These two missioners are now resting preparatory, to their visit to Glasgow. Dr and Mrs Chapman being at their home near Xew York, and Mr and Mrs Alexander havin? recently reached their English home. The coming mission in Glasgow has already roused much interest —it does not begin until October. Both of the great Scottish Assemblies—the Church of Scotland's and that of the* United Tfree Church —received with cordiality deputations that waited upon them to ask practical sympathy in the evangelistic campaign. That sympathy -(-as readily forthcoming, and the Glasgow mission b'.ds fair to be the most memorable Scotland has seen, great as some previous missions have been. Interviewed at sev.eral points of thfir journeyings, both Dr. Chapman and Mr, Alexander have spoken of the success of the Now Zealand work. Dr. Chapman has described the Auckland mission as the best held in any Australasian citiy. H is significant that an Auckland minister—the Rev. M. Turner, of the East Street Methodist Mission, has been influenced by Dr. Chapman to accept the post of organiser of the British campaign, and has left New Zealand to take up that responsible, though temporary task.
