CREEKS.-A book in the Creek language, || vest of the world, and the repeated deaths prepared by Mr. Fleming, containing a short sermon and twenty hymns, amounting to 35 pages has been recently printed at Boston, the edition consisting of one thousand copies.

MACKINAW.--Letters from Mackinaw, dated early in February, state that the missionschool there was experiencing the gracious influences of the Holy Spirit, and that it was hoped that fifteen or eighteen of the pupils in the school, and twenty or twenty-five others, in the village and garrison, had passed from death unto life.

AUXILIARY OF NEW YORK CITY AND BROOKLYN.

THE annual meeting was held at Masonic Hall, Feb. 11th, Z. Lewis, Esq., the presi

with an address. Prayer was offered by the Rev. President Bates of Middlebury College; after which the report of the treasurer was read by W. W.

Rev. Messrs. Winslow, from the Ceylon mission, and Ramsey, from Bombay, addressed the meeting, making statements concerning the missionary fields with which they are respectively connected. Rev. Asa D. Smith, of the city of New York, then addressed the meeting on the following resolution presented by him
