifty Cents per annum.

SUBSCRIPTION DEPARTMENT.

Besides giving news from the Institutions and Churches aided by the Association among the Freedmen in the South, the Indian tribes, the Chinese on the Pacific Coast, and the Negroes in Western Africa, it will be the vehicle of important views on all matters affecting the races among which it labors, and will give a monthly summary of current events relating to their welfare and progress.

We publish =25,000= copies per month, and shall be glad to increase the number indefinitely, knowing from experience that to be informed of our work is to sympathize with, and desire to aid it.

The Subscription Price will be, as formerly, =Fifty Cents a Year, in Advance=. We also offer to send =One Hundred copies to one address=, for distribution in Churches or to clubs of subscribers, for $30., with the added privilege of a Life Membership to such person as shall be designated. The Magazine will be sent gratuitously, if preferred, to the persons indicated on Page 318. Donations and subscriptions should be sent to

H. W. HUBBARD, Ass’t Treas., 56 READE STREET, NEW YORK.

ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT.

A limited space in our Magazine is devoted to Advertisements, for which our low rates and large circulation make its pages specially valuable. Our readers are among the best in the country, having an established character for integrity and thrift that constitute them valued customers in all departments of business.

To Advertisers using display type and Cuts, who are accustomed to the “RULES” of the best Newspapers, requiring “DOUBLE RATES” for these “LUXURIES,” our wide pages, fine paper, and superior printing, with =no extra charge for these cuts=, are advantages readily appreciated, and which add greatly to the appearance and effect of business announcements.

We are, thus far, gratified with the success of this department, and solicit orders from all who have unexceptionable wares to advertise.

Advertisements must be received by the TENTH of the month, in order to secure insertion in the following number. All communications in relation to advertising should be addressed to

J. H. DENISON, Adv’g Agent, 56 READE STREET, NEW YORK.

☞ =Our friends who are interested in the Advertising Department of the “American Missionary” can aid us in this respect by mentioning, when ordering goods, that they saw them advertised in our Magazine.=

Transcriber’s Notes:

Punctuation and spelling were changed only where the error appears to be a printing error. Inconsistent hyphenation was retained as there are numerous authors. The punctuation changes are too numerous to list; the others are as follows:

“Atlanla” changed to “Atlanta” on page front01 (Atlanta, Ga.--Students’ Reports)

“Benjamim” changed to “Benjamin” on page 353 (Mrs. Benjamin James, of the Mendi Mission)

“he” changed to “the” on page 353 (The institutions of the Association are excellently located.)

“ou rchildren” changed to “our children” on page 373 (but will bring in our children)

“contrymen” changed to “countrymen” on page 376 (Why is it that your countrymen come)

“Riudge” changed to “Rindge” on page 394 (Rindge. Cong. Ch. and Soc.)

“Fon du Lac” changed to “Fond du Lac” on page 396 (Fond du Lac: Ladies’ Miss. Soc.)

Ditto marks in tables were replaced with the text they represent, in order to help the text line up properly in all media.
