Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 3: August, 1845 Foreign department. - Liberia Mission - This mission has suffered for want of labourers, but is nevertheless prospering. In the Colonies of Libe ria and Cape Palmas, and among the native tribes in the interior of Western Africa, there are' 10 or 12 mission stations, 15 missionaries, and 837 mem bers in Church fellowship. Under the care of these missionaries are 16 day schools, having 363 pupils, and 12 Sunday schools, with 488 pupils - 120 Of these children are natives. The Monrovia Seminary is under the temporary care of the Rev. Francis Burns, and the Africa's Luminary is also to be continued for the present. Rev. John Seys, late superintendent of the Liberia Mission, submitted a resolution to the effect that the success of the missionary enterprise of the M. E. Church generally, and especially in Western Africa, called for most devout gratitude to God, and constituted a most powerful incentive to ih creased effort, on the part of the Church, for the conversion of the world.
