and was listened to with prose atten-
tion for nearly an hour. Her address
bad to do largely with the difficulties
the missionaries have to contend with,
owing to the determined opposition
on the part of the governinent to do
anything in the way of reform. She,
emphasized the meaningless dia,tacter

ties mfliated on any wno dared to re-,
nonnce it, and shelved that the hoPeo(
