Jesse Greene It has been my intention since the death of Mr. Greene, to lay before the public a sketch of his life, and labors. I feel assured that many of his friends and acquaintances, in this country, are better prepared, from many considerations, to give a just view of his character, in its various relations to the church, than myself. But I am not sure that such would take upon themselves the task; for our efficient men have generally a full amount of labor of their own, without engaging in a work of this sort: and while I feel unwilling that the virtues of such a man, should in a few years be covered in oblivion, or his name forgotten by the present generation, I cannot but realize the many disadvantages I shall of necessity labor under, and it is with timidity that I have entered upon the work. The probability too, of not meeting the expectations of Mr. Greene's numerous friends, is well calculated to embarrass one, who is but a novice in writing for the public eye. My object has been to lay before the reader a simple relation of facts, connected with the life of one, who for many years, stood as a beacon light to all who wished to secure an interest in the skies; and in so doing I have not designed to extol the virtues of the dead above measure, or to set up a model that cannot be imitated, but to relate truth unembellished by enthusiastic partiality; and as free as possible from those extravagancies which frequently proceed from feelings bordering on idolatry. I would much rather hold up to the mind's eye a true portrait of his character, than to dress him in the tinselled garb of eulogy, so that his friends would not be aide to recognise him. I have availed myself of every means by which I might obtain information that would add interest to the work. I have personally addressed a number of his cotemporaries and colleagues in labor; and while I feel much indebted to those who have kindly communicated to me what was within their reach, I have to regret that others have been entirely silent upon the subject. Some who had promised their aid, and were well prepared by their long acquaintance with Mr. Greene, to contribute greatly to the subject, have been removed by death. Among this number, was the Rev.

My love to the preachers and yourself, and believe me, Yours, sincerely, A. MONROE. I find the following letter, officially written, to the Bishops and members of the Missouri Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, dated Pittsburgh, August 19th, 1835: To the Bishops and Members of the Missouri Conference: At the late session of the Pittsburgh Annual Conference, in this place, a committee on the subject of a Book Depository, presented a Report, which was adopted, I believe, unanimously, whereupon the following resolution was Resolved, That the Secretary be instructed to furnish the Missouri and Tennessee Conferences with a copy of the above named resolution.

To us, there appear many strong reasons why such a one should be established. Among the many reasons that may be mentioned, we notice the following: Pittsburgh, from its present size, location aud future prospects, presents a location for a Depository second to none in the West....
