missions. Not a numerous foreign subscription list does it enjoy,
but at least one copy reaches this remote region. Another thing
illustrated is the close connection between the home and foreign
fields of missions. A few years ago the Indians and Alaskans were
counted in the foreign missionary field. Now the American Missionary
Association conducts work in these fields. Porto Rico has just come
into the responsibility of our home work. And so in the progress of
these great missionary movements the emphasis is increasingly upon
_missions_, and not upon any artificial distinctions. It is the
coming of the Kingdom of God which the providences make important.

If any reader of the AMERICAN MISSIONARY has a copy of the Annual
Report of the American Missionary Association for 1849, he will
confer a favor by dropping a note to the editor of this magazine.
This volume is desired for one of our theological libraries.
