BTOKE8’ ANNUAL REPOST. This is the brilliant noon of our sum- mer work. This muat have more light, more beat, more power, more eleva- tion, moro grandeur, wider .and more triumphant results than any one; in- deed, moro than all the other meetings together. This is the Mount Hood, whose snow-capped summit of purity, flashing in the sunlight, towers far above all surroundings, arresting atten-. tion when Bcoree of miles away. Hither the multitudes come with high expec- tations—“ blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the waters,” If the waters are not moved, it is a failure to them. Thousands, every, year, come with these expectations, and the num- bers continually increase. Hence, our solicitude always for the camp-meet- ing. We may fail physically, finan- cially, or in reputation, and recover, but if we fail spiritually in our access tb, and communion' with God, and in camp-meeting iaith and fervor, dark - ness gathers over the soul, hell rejoices, and good men grieve. We have not yet failed, and we never shall, if true to God. Let us then, no matter what men think, say or do, hold on to Him with a grip mighty as omnipotence itself. Our camp-meeting this year com- menced on Monday, August 20. On that day we spent ten consecutive hours at the Auditorium in prayer. Why ? That we might have God with us all through the meoting, for, without Him, we could not go up to battle. Our prayers wore heard, and the power camo. A sceno of grandeur followed in the’ evening. 8oventy ministers, em- bracing several different denomina- tions, Bome of them but recontly re- turned from foroign fields in China and Japan, two of the vonerable bishopB of the Methodist Episcopal Ohurch—Simp- son and Harris, with several clerical members of the Ocean Grove Camp- Meeting Association, were on the stand. Prof, Sweney had a large choir, full of the Songs of Bedeeming Love, and the audience numbered several thousand. The President introduced the solemn service, and Bishop Harris consecrated the elements, whioh were first given to the ministers kneeling together at the altar, and . then followed table after table, until 1,382 bad received the bread aud wine, in remembrance.of their oru- cified and risen Lord. At 5.45 on Tuesday morning, the con- secration meeting commenced in the Tabernacle, with Brother Andrews at its head. At 6.45 p. m., in the Audito- rium^ each day family prayers were held. The Yoke-Fellows bad meetings every day in the tent on Ocean Path- way. The Holiness meetings had their place each morning at 8.80 o’olock A.M. The Young People’s meetings were alBO ; held in the Temple^ at the same hour. Mrs. Lizzie Smith had her meetings at 1.80 p .m., in the Tabernacle. At 2 p.m., the Children’s meeting was held, in charge of Brother Thornley. A t 6.30 the; Vesper services were. held, led by Bev. 0. H. Yatman. All these were daily. At 1080 a . m. ol this day, our venerable and beloved senior Bishop SimpBon, who had retraced his steps all the way from Colorado to give the pres tige of his presence at our sea-side camp-meeting, preached the opening sermon, from the text, “ And to know, the love bf Christ, which paaseth knowl- edge, that ye might be filled with all tbe fullness of God,” Bph. 3:19. It was a sermon of great sweetness and sweep of spiritual power. Dr. Wtttmm followed in the afternoon; when amid the (lash- ings x>f divine truth; and the clash of spiritual armour, tbe warfare com- menced, and it seemed as if in the midst of the contest, hell yielded, and the powers of darkness falling back, the hosts of the redeemod rushed forward, and .ehoutlng victory, the victory waa gained. -.. So, sermon after sermon came, day after day, until on Wednesday evening, August 29th, they reaohed a matchless culmination, liko some lofty peak, lost in a glow of glory, where, .with our hearta burdened with blessedness, and our intellects wearied with tho vast and far-reachinn thoughts, we could go no farther. Sabbath, too, was peerless. The Love Feast in the morning—-the sermon which followed at the Auditorium by Dr. Nawman—the services in the Tab- ernacle, Temple, Helping Hand Tept, and at Reus’ and Lillagore’s pavilions, six in number, all held at the same time—all crowded—all spiritual, blessed,, heavenly— the Sabbath-sohool in the afternoon, with scores of children seek-' ing religion—the sermon afterward—the immense Surf Meeting, composed of many thousands—the meeting of Mrs. Smith held in the Tabernacle at the samo time— the sermon and ..vaet throngs at the Auditorium at night, al- gether, made it a day of mighty tidea and upheavals of enthusiastic blessed- ness, surrounded with an atmosphere like heaven, and on and over all, rested a canopy of glory like the effulgence which gathers around . the Eternal Throne. Including all the meetings held that day in Ocean Grove, there were prob- ably not loss than 20,000 persons who listened to the word of God. On Thursday morning at nine o’clock we assembled for the closing services. The occasion was solemn, yet joyfully triumphant. In so great an assemblage many will never witness such a scene again. Before another camp meeting oloses, some now present will be in the Eternal City. The exchange will be gldrlouB to them, yet the thought sub- dues our hearta, and dims our eyes with tears. There is a holy hush. Bosoms heave with intense emotion, A new life has been commenced in many souls, These will receive the commu- nion for the first time, while to others it will prove their last. Besides all this, there are gathered all ages, conditions, and denomina- tions. -There is no distinction of age, sex or color. Itis the Lord’s table. . “ One family, wo dwell In Him.’’ . There will be nothing nearer heaven, until we pass the boundary line and en- ter in. This is the type of. that, "Jesus said, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me.’ Then twenty little ones were dedicated to God in Holy Baptism, after which, one hundred min- isters of the Lord Jesus Christ distribut- ed the elements to nearly 1,600 com- municants. Among the interesting .fea- tures of these services is, that one table is filled with children, who have just found the Saviour. Bros. Thornley and Evans, who had labored with them, preceded by Prof. Sweney, singing— . , 'Precious Jewels,’ ': •• ;■ .'.. led them down the middle aisle to the altar, fifty or more, where they knelt in silence, and received the sacred em- blems of the Saviour’B death. All hearts were moved, and tears filled many eyes, while angels looked on with wondering joy, and Jesus said, “Of such is the kingdom of heaven.’ ” The President then addressed the congregation in a few words, returning thanks to ministers, people, choir and everybody who had helped on the bless- ed work during the ten days past, ex- horting all to increased activity and de- votion in the Mastor’s cause, and to.the maintenance of the rules and regula- tions of (Kean Grove. Then ministers and people, men, women and children marched twioe around the Auditorium, singing triumphant Bongs of joy, while the wondering multitudes looked on with subdued amazement, as to what these things should mean. . Returning to the stand deep silence reigned. Then, with closed eyes, and hands and hearts uplifted, the Presi- dent said, “ In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost,’! the bell striking after each name. “I pronounce the Ocean Grove oamp-meeting for 1883 at an end;’’ “Arid may the peace of God whioh passeth all understanding, keep your mindsand hearta in the knowledge and love of God, through' JesuB ChriBt Our Lord. Amen. Dr. Chalmers Bays,' that " valuable Christian teaohing in a Christian com- munity, is intensive rather than informa- tional. -. v. '. Four things indispose us. for prayer: Inordinate sadness-r-very high spirits—. ill temper—and a carnal, Worldly spirit. Influence of Prayor. What mighty works, are wrought through prayer, no tongue can tell. He who baa the ear of kings may in an unseen manner. manipulate human events; but who has the ear of the King of kings may sway eternal destinies.'1 He who prays in the Holy Ghost is a worker together with God; and he who can olaim the ear of an eternal King, and pour in-petitions from a filial heart, may be more influential in the affairs of men than monarcbs and statesmen, than courtiers and intriguers. 1The king’s heart ia in the hand of the Lord.” Men who cannot be moved by argument, or influenced by earthly considerations, yet yield- to Divine rule, and are aubjeot to the power of Him who answers prayer. It ib prayer in itself.that does all thiB. But it is the answor and the working of Him who heareth prayer. And it is not faith in prayer, but prayer in faith, that brings the blessings which we seek. “ More things are wrought by prayer, than thia world knows of.” Aa floods of light, coming from every distant orb, striking the earth at every conceivable angle, may change tbe t;ery conditions of human life, though we may be as ig- norant as Jacob, “ by what way is the light parted, which acattereth the east wind upon the earth;” aa electric cur- rents may move, unseen and unfelt by ua, and yet affect our mental and physi- cal nature and destiny; \as Orion' may bind us with its unseen bands, and the Pleiades may move ub unconsciously by their aweet influences; so, higher and mightier than ail these unseen, myateriouB powers, is tho power of that' all-prevading Spirit, the presence of Him above all and yet in you'alt, and who is ever with those who "worship the Father in spirit arid in truth.” And this Spirit not only begets within Our hearts the effectual, fervent prayers we offer, but by an almighty omnipresence controls, and rules, and guides, the thoughts of men as no earthly power can do. Let us learn then, that, how- ever weak and helpless we may be in the world’s estimation, we. may yet be helpers towether by prayer. Bara t bat will not hear our. voices, :will hear the secret whispering of the Holy Ghost hearta that will not respond to our en- treaties, may yet bend and melt beneath the influences of the eternal Spirit. And while prayer brings us nearer to the mercy-seat, and maintains halltifred communion between our own souls and God, it reaches out wide as the worid, and. from the dawn of life tothe gates of death, brings blessings on the sons of men.—The Christian, ohief occasions, when everybody knows that we are on our guard and at our best.' -,- - Whon the Lord dhose men for Gid- eon's army, he judged then^by the way in 'which they performed so simplo an sit as drinking from a spring. In onr Lord’s parable, it waa the man who had taken care of one pound faithfully, to Whom his master gave the rule of ten cities. God is judging every one bf us just now by the manner in which we do our Bimpleet tasks. A n d . his rule of judging is of universal application: He that is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much ; a'ndtfae that is unrighteous in a very little is unright- eous also in much.”—S. S. Tima. I need a clcBHHlnff duin^i within .-' My life must onco again begin; Now hope I need, and faata ronovfH, And moro than humai) fortitude; Now faith, noW- lov6, and strength to cabt ..

