1 This column presents a. statement of the average numbers attending at one service only on the Sabbath, and it has beeu pointed out that this mode of calculating the nttendnnce does not render the returns of the different denomtnutions strictly comparable, in~smuch as, in connection with some rcltgJous bodies, there are several services held on the same day, attach of which an entirely distinct set of worsliippers attends, whil::.t, in the case of other denominations, the attendance at subsequent servJces always consists, to a. greater or less extent, of the some iudividuals as were comprised in the llrst oongreg•tlon.-' These figures are copied from the return furnished for the year !87l• as the Head of the Denomination stated tbnt he could not ~llcct the inform~tion for 1874.-' These ftgnres are only to he taken as approximate.-• Many of these nre protlably schoolhouses.

It is sap :posed that ea.ch in reality amounted to not less than sooo. The deficiency has chietly a1·Lsen ftom the fact that tho system ofregiste:Mng Births and Deaths was entirelv changed during the year 1853, and the new system was not at :first properly undel'St..">od. In cons€.qu.ence of this, and also owing to the unsettled :state of the gohlfieltl population, it is known that many children burn were noither baptized nor rcgistcNd, and many po.rsons who died -were buried without registration or :funeral S(ll'Vice.
