The Church Courts.—By the time this issue is in the hands of most of our readers the Assemblies of the Established, United Free, and Free Churches will have concluded their proceedings. The subject of main interest before the Assemblies of the Established and United Free Churches was the question of Union. We hope to make reference to this and other matters that were discussed in the Assemblies in a later issue. As the Magazine was passing through the press while our Synod was in session, we cannot give a report of the same until the July issue, when a full report will be given.
Collection for this Month.—By appointment of the Synod the Collection for the Aged and Infirm Ministers, Ministers’ Widows and Orphans Fund is to be taken up during the month of June. As our readers know, there are new claims upon this Fund.
