Excerpt from A Charge Delivered in the Cathedral of Christ-Church Fredericton to the Clergy of the Diocese Assembled at the Second Triennial Visitation of John, Bishop of Fredericton Providence relieves and blesses us by compensation. The country Clergy have long and fatiguing distances to travel in search of their Parishioners, but they have air and exercise, which are much more conducive-to health (even with great'fatigue) than the continual cone finement in close and unwholesome rooms. Without constant visiting, the young. Can never be properly prepared for Confirmation, and I impute to some little deficiency in this respect, the scanty numbers who presented themselves to me in some places in the Province, as compared with less populous districts. [none or two Missions, the number was painfully small. The complaints which have been occa' sionally made to me on this subject by respectable Communicants of opr Church deserve just consideration, all, they amount to no more than atwish for spiritual benefit from the person appointed to bestow it. I will enlarge no longer on this point, only entreating you to bear in mind, that if Visiting be neglected, the most important part of your parochial work is left undone.