It is by the little word or deed of lov- ing kindness and lovirig sympathy that we make other heartB^lad, and that we win the love and gratitude of others. And it ia by the little word of thought- less or deliberate unkinduess of severity that we give pain, and that we leave sad or bitter memories of our unlovely course in the blinds of those whose love and respect.we might have won and held. It Is often true that— "A clouded face •* Strikes deeper than an angry blow.1 ’ . It -requires Constant watchfulness to guard our littlea in apeoch and conduct. It.is harder to be alwayB right in little things, than to be always right in great things. It ia easier to snow littleness in doing or the attempting of great things, than it is toahowgreatnesain the doing or attemptingof little things, But both these things are possible ; and both.of them are sure to be recoguiied, and to have their potency, whenever arid wherever they are manifested. We judge our fellows, we are judged ofothera.ond God judges us, by little things rather than those that are ob- viously'great things.:; It is the uncon- scious, the instinctive, and the impulr Bive word and sot of those whom we observe; rather than their more delib- erate and formal expressions of self, by which we shape our estimate of, them. And in the sathe way we are judged by the world about us.

Master, our Master, 01ctrit be That our leisure and rfest be Will with Thee : Thaology Nat Eoligion, Theology ia not religion. A man may be familiar with and accept com- ment&tors and catechisms, and be any thing but a Christian. Christianity is a life baaed upon the love and adoration of a Divine Person, not on the mere Assent to certain statements relativo to that person. Still our knowledge of Him must be founded upon an intelli- gent acquaintance with hiB oharacter and claims, and head arid heart must unite in making us bis consistent disci- ples. Aa regards our rotations , to God, •the Scriptures are our chief, and objec- tively, our only sources of information. The subjective spiritual experiences of ithe belieyer are an independent testi- mony which we are not now consider- ing." They are at first dependent upon the written Word, though they after- ward become an independent source of evidence of the greatest importance. Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.— Western Advocate.

GulhJie, Swell in Christ. Wouldst thou have much power against sin and much increase of holi- ness, let thine eye be much on Christ; set thine heart upon him ; let it dwell on him and be still with him. When Bin is likely to prevail in any kind, go to him and tell him of the insurrection of his enemies and inability to resist, and desire him to suppress them and to help thee against them, that they gain nothirig by their stirring but new wound. If thy heart begins to be taken with and moved towardB sin, lay it be- fore.him ; the beams of hia love shall eat out the fire of those sinful lusts, WouldBt thou have tby pride and. pas- sions and love of tho world and self-love killed, go sue for the virtue of his death and that will do it. Seek his spirit, the spirit of meekness and humility and divine love. Look on him and he will draw thy heart heavenward and unite it to himself and make it like himself.

Iri the afternoon, having rejuvinated ourselves from our life on the rolling deep, we went out passing up one of the hether hedge and furze-lined roadways, we met a lad of ten, and two or three little girls. “ Well sir,” addressing the lad, "are ypu going to8abbath-school ?”• " ’Am not a Protestant air,” waa the quick reply. “ Well, suppose not, do not Catholics go to Sabbatlwschool ?” But they hurried on, and getting past had a good laugh at our expense. VVe camo to an English Church. (Pro- testant Episcopal with us.) The build-' ing itself, and its HurroundingK were very beautiful. We ontored, a bright afternoon, everything attractive, but tbe congregation did not number over fifty. The clergyman, an exact counterpart of our friend, Hon. J. L. Hays, leas the vim, preached just, fifteen minutes, and with a benediction aerit us home. But we were glad of the opportunity to wor- ship God, and felt it was good to be there. In the ovening wo went to the Wesleyan Ohapel, anxious to hear a genuine Irish sermon, bu tourfriend and Brother, Rev. J. E; Irvine, an ovangel- ist, of America, who waa at Ocean Qrove last summer, holding a Beries of meetings here,, preaohed, and we bad. a good meeting. This is a hard Boil for ProteatantiBm. At night it waa a luxury to aleep without the sense of being rocked in the cradle of the deep. Monday morning, being attracted by the appearance of the long, low, sharp and beautiful little steamers •which glide fairily about the harbor, we em- barked for an hour's trip up tho beauti- ful river Lee. Wo went to the bow of the boat.of choice so we might have a good outlook. When the purser came ho charged us three pence.each. Bro. Thornley paid it. When we camebtick, still on the same boat, we passed to the stern so we might change our view: I gavo tho purser six pence, but He looked at me and aaid, “ two penco niorc, air.” How is that 1 naked, " why, you. are first-clasa, sir, aiid that is two pence 'more.”- Bow aecond-claas, stern- firsl- class. : W e laughed, right out in his face at such snobbish folly, but paid the: extra change, and then put on our firat- class airs, bought for a penny ! In the afternoon, through a first-clasa Irish rain, we went to Cork by rail ; distance 10 or 12 miles, and found grand enter- tainment at tho Imperial Hotel. At Wesley Chapel, where we worshiped at night, Rov. W. Guard, brother of our . late and lamented Thos. Guard, iB pas- tor, hilt much to our regret was absent. Rev. Mr. Lee, his colleague, greeted us kindly, and although my head was stil rocking with sea motion, would have mo speak. After meeting, sitting in the drawing room of our hotel writing, while all without waa dark, gloomy and wet, and wc, with all, feeling a little lonely, a boy, an Irish boy at that, p&ised through the gloom on the other side--of the narrow street whistling “ Yankee Doodle.” It was like the electric touch from tbe soft hand of friendship, or the sudden revival of au old and long lost tone, and laying down our pens, wo both burst into a joyous laugh, exelaimiug God blejs tbo boy that can whistle Yankee Doodle in the . land of the Queen. Did ,vou go to BUrnoy Caatle? Sure I Who would go to cork and not go there? It ia only six milea, and the road, smooth as a floor, stone walled on the right, hedged on the left, with the river Lee at your feet, and mansions belong- ing to lords and earls, at intervals-all the way, has the magnificence of ro- mance which I shall never forget. I never saw such roads as there are in Ireland I At the castle gate the lodge woman recognized our nationality at once, and said with a smile, “ It ia not visiting day, nir, but you arc always welcome every day in the week, aud Sundays, too, God bless ye.” It was evident she lived in the neighborhood of the far-famed Blarney stone. Never- theless, it waa pleasant to be thus ad- dressed, and we thanked her from -ou r hearts. But, indeed, it waa not all blar- ney, for Sir George Colthurst Bart, M. P.,.'the proprietor, when in our couutry a few years ago, waa ao handsomely entertained, that ou hia return he gave orders that Americans should be at all times admitted to his . grounds, and while we were welcomed with most cor- dial words, when we came out, a young Irish gentleman with throe ladies sought admission with great earnest, neaa, but in vain. But I weary you; and as Bro. Tborn- ley has described tbo castlo, a grand old ruin, full of incident and interest, I simply say, I reverently kissed the stone as best I could, and close with tho quo- tationof another verso of the immortal Bong, with ono verse of which Bro. Thornley onriohed hia description of the placo: . : ' ; ' ' “ It’a there's the daisy;. Ami the sweet carnation; . Thu bloominit pink, Ami the rose so fair, . The dittlUdou-lidllljv - : Likewise the Illy, All tlowcrs Unit .scent, . Tlie sweet fragraiit.alr." ' Whoever Bought the light of the rising sun by gazing into a dungeon? Look out upon the kindness and love of God our Saviour. It is a discovery of the person, olfices, beauty,' finished work, and freeness of God our Saviour, that fills tho heart with peace and the mouth with praise. Christian living and Christian charac- ter without Cliriat are impossibilities— with Christ they have been made a reality, before which the world haa ovor offered the homage of its admiration 4nd respoct. Let the ground of all religious action be obedionco; examino not why it is commanded, but observe it bocause it is commanded. Truo obedience noilher procrastinates nor questions. Our. character is but theBtampon our soul of the free choice of good or evil we have mado through life.

