Cadmium sulfide thin films were deposited on glass substrate by Chemical Mist Deposition from solutions containing equimolar (0.1M) cadmium chloride and thiourea [(NH$_2$)$_2$CS] at a mist velocity of 1.6m/sec. Substrate temperatures were ranged between 200$^{\circ}C$ and 400$^{\circ}C$. The microstructure and semiconducting property of the films were investigated using SEM, X-ray diffraction, UV transmittance measurement and four point probe method. All the films have hexagonal structure and diffraction patterns indicate that the intensity of (112) and (101) reflections increase with increasing substrate temperature, whereas (002) reflection substrate temperature, whereas(002) reflection decrease for substrate temperatures between 250$^{\circ}C$ and 350$^{\circ}C$. The films prepared at lower temperature have a significant number of pinholes due probably to entrapped gaseous reaction. Optical transmittance of the films deposited at 350$^{\circ}C$ was about 75%. Optical bandgap of the films were 2.43eV regardless of substrate temperature. The dark resistivity of the films decreased with increasing substrate temperature up to 300$^{\circ}C$ and increased with further increasing substrate temperature. The films were photosensitive and had dark-to-light resistivity ratios of about 10 at room temperature for a white-light photoexcitation intensity of 50mw/$\textrm{cm}^2$.
