The'fiery1 Baptism,BY REV, W./S. BAKNAHT.

I once went into a palace of Imagery* had there, a peculiar vision,. aud learned an Impressive lesson. I will take the reader . Into my confidence and make known; tp him this, strange experience. F irst, le t u s have the .vision., A-.woman seeks a supernatural endowment of beauty, po(wer and immortality., Sher goes- from the habitation^ of men, enteps a.lPpely and desolate country, goes from the ligh t of dpy; ipto the dark k recesses of a gloomy cayerh, crosses yawnlng and horrifyipg aby $s es, r gro p e s .lip r way by t^e faintest,; flickering light.' through dark,and di^mkl passages, and descends b^ ^ai^ful jirp ' cesses to profoundest dpptha.' At; last coming to . a spacious subterranean h a ll she Is in the presence of a mysterious, in. tense, circling fire. !A spirit .voice breathes forth thrilling , words of counsel .demand­ing: utm ost courage, and she throws' off every garment, and plunges in^o tlie fiery pool. The m^sterlpus; .flames. wrap them- selves about her and t^repten to devour. But wait! She only loses the, grosser ele­ments • o f her being; Every elem ent o f ugliness' disappear^. Shp becomes stirr passingly beautiful, ’ and Is possessed of wondrous power’ in her own1 person and o ver'the destinies of those with whom alio comes in contact. And. she has become Immortal; Ages may pass and instead of her beauty fading it Is enhanced. Forever young, forever' lovely, forever ’ powerful So much for the vision;

My Imagination was filled with the pic­ture.: , I admired, lovedi craved the wo­man’s beauty; I J was. awed by and coveted her power, and* I greatly desired-the con­stitution of bo_dy against which time could rqak^.no ravages. 0, the oharm of, being always, young, and beautiful, and potent in-influence, and immortal V

In the midst of this wild dream o f the imagination It occurred to me that the strangest pictures o f the fancy.vare often only prophecies of the good, things in r,e- Borye. for man, and that even this dream

.m ight be a shadow of the truth. L et me, thpn, discover it. ;

God Is “ a consuming fire.** Ho was “ the pillar of Are” that led the Israelites. He was the fire in the burning bush* H e was the vivid flame on the mercyr8eat.- He camp on.the disciples, at Pentecost as the flames of fire on tho head and in thehearti Bo .there is a fiery baptism for man.and he

-mayjbatbe in it.The woman in my vision sought the

fiery, baptism that was to do so much for, hor ip the secret place In the eartjt, down In .tl^e hidden, caverns ofj the. mountain. She crossed yawning abysses; she passed- through darkness; she defied dangers; she put aside earthly garments; she plunged in to , and /wrapped Uerself in the spectral flames. W here are we-to get our-fiery baptism ? Lot us find our cavern—away from men. “And; thou, wfhon thou pray- est,;enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut • the door, prat/f—prny to thy Father” Before wp, fl^d the^true secret place where the circling fire manifests its its wondrous power-we may be called to cross yawning gu lps; to-face terrible dark­ness,* to defy.appaljing dpnger; to.disrobp frpm?ear thiy, and: prized Babylonish gar­ments; but we need not hesitate. A holy daring—a thorough, d isregard 'o f comfort —a complete Ignoring of all loss Is appro­priate! jn a;caso.-like this. At. whatever cost let us find the secret place of the AU m lgh tyand wait and ,pray , and pray and waltifor.the coming fire.. Let our naked souls be wrapped; and bathed, and refined, and changed.. O for the baptism of: fire 1

The results1 were wonderful in my vis-- ion; G ross; elements wpre consumed— ugliness-vanished—beauty sat upon her brow and molded her entire person. Power and Influence came to her; time hud no power over.her; old age and decay were never to bo experienced. O wondrous fire! flow wo need thee! O Divine Saviour,,send the Holy Ghost and fire on thy needy people I n o w the gross ele­ments of unsaved human nature need the devouring fire. ‘W hat ugliness of charac­

ter needs thy consuming power? W hat ( of the organist? I f such a display* be wor-shi p, where does the “spiritual”/part come in ? ' “ My heart Is fixed! 0 God; my heart Is fixed: I1 w ill sing and give praise.” 1 .; Again, w hat part does the congregation have in such muslcal'performances? They sit as mute listeners; Just as they; would a t some fashionable concert o r opera. T heir after com m ent is about the charming music. B ut still it is w r i t t e n L e t all the people praise thee, O God, let all the people praise thee.”: . •1

Du ring prayer, no one stood up, not one knelt ;’ but all sat, a goodly number, bow­ing their [heads. Ono of tho hymns, how­ever, was beautiful, and touched my heart with tho spirit of lovo and praise. I t was the following:

di vine beauty, awaits, tiiy, creation I W hat immpjtoJity. will; bo oonferred by the bap­tism !■ What- untold' influence and- power comes alone w ith thyself swaying the m ultitudes to Christ and* Into the kingdom o f God

The fipry. baptism ! Peter in, i t lost his cowardice and. profanity, v Jam es and John their earthly am bition; Thomas all his propensities to doubt; Bunyan h is fearful profanity ;- W esley his legalism ; and' all ‘the fire-baptised saints of- God the dross of indwelling sin and the am azlng'depths of corruption.