• Our cam p-m eeting this year com ­m enced on M onday, August 20. On that day we spent ten consecutive hours at the A uditorium in prayer. W hy ? That we m ight have God with us all through the m eoting, for, without H im , we could not go up to battle. Our prayers wore heard, and the power cam o. A sceno o f grandeur followed in th e ’ evening. 8oventy ministers, em ­bracing several different denom ina­tions, Bome o f them but recontly re­turned from foroign fields in China and Japan, two o f the vonerable bishopB o f the Methodist Episcopal Ohurch—Sim p­son and Harris, with several clerical m embers o f the Ocean Grove Camp- M eeting Association, were on the stand.

A t 1080 a . m. ol this day, our venerable and beloved senior Bishop SimpBon, who had retraced his steps all the way from Colorado to give the pres tige o f his presence at our sea-side cam p-m eeting, preached the opening serm on, from the text, “ A nd to know, the love b f Christ, which paaseth knowl­edge, that y e m ight be filled with all tbe fullness o f G od,” Bph. 3 :1 9 . I t was a serm on o f great sweetness and sweep o f spiritual power. Dr. Wtttmm followed in the a fternoon ; when amid the (lash­ings x>f divine truth; and the clash o f spiritual arm our, tbe warfare com ­m enced , and it seem ed as i f in the m idst o f the contest, hell yielded, and the powers o f darkness falling back, the hosts o f the redeemod rushed forward, and .ehoutlng victory, the victory waa gained. - . .

So, sermon after serm on cam e, day after day, until on W ednesday evening,

August 29th, they reaohed a matchless culmination, liko som e lofty peak, lost in a glow o f glory, where, .with our hearta burdened with blessedness, and our intellects wearied w ith tho vast and far-reachinn thoughts, we could go n o farther.

Sabbath, too, was peerless. The Love Feast in the m orning—-the sermon which followed at the Auditorium by Dr. Nawman— the services in the Tab­ernacle, Tem ple, H elping H and Tept, and at Reus’ and Lillagore’s pavilions, six in number, all held at the same time—all crowded—all spiritual, blessed,, heavenly— the Sabbath-sohool in the afternoon, with scores o f children seek-' ing religion— the sermon afterward— the imm ense Surf Meeting, com posed o f m any thousands— the meeting o f Mrs. Smith held in the Tabernacle at the sam o tim e— the serm on and ..vaet throngs at the Auditorium at night, al- gether, m ade it a day o f m ighty tidea and upheavals o f enthusiastic blessed­ness, surrounded with an atm osphere like heaven, and on and over all, rested a canopy o f glory like the effulgence which gathers around . the Eternal Throne.

Including all the meetings held that day in Ocean Grove, there were p ro b ­ably not loss than 20,000 persons who listened to the word o f God.

On Thursday m orning at nine o ’clock we assembled for the closing services. The occasion was solem n, yet joy fu lly triumphant. In so great an assemblage m any will never witness such a scene again. Before another cam p m eeting oloses, som e now present will be in the Eternal City. The exchange will be gldrlouB to them , yet the thought sub­dues our hearta, and dims our eyes with tears. There is a holy hush. Bosoms heave with intense em otion , A new life has been com m enced in many souls, These will receive the com m u­nion for the first time, while to others it will prove their last.

Besides all this, there are gathered all ages, conditions, and denom ina­tions. -There is no distinction o f age, sex or color. It is the L ord ’s table.

