These changes are made fn obedieuce to reports of Committees of the Union and of the Conzregational Council at Detrolt.

This report states thatjn the last ten years the average recefpts of the Unlon have been $25,085, and the averaese vearly cxpenses $10,173. Last year was u dis- astrous one, the 2ross amounts paid to churches being §21,158, of which $12,809 were specials, while the expenses were $0,771. ‘The Commit- tees recommend that the specttic work of church buwlding be made dis- tinctive in the nzme and in the constitution of the Soclety, and that other work now contewmplated In the ‘constizution be transferred to more appropriute agencics: that there should be but one Sceretary who shall de- vote his whale time to the Society: that the ex peuses should be brought to the lowest possible voint, and toat for the sake of economy und etticlency au effort be made to connect the office in New York with the rooms of the American Home Missionary Soclety.
