Amount of donations from May 21, to June 20, 4,371 23.

A box of clothing is stated to have been sent last summer from Lancaster, N. H. for the Brainerd School, by the way of Portland. It is presumed, that this is one out of three or more boxes, which have been received from Portland, at different times, without any ac companying letter, or any notice from the donors. A number of boxes have been received, in like circumstances, from other places; generally with a direction on the box, stating to what mission it was intended to be sent. All boxes, &c. received before the 19th of Febru ary last, have been forwarded, according to directions, in cases where directions were communicated, and to the places where most needed, when no directions were given.

It is particularly requested, that all boxes, &c. designed for any of the missions of the Board, should have a fairly written or printed direction on the boxes themselves, with the names of the places from whence they are sent; and that they should invariably be accompanied by a schedule of contents, with the directions, &c. to be left with the Teasurer. In several instances, boxes have reached our missionaries, without any indication from whence they were received, or any communication to the Treasurer on the subject. It will be seen at once, that donations sent in this manner cannot be properly acknowledged. Sometimes it has been ascertained, that a verbal message was sent; but such messages are very insecure and liable to mistake. Sometimes written directions are contained in the boxes; and this is very well, so far as the missionaries are concerned, but it is of no use to the Treasurer, as the boxes are generally sent forward unopened. It is desirable that every box should contain a schedule for the use of the missionaries.

The following boxes have been received since our last publication.

A box of clothing from Canton, Ms. containing 46 garments, 10 pair of hose, and 28 yards of cloth, forwarded by Miss Frances Crane.

A box of clothing from ladies in Winchendon, by Mrs. Whiton & Mrs. Pilsbury,value $18. A box of clothing from the Female Western Mission Society, Worcester, containing 56 garments,33 pair of stockings, 3 pair of shoes, and a hat, for the benefit of our western Indians. A trunk of clothes for the Choctaw Indians was received in Oct. last from Brimfield, valued at nearly $40,

A box of clothing containing 35 articles, presented by the Acton, Ms. Female Mite Society, for the mission at Brainerd. Supposed value $18.

A box of clothing from the Dorcas Society of Hawley, Ms. containing blankets, sheets, &c. together with wearing apparel, either for Brainerd or Elliot. Estimated value, $68 88, by Polly Grout, Treasurer.

A box from Shelburne, Ms.

A box from ladies in Medway, for the mission at Elliot, by Mrs. Ide.

A box from Nelson, N. H.

A box from the Female Reading Society in Croyden, N. H. for the mission at Brainerd, by Hannah Haven, Secretary.

The Board are under peculiar obligations to the Rev. Mr. Jenks for several donations of books; but particularly for his valuable addition to the Library of the Palestine Mission as described in the following letter; which was written to the Treasurer, in answer to a request, that a list of the books might be furnished to be preserved.

MY DEAR SIR,

Boston, June 23, 1820.

I must acknowledge myself remiss in not furnishing you before with a catalogue of the volumes &c. contributed to the library of our missionaries to Palestine, from my own collection. It may prevent your sending duplicates, and assist in forming an estimate of what would still be desirable.

The manuscripts consisted of

1. A sheet of paradigms of Syriac nouns and verbs.

2.

Do.

Persian Do.

in the Nustaleek hand, as Sir W. Jones's grammar, of which they had a copy, was printed in the Nuskh. Note S. Rousseau's ed. is in Taleek.

3. A Comparative view of the ancient and modern order of the Arabic alphabet with that of the Hebrew.

4. A collection of about 16 alphabets, mostly Oriental, including the Estrangelo-Syriac, and Spanish and Italian Rabbinic Hebrew.