There will be nothing nearer heaven, until we pass the boundary line and en­ter in. This is the type of. that,

"Jesus said, 'Suffer the little children to com e unto m e.’ Then twenty little ones were dedicated to God in H oly Baptism, after which, one hundred m in­isters o f the Lord Jesus Christ distribut­ed the elements to nearly 1,600 com ­municants. A m ong the interesting .fea­tures o f these services is, that one table is filled with children, who have just found the Saviour. Bros. T hornley and Evans, who had labored with them, preceded by Prof. Sweney, singing—

. , 'Precious Jewels,’ ': •• ;■ .'..led them down the m iddle aisle to the altar, fifty or m ore, where they knelt in silence, and received the sacred em ­blems o f the Saviour’B death. A ll hearts were m oved, and tears filled m any eyes, while angels looked on with wondering joy , and Jesus said, “ O f such is the kingdom o f heaven.’ ”

The President then addressed the congregation in a few words, returning thanks to ministers, people, choir and everybody who had helped on the bless­ed work during the ten days past, ex ­horting all to increased activity and de­votion in the Mastor’s cause, and to.the m aintenance o f the rules and regula­tions o f (Kean Grove. Then ministers and people, m en, wom en and children m arched twioe around the Auditorium , singing trium phant Bongs o f joy , while the wondering multitudes looked on w ith subdued amazement, as to what these things should mean. .

Returning to the stand deep silence reigned. Then, with closed eyes, and hands and hearts uplifted, the Presi­dent said, “ In the nam e o f the Father, Son and H oly Ghost,’ ! the bell striking after each nam e. “ I pronounce the Ocean Grove oam p-m eeting for 1883 at an e n d ;’ ’ “ Arid m ay the peace o f God whioh passeth all understanding, keep your m indsand hearta in the knowledge and love o f God, throu gh ' JesuB ChriBt Our Lord.

Influence of Prayor.W hat m ighty works, are wrought

through prayer, no tongue can tell. H e who baa the ear o f kings m ay in an unseen m an ner. m anipulate human events; but who has the ear o f the K ing o f kings m ay sway eternal destinies.'1 H e who prays in the H oly Ghost is a worker together with G o d ; and he who can olaim the ear o f an eternal K ing , and pour in-petitions from a filial heart, m ay be m ore influential in the affairs o f men than m onarcbs and statesmen, than courtiers and intriguers.

1 The k ing ’s heart ia in the hand of the Lord.” M en who cannot be m oved by argument, or influenced by earthly considerations, yet yield- to Divine rule, and are aubjeot to the power o f H im who answers prayer.

It ib prayer in itself.that does all thiB. But it is the answor and the working o f H im who heareth prayer. And it is not faith in prayer, but prayer in faith, that brings the blessings which we seek. “ M ore things are wrought by prayer, than thia world knows o f.” Aa floods o f light, com ing from every distant orb, striking the earth at every conceivable angle, m ay change tbe t;ery conditions o f human life, though we m ay be as ig­norant as Jacob, “ by what way is the light parted, which acattereth the east wind upon the earth ; ” aa electric cur­rents m ay m ove, unseen and unfelt by ua, and yet affect our mental and physi­cal nature and destiny; \as O rion ' m ay bind us with its unseen bands, and the Pleiades m ay m ove u b unconsciously by their aweet influences; so, higher and mightier than ail these unseen, myateriouB powers, is tho power o f that' all-prevading Spirit, the presence o f H im above all and yet in you 'alt, and who is ever with those who "w o rs h ip the Father in spirit arid in truth.” And this Spirit not only begets within Our hearts the effectual, fervent prayers we offer, but by an alm ighty om nipresence controls, and rules, and guides, the thoughts o f m en as no earthly power can do. Let us learn then, that, how­ever weak and helpless we may be in the world’s estimation, w e . m ay yet be helpers towether by prayer. Bara tbat will not hear our. voices, :will hear the secret whispering o f the H oly Ghost hearta that will not respond to our en­treaties, m ay yet bend and m elt beneath the influences o f the eternal Spirit. And while prayer brings us nearer to the m ercy-seat, and maintains halltifred com m union between our own souls and God, it reaches ou t wide as the worid, and. from the dawn o f life tothe gates of death, brings blessings on the sons o f m en.— The Christian,

W hon the Lord dhose m en for Gid­eon's arm y, he judged then^by the way in 'w hich they performed so sim plo an s it as drinking from a spring. In onr Lord’s parable, it waa the man who had taken care o f on e pound faithfully, to Whom his master gave the rule o f ten cities. God is judging every one b f us just now by the m anner in which we do our Bimpleet tasks. A n d . his rule o f judging is o f universal application:

It is by the little word or deed o f lov­ing kindness and lovirig sym pathy that we m ake other heartB^lad, and that we win the love and gratitude o f others. And it ia by the little word o f thought­less or deliberate unkinduess o f severity that we give pain, and that we leave sad or bitter m em ories o f our unlovely course in the blinds o f those whose love and respect. we m ight have won and held. It Is often true that—

"A clouded face •*Strikes deeper than an angry blow.1’ .

I first touched ita soil on Sabbath m orning, at 12 o 'c lock , N ov. 4th, just seven days, twenty-one houraand a half from the dock in New Y ork . W onder­ful transition I W hat a space and time annihilator is s tea m ! C ork harbor ia very fine and Queenstown solid 1 Ita terraced hillsides w in d in g . roadways, cottages o f com fort, and Bplendid m an­sions overlooking the bay, are all m ag­nificent.

