_____________________________
Note:As this work may fall into the hands of some who know not the differences between the three Presbyterian bodies, it may be remarked that the principal differences are, that the Established Church of Scotland is paid by the State, and allows the right of patronage: the Free Church holds in theory the right of Christian governments to endow and support religion, i.e. Presbytery, but rejects patronage; while the United Presbyterian Church disclaims both, and holds that governments should not tax the people to support religion, nor should Christian churches accept of State pay. In contending for these respective principles, that greatest of Christian virtues, Charity, should be called into lively exercise. Editor.
This Mission has existed about sixty-one years and is maintained in part by the Committees in England at an average cost of £6,000 per annum. Changes are occasionally made in the appointments of their Ministers, but the following are the Stations for 1851 with a few other particulars. By Rev. J. Edmondson.

This body, and Mr. Pinnock's formed one, till divisions and contentions arose between them. We are not able to state any thing of this section, as Mr. Baxter, to whom application was made for information, did not return a reply.
Some years ago, there were three or four congregations who styled themselves by the above title. We have not heard to them for some time, and suppose that the people have returned to the Societies with which they were formerly connected.
