And our true policy is to promote the liberal support of our pastors by every means within our power. Let us not muzzle the mouth that treadeth out the corn — surely not the mouth of them who bring us the word of the Lord. From the returns now submitted to me in your name, and presented to you in this report, I regret to find that so little attention is given in the churches to benevolent contributions, prayer meetings for missions, Sabbath schools, to the seamen's cause, and to revivals ; and ...I regret also to find, that there exists so small a number of maternal meetings, and female prayer meetings — yet, it is interesting to observe, that religion is, by universal consent, the one thing, and the only thing that can really make a people happy. Would that such a vital interest might be felt in our Zion, by all our members, as would draw forth from every one of them the declaration of a deeply settled purpose, " Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek thy good. " As the Associated Baptists of Rhode Island, we have met in this Convention to consider by what means we may sow to better advantage the good seed of the word of God in the soil of our fathers, and bring to greater ma- 112 turity that which was sown by them.