Iri the afternoon, having rejuvinated ourselves from our life o n the rolling deep, we went out passing up one o f the hether hedge and furze-lined roadways, we m et a lad o f ten, and two or three little girls. “ W ell sir,” addressing the lad, "are ypu going to8abbath-school ?” • " ’A m not a Protestant air,” waa the quick reply. “ W ell, suppose not, do not Catholics go to Sabbatlwschool ?” B ut they hurried on , and getting past had a good laugh at our expense. VVe cam o to an English Church. (P ro­testant Episcopal with us.) The build-' ing itself, and its HurroundingK were very beautiful. W e ontored, a bright afternoon, everything attractive, bu t tbe congregation did not num ber over fifty. T he clergyman, an exact counterpart o f our friend, H on . J. L. H ays, leas the vim, preached just, fifteen m inutes, and with a benediction aerit us hom e. But we were glad o f the opportunity to wor­ship God, and felt it was good to be there. In the ovening w o went to the Wesleyan Ohapel, anxious to hear a genuine Irish serm on, bu tou rfr ien d and Brother, Rev. J. E ; Irvine, an ovangel- ist, o f A m erica, who waa at Ocean Qrove last sum m er, hold ing a Beries o f meetings here,, preaohed, and we bad. a good meeting. This is a hard Boil for ProteatantiBm. A t night it waa a luxury to aleep without the sense o f being rocked in the cradle o f the deep.

M onday m orning, being attracted by the appearance o f the long, low, sharp and beautiful little steam ers • which glide fairily about the harbor, we em ­

barked for an hour's trip up tho beauti­ful river Lee. W o went to the bow o f the boat.of choice so we might have a good outlook. W hen the purser came ho charged us three pence.each . Bro. Thornley paid it. W hen we cam ebtick, still on the sam e boat, we passed to the stern so we might change our view: I gavo tho purser six pence, but He looked at me and aaid, “ two penco niorc, air.” H ow is that 1 naked, " why, you. are first-clasa, sir, aiid that is two pence 'more.” - Bow aecond-claas, stern- firsl- class. : W e laughed, righ t ou t in his face at such snobbish folly, but paid th e : extra change, and then put on our firat- class airs, bought for a penny ! In the afternoon, through a first-clasa Irish rain, we went to Cork by rail ; distance 10 or 12 miles, and found grand enter­tainment at tho Im perial H otel. At Wesley Chapel, where we worshiped at night, Rov. W . Guard, brother o f our . late and lamented Thos. Guard, iB pas­tor, hilt m uch to our regret was absent. Rev. M r. Lee, his colleague, greeted us kindly, and although my head was stil rocking with sea m otion, would have mo speak. After meeting, sitting in the drawing room o f our hotel w riting, while all without waa dark, g loom y and wet, and wc, with all, feeling a little lonely, a boy, an Irish boy at that, p&ised through the gloom on the other side--of the narrow street whistling “ Yankee Doodle.” It was like the electric touch from tbe soft hand of friendship, or the sudden revival o f au old and long lost tone, and laying down our pens, wo both burst into a jo y o u s laugh, exelaimiug God blejs tbo b oy that can whistle Yankee Doodle in the . land o f the Queen.

Did ,vou go to BUrnoy Caatle? Sure I W ho would go to cork and not go there?It ia only six milea, and the road, smooth as a floor, stone walled on the right, hedged on the left, with the river Lee at you r feet, and mansions belong­ing to lords and earls, at intervals-all the way, has the magnificence o f ro ­mance which I shall never forget. I never saw such roads as there are in Ireland I At the castle gate the lodge woman recognized our nationality at once, and said with a smile, “ It ia not visiting day, nir, but you arc always welcom e every day in the week, aud Sundays, too, God bless ye .” It was evident she lived in the neighborhood o f the far-famed Blarney stone. N ever­theless, it waa pleasant to be thus ad­dressed, and we thanked her from - ou r hearts. But, indeed, it waa not all blar­ney, for Sir George Colthurst Bart, M. P.,.'the proprietor, when in our couutry a few years ago, waa ao handsomely entertained, that ou hia return he gave orders that Americans should be at all times admitted to his . grounds, and while we were welcom ed with most cor­dial words, when we cam e out, a young Irish gentleman with throe ladies sought admission with great earnest, neaa, but in vain.

But I weary y o u ; and as Bro. Tborn- ley has described tbo castlo, a grand old ruin, full o f incident and interest, I sim ply say, I reverently kissed the stone as best I could, and close with tho quo- tationof another verso o f the im m ortal Bong, with ono verse o f which Bro. Thornley onriohed hia description of the placo: . : ' ; ■' '

W hoever Bought the light o f the rising sun by gazing into a dun geon? Look out upon the kindness and love o f God our Saviour. It is a discovery o f the person, olfices, beauty,' finished work, and freeness o f God our Saviour, that fills tho heart with peace and the mouth with praise.

Christian living and Christian charac­ter without Cliriat are impossibilities— with Christ they have been made a reality, before which the world haa ovor offered the hom age o f its admiration 4nd respoct.

Let the ground o f all religious action be obed ion co ; exam ino not why it is com m anded, but observe it bocause it is com m anded. Truo obedience noilher procrastinates nor questions.

W ith the tireless love snd unquench­able hope which only one in her . rela­tion can evince, his devoted mother was as a ministering angel at his side.

Thero are about five hours difference between Ireland and New Y ork time. Still, it was late to com m ence, for they have to light the gns, and whon sohool was out it was quite dark. I m ay say to you, what I would riot like to mention here, that I think neither school room s or schools are equal to ours at hom o.

