Conclusion.
Our duties here are short but important, and their value will depeud upon the way in which they are followed up, during the next twelve months. Impulsive aud spasmodic efforts are of little use ; we can get up no sensational details of our work, we are too much in the midst of it for that. This will lead us to look more closely at its spiritual aspect and to seek for the enthusiasm which genuine belief in the creed of our religion always engenders. If it is a religion worth having — it is worth supporting, it is worth advocating, it is worth handing down to those of teuder years, it is worth supplying to those who have it not. If it is to be acclimatized in New Zealand, which may God grant — then let us who are still busy about its planting, take care that as far as we avc concerned it has every thing in its favour.
