FRANK LESLIE’S
SUNDAY MAGAZINE.
T. DE WITT TALMAGE, Editor.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
With 1883 the SUNDAY MAGAZINE entered on a new series, with
the distinctive purpose of providing such a variety of reading
matter of the highest literary merit (entertaining, chaste and
instructive) as shall commend it to Christian parents and those
engaged in the instruction of the young. Its purpose is to provide
the healthiest, yet most sparkling literature, for young and old.
DR. TALMAGE is the real editor, and intends to put his best work
into it. Writers of the greatest acknowledged excellence contribute
to its pages, and THE ILLUSTRATIONS are of a higher grade than any
that have hitherto appeared in the Magazine.
Among other unique attractions are the following twelve questions
answered by the leaders of each denomination:
WHAT IS METHODISM?
WHAT IS MORAVIANISM?
WHAT IS LUTHERANISM?
WHAT IS EPISCOPALIANISM?
WHAT IS PRESBYTERIANISM?
WHAT IS SWEDENBORGIANISM?
WHAT IS CONGREGATIONALISM?
WHAT IS ROMAN CATHOLICISM?
WHAT IS THE BAPTIST CHURCH?
WHAT IS THE CHURCH OF THE DISCIPLES?
WHAT IS THE DUTCH REFORMED CHURCH?
WHAT IS THE REFORMED EPISCOPAL CHURCH?
Rev. Moses D. Hoge, D.D., Richmond, Va.; Rev. Charles H. Hall,
D.D., Brooklyn, N.Y.; Rev. Chauncey Giles, D.D., Philadelphia, Pa.;
Rev. Isaac Errett, D.D., Cincinnati, O.; Rev. Daniel Curry, D.D.,
N.Y.; Rev. Edwin F. Hatfield, D.D., N.Y.; Rev. F. C. Ewer, D.D.,
N.Y.; Bishop Charles E. Cheney, Chicago, Ill., and others will
answer the above questions.
SUNDAY MAGAZINE is $3 per Year, Postage Free; 4 Copies, $9; 6
Copies, $12.
Liberal terms to agents. Specimen Copy to any address for 10 cents.

THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION.
* * * * *
THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY.
* * * * *
No Christian family can afford to be without missionary
intelligence, and no missionary society can afford to be without
readers of its publications; it had better give them to the readers
without pay than to have no readers. Missionary zeal will die in
the churches without missionary intelligence.
But it would be far better for both the societies and the readers
if missionary news were paid for. This would give the magazine
attentive perusal and the society relief from the reproach of a
large expense for publication. Missionary publications should be
put on a _paying basis_. Aside from a free list to life members,
ministers, etc., the cost of publication should be made up by
paying subscribers and advertisements.
We are anxious to put the AMERICAN MISSIONARY on this basis. We
intend to make it worth its price, and we ask our patrons to aid us:
1. More of our readers can take pains to send us either the
moderate subscription price (50 cents), or $1.00, naming a friend
to whom we may send a second copy.
2. A special friend in each church can secure subscribers at
club-rates (12 copies for $5 or 25 copies for $10).
3. Business men can benefit themselves by advertising in a
periodical that has a circulation of over 20,000 copies monthly and
that goes to many of the best men and families in the land. Will
not our friends aid us to make this plan a success?
Subscriptions should be sent to H. W. HUBBARD, Treasurer, 56 Reade
st., New York, N.Y.
* * * * *
AIM AND WORK.
To preach the Gospel to the poor. It originated in a sympathy with
the almost friendless slaves. Since Emancipation it has devoted its
main efforts to preparing the FREEDMEN for their duties as citizens
and Christians in America, and as missionaries in Africa. As
closely related to this, it seeks to benefit the caste-persecuted
CHINESE in America, and to co-operate with the Government in its
humane and Christian policy toward the INDIANS.
STATISTICS FOR 1882.
CHURCHES: _In the South_—In District of Columbia, 1; Virginia,
1; North Carolina, 9; South Carolina, 2; Georgia, 14; Kentucky,
7; Tennessee, 4; Alabama, 14; Kansas, 2; Arkansas, 1; Louisiana,
17; Mississippi, 5; Texas, 6. _Africa_, 3. _Among the Indians_, 2.
Total, 88.
INSTITUTIONS FOUNDED, FOSTERED OR SUSTAINED IN THE
SOUTH.—_Chartered_: Hampton, Va.; Berea, Ky.; Talladega, Ala.;
Atlanta, Ga.; Nashville, Tenn.; Tougaloo, Miss.; New Orleans,
La., and Austin, Tex.—8. _Graded or Normal Schools_: Wilmington,
N.C.; Charleston, Greenwood, S.C.; Savannah, Macon, Atlanta, Ga.;
Montgomery, Mobile, Athens, Selma, Ala.; Memphis, Tenn.—11. _Other
Schools_, 38. Total, 57.
TEACHERS, MISSIONARIES AND ASSISTANTS.—Among the Freedmen, 336:
among the Chinese, 31; among the Indians, 6; in Africa, 16. Total,
389. STUDENTS.—In theology, 72; law, 28; in college course, 104;
in other studies, 9,404. Total, 9,608. Scholars taught by former
pupils of our schools, estimated at 150,000. Indians under the care
of the Association, 13,000.
WANTS.
1. A steady INCREASE of regular income to keep pace with the
growing work. This increase can only be reached by _regular_ and
_larger_ contributions from the churches, the feeble as well as the
strong.
2. ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS for our higher educational institutions, to
accommodate the increasing number of students; MEETING HOUSES for
the new churches we are organizing; MORE MINISTERS, cultured and
pious, for these churches.
3. HELP FOR YOUNG MEN, to be educated as ministers here and
missionaries to Africa—a pressing want.

Transcriber’s Notes
Obvious printer’s punctuation errors and omissions silently
corrected. Inconsistent hyphenation retained due to the
multiplicity of authors. Arithmetic errors in the receipts have
been retained as printed.
Images have been moved outside of paragraphs, resulting in page
numbers that are slightly off.
Changed “carrried” to “carried” on page 86. (our work begun and
carried)
Missing “a” inserted in “and” on the back cover (humane and
Christian policy)