A t tho Methodis Church ..in the m orning, a lady walked up the aisle, followed by eight or ten little girls. They were either h e r ' class or: from' ari' Orphanage, I waa riot sure which.

Curative Properties-of.'Purs Water.

M b) Edxtor ;—-\Vith all other -frionda of;06ean Qrove X share in the gratifi­cation felt n ttbs .nicro'e o f thelofig' arid persistent - effort Hiado .by.tbe Ah-hhm . tion to obtain an Hbniidatit supply o f pure water, I also share in the hope that the water*, may.P03S638- same curti.- tive proportioi that will be made a blcs- sirig.to ithousdnds' Qf our suireringl hu­manity.

It appears upon the best;authority that great benefits .are derived from a frep arid judicious uso o f water, when pbrfeotly puro, even when tho water is not known to possess any positive heal­ing virtues, its ch ief benefioiftl quality being ita purity. ,n p roo f o f thia, take the following, quoted from tho Boston Journal of ChemiMry, by tlie ChriMiun Ailuocatr, o f N ov, 22, 188S:

“ As regards the free use o f water under som e OJnditionS o f the digestive organs, i t ' may be said tliat '■ lio' agent can prove safer or m ore salutary. Those who -have ..morbid, con ditions ' o f the stomach and bowels, which do not eo far impair the general vigor fei pre­vent atterition being given to the ordi­nary duties o f life, pan often use large draughts o f water, eapeeially in'; the m orning, with'manifest advantage, Qb- ettnate constipation ia thereby removed, tho normal poristaltic m otions o f the fcowsis are restoreii, an>! the seerotions m ay be: yastly im proved. W e notice the'salutary influence o f water-drinking upon many o f those who resort to tho so-called mineral springs which abound iri the country. It is not necessary, that these springs should hold abnormal quantities o f salt o f any kindr to' effect oiires; it is only necessary that the water should be pure. Spring - waters that are charged heiivtiy with saline iri- gredient8,|like some, o f those at Saratoga, lire .positively, injuriditB to nearly or quite all that use them frOely. '• Perhaps the most pojiular water now in usein the United States is that known as the Poland Spring Water, which is found in Maine near Portland. This water is distinguished only for its purity. It hOlds a leas am ount o f “ salts” than tho ordinary pond and rivor waters o f New England. W e ascertained by analysis o f tbo water, when tlie Poland Springs w sir first 1 discovered,’ that it held less than three grains o f organic and inorganic nnvtter ' " ‘.ho imperial gallon, and ite character has undergone no change since it becamo noted.”

By analysis, “ the most popular wafer now in use in the United States,” contains lens, than three grains, o f or­ganic, and inorganic matter.- to the gal Ion. B y analysis, the water from the Artesian well at Ocean Grove, contains rid organic matter whatever, and only 8 19100 grains of. mineral' matter per gallon o f 58-318 grains. M ay we not coafidentally axpeet that this syoiiderful flow o f pure water from tlie, doptba of. tho earth will prove a benefit to tlioo- sands who may com e tc the Grovo seok- ing both spiritual and physical healing and recuperation.

The author above quoted, a ays : “ The wator in itself contains no medi cinal properties w hatever; and t'no aame results would he obtained by inva­lids i f the. Vfaters whioh are distributed in our cities were used under the game conditions, and with flie exerciae o f ths same- faith, as a t ; the, Mait.e spring,” And yet the alleged cures are not unreal tier illusory, but are wrough't. by the free use1 o f wator, which is exceedingly pure. I f tlie same means will produce, like results, we see no reason why tho water at Ocean Grovo m ay not becom e equally celebrated.

It would indeed lie wonderful if in connection with the spiritual or religi­ous work o f Ocean Grove there should grow iip ,a vaat agency for the. allevi- atioii o f tho. physical ills that.aliliet mankind. But this is a work that pe­culiarly belongs io the Church, A care­ful : reading o f the B ible will show bow closely, the work o f the prom ised Mes­siah, tho man , Christ Jesua; was con ­nected with the siiloviation o f bodily misery, as well as bringing Biilvation to tbe lost,

“ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching ]n thoir synagogues and preaching the Gospel o f the kingdom, and healing all m anner oi .»iokaesa arid ai! m anner o f disease among the pes;- pie.” '.T eaching, preaching,1 healing. The full measure o f tho Gospel’s work for man ia : not done when the mind is instructed and the heart ■regenerated. It1 does rioti expend ita full foi-ce in preaching and touching, . Aa ail-suffer­in g . is -ha .outgrowth;of- sin, ao iovu, which lies at the base o f redemptiosi, will suggest healing: agencies for the body as woll as salvation for tiio b o u I. W o have a niost 'arnost wish that Oceau Grove m ay becom e the source o f healing aa woll as o f spiritual com fort to tens o f thousands o f tho unfortunate am ong mankind,

