 iiulii' nnan-Boeaking churches in the 



lulled States, was begun in 1864. Tin r;

 their growtli in ton years : 



Adding the statistics of the Methodist Epis-

 of German Methodism is shown to be seven 

 conferences, 534 traveling preachers, 426 local 

 preachers, 45,099 members, and 43,673 Sun- 

 day-school scholars. 



The annual meeting of the General Mission- 

 ary Committee was held November llth. The 

 treasurer reported the receipts to the 31st of 

 October to have been $675,080.32, showing a 

 decrease from the previous year of $5,756.32.

 had marked the year be taken into considera- 

 tion. Tho disbursements had been: On account 

 of foreign missions, $243,607.75 ; of domestic 

 missions, $409,249.03 ; of incidental, office, 

 and other expenses, $50,998.48 : total, $703,-
