The daily increafe of pious officers in the army in India, and the truly laudable manner in which fomc of them employ their talents and influence, are things cal¬ culated to afford pleafure of the moft re- fined nature to the lovers of truth.

Many of them being perfons of liberal education, and well acquainted with the languages of India, are capable of ren¬ dering great fervice to the caufe of Chn's tianity. By letters from various quarters, it appears that fome engage in translating parts of the Holy Scriptures; others in correcting foTtner verfiona ; fome afiift in fuperintending the education of native children ; others liberally Contribute to their rapport ; fome illuftrate the hiftory and curiums of the countries around them by their writings, and thu6 furnifh a col¬ lateral auxiliary to the fpread of Divine knowledge ; others encourage the intlruc tion of the children of European foldiers. —Some take the lead in Bible Aff<>cia- tions ; others have fevtral fchools, taught under their own perfonal infpe&ion, and fupported folely by themfelves and their families.