Although the sky, was 'overclouded, and the prevailing northeast wind wists- keen and strong, the usual coiigregutioii gatlieied within the walls o f St. Paul's Churoh o:i ln->f Sabbafb morning. -Tho pastor.iii stead of.pi-'eachiiig ironi ii text, Stated that it w asiim e to read the Gen ­eral R u le i as contained in the Book o f Dlaciplirie. Preliminary thereto,; he remarked that a num ber, o f answers hud been given to the qitejtioii, “ W hat is Christianity?” To him it meant spiritual life' in individual men. 1 Christ instituted a 'ch u rch because'to preach tlio Gospel effectively iuvolved organi- z5tion,'whic(> - was a means' toward an end, that eiid being apiritual life and salvation; This church o f 'desiis Christ is'ah.ali. em bracing one, flexible in its governm ent and adapted to the various wants o f its m embers. In the days, o f the apostles the o h u rch . adopted the form Of the synagogue, transforming the Jewish churoh and form ulas into the Christian church. After closing the New Testament canon and the death o f tbe apostles, sym pathy with the na- tional religion was gradually lost, and the form alism, ceremoniea and pompoa- itiea o f I’agauisin -were aubstituted; Perriieipua doctriries crept in and the church waa corrupted, Sho had a treas­ury o f indulgences and morality was at a discount:

In the 10th century the Reformation under Luther took place. It waa a great event but it did not accomplieh enough if it was to produce spiritual Uvea. Luther severely denounced Popery and the' error ofsiiperrogation he declared.that men could riot pur­chase im m unity from sin. So the basis o f the Reformation was tlie- revival o f Orthodoxy. 'Faith was the underlying doctrine; good work's were underrated, Men were to believe that they were ju s­tified by faith, and good deeds were accounted valueless, us the evidences o f Spiritu il life.': . . - . ’ -: The D octor said there were, four great aye toms-of thought prevalent, 'lit .' Ror mnnisni, whereby men ivero to he saved by connection with' the tihurcii,: and that church must have its hieraohy, its forma and cerem onies, its pom p and power, and is really Paganism ongralied. on Christianity.

2d. Calvunimn, which teaches that men are olecte l to bo saved. Salvation ia not by faith, but by the will o f God, who has loreorduinod aome to perdition and others to everlasting life. It is of the Old Testam ent type. God is a sov­ereign! the ohurch <\ theocracy.

,'iil, Lutheran. Faith in God is taught but,salvation ia through the church. Certain forms and rites must he observ­ed before men can be justified by faith.

4th. Methodism, which stands on a broader basis. Mon are saved by iic- rapting now the terms o f salvation free­ly offered, which we are froo to accept or reject. Methodism teaches perfect tion in love— Unit there ia.a growth in grace until G od ’a imago ia atamped On the human heart. The theology o f Methodism ie not dogmatic. Really it has n on e ; there is no dogm a belonging to tho cliurch universal that it has not revived. Its articles o f religion are de­claratory but riot imposed on the con ­science; I t demands that the. Inward life shall be right rather than question the views then hold. Now-a-daya we arc not a s ', Catholic as Wesley was. Methodism was-a revival o f spirituality. Faith is a divine conviction wrought in the aoul by God. It enforces good works and instead o f giving us d o c - -t-rines. supplies us with a Book o f D isci­pline, for the governm ent Of our ac­tions toward. God.and niari. A s n gen­eral in the army once aaid o f it, Meth- odiam ia com m on sense Christianity.

T he D octor then read the Rules froni the Disciplirie, com m enting' on the .ex­cellency and practical.valne.of each,and hoped God would help all to keep them.

Ths Loading Papsr.An ndvortisement o f The New York

Tribune appears in anothor colum o. The Tribune is the leading Republican journal o fth e United States, and road- era o f both parties will find it a: good an exponent o f Republican op in ion as they can take during the Presidential year. The Tribune ie a good newspaper, and ita W eekly and Semi-woekly Edi­tions are especially adapted for reading in regions where farming is tho predo nimant interest. T be Agricultural De­partment, the H om e Interests, tho Book Reviews, the Political news, the foreign letters o f The Tribune are all famous. Sir. Greeley was personally fond o f farming, and he made The Tribune the Rreate3t farmers’ paper in the country. If, however, the papor in different nt all from what it was ten years ago, it is, if possible, a better paper. Its old fea­tures are retained ; and there are many new oncB. Still others are promised tbe com ing winter. See prospectus in an­other column The Tribune retains tho plan o f offering a fow bookB o f the high­est cloa8 as premiums for clubs o f sub­scribers. W e notice that this yoar, thoro are offered tbe largest and beat Atlas o f tho W orld, a book for m usi­cians, R idpath’s entertaining History o f the United States, the two great Una­bridged Dictionaries o f W obster and Worcester, and that valuable illustratr ed family work, W ood ’s H ousehold Practice o f M edicine.

The Tribune has a plan for starting town Libraries and Reading Room s, which is worthy b f attention. Tho pa­per now appears in now type which is •cry. satisfying to the eye. In its large print, the old Tribune excels the major- o f newspapers,

^ i ^ - "The Decem ber number o f tbe Am eri-

ican Agriculturist contains ubouf one hundred engravings, which ia twenty- five per cent. m ore than that in any other illustrated periodical in this or any other country. These illustrations are engraved expressly for the paper by leading artists, covering a wide va­riety ol rural subjects as well as farm in­ventions and contrivances. These en­gravings alone in anyisinglo issue o fth e paper are worth far more to every farm­er and housekeeper than the subscrip­tion price for five years. Kotwithstand-

! ing the American Agriculturist ia fully worth four dollars a year, the subscrip­tion price will continue at $1.50 during 1884,.

“ Before tho M ast; or, Facts and Fan­cies o f a Three Years* Cruise in an Am erican Man of-W ar on the W est Coast o f Africa and in the Mediter- ranean Sea,” is the title o f the lecture to be delivered by Hon.