The» fiery; baptism ! W hat grand- gifts It has conferred. Stephen won his angelic face, an d , convincing ansi* burning elo­quence. Madam Guion obtained that charm of character that everywhere drew, the multltucip3 to her side to hear her thrilling accents of the Gospel; “.Isaiah's vivid page ” and “ David’s hallowed lays ” glow-with the imparted gifts j and Bishop Taylor; of tho Durk Continent, and H arri­son, who in middle llfe: has not ceased to bo M the boy evangelist,” - and Moody, the hard-headed,) common sense reacher of the masses, with scores of others of whom the world la not worthy have wondrous experiences to tell of tho flory baptism

And what about- the im m ortality con­ferred by the baptism of fire? Is i t not true th a t thoy w,ho obtain It never die? Aro not E lijah, and Isaiah, and Petpr, and James, and. John, and Cornelius immortal? Does not their beauty glow and dazzle more to-day .than eighteen centuries ago? Is not the. sound of their , words more potent than when they lived among men? Has not the ir life broadened ou t and made itself felt in the, vast multitudes o f living' men to-day And though buried like Mpses, or translated like Enoch,and E lijah Is i t not true ;thatt they ' are living, and young, and, powerful, and immortal, /shin­ing as the,stars and as tho brightness, of the firmament, forever,.

• Kow.Papartores,BY HEV.'CHARLES COLLINS, D. D,

The present is an ageof Innovations and; changes.. T he primitive worship; of the fathers has become threadbare: and obsor le te ;; A pulling ;doWn’of the old,8pirltuaI; superstructure Is the order- of the day. Their principles were the golden truths of the gospel o f Jesus,C hrist; Their, life and, hope were bu ilt: Upon the - precious doc* trines o f grace. Everyth ing1 nown indb cate3 the changed.conditlon Of things;. The forces round about are 4 actively a t work*, w ith‘ham m er and- axe, to pull down and destroy. The doors are ajar* and-the win. dows w ide , open,:to let In the spirit, of worldliness into ■ the church. Pride; fash* ion and wealth’ largely control.the order o f worship. Hence, tho form er method of. engaging sim ply In the public worshipiof God; by the use of prayers, praises, preach- I n l and. rea l exposition of the. Scriptures, hasj been measurably abandoned, a t least In some Of our large 'cities. ,

Most:of the churches are not h a lf filled? therefore, we read of ‘f new departures,” to draw the people. So: there are many a t tractions advertised, extravagance in the display o f costly boquets and lo w ers , ex­pensive classical music, rendered to tickle the ear, together with oratorical, display,1 commingled with sharp sayings, w it and mere sentiment, in the pulpit.' Y et it Is, nevertheless, a - most- serious' question;— does all this constitute true worship ? For It la: written : “ God is a spirit, aiid^ they that worship him m ust worship him in spirit-and in truth,” • '-I

Let me illustrate. Recently I went to worship in a very fashionable church on the Lord’s day morning. The pews, a s In* formatlotf is given, represent millions of money. The conservatory had profusely supplied the pulpit platform with beauti­ful ferns, exotics ami fragrant flowers. The organ voluntary, or musical, diver- tisen^ent, occupied. some ten minutes of valuable time,. Then followed a very, brief invocation. A musical sentence came from ,the quartette choir. Beading o f a Psalm, Singing of a hy mn. A desul­tory prayer, w ithou t. apparent unction 6r. much supplication. Music by the soprano; a long-extended solo. A. series of adver­tisements, in the 'way o f nbtIce3, consum­ing some ton minutes. T he sermon, or moral essay, occupying about twenty-elght minutes. Following, came another, solo and quartette chorus.

Cun the congregation pralso God, w hile four voices render a sort of disconnected musical jargon, with words chiefly unin­telligible? Is that tho truo -w orship of God, for ono, four, or oven six persons to be absorbed with eyes, ears, brain, watch­ing the .tim e, movement and changes of some complicated musical composition, together with tho artistic accompaniment

“ Jesu?. tby name I love,All other names above.

Jo3ua my Lord 1 ,Ob, thou art all to me I Nothing to pipase I see,—Nothing opart from thee,

Jesus, my Lord I" Tbou: blessed Son of God I . Hast bought mo with tby blood,

I shall bo happy then,Josus; my Lord I ».

Thon, thlno own faco I’ll eco, Then, I shall ltko theo bo,Their, ovormoro.wlth theo,

Jesus, my Lord I"

W ill the reader be surprised that the minister took the. liberty of mangling the aliove.sweet, Christian love, song, by an­nouncing tha t the closing verse, would be omitted ?, This la w hat was done, And yet i t w ill be observed, that the pith, the heart worship, and. the-soul-inspiring pul satlons of the entire hymn, were to be found, in the- last stanza. Was the omis*1 sion-accidental o r intentional? T he sing­ing-of that Terse would not have consumed one. h a lf m inute of time; I t ' refers to Christ’s coming, again.

A v e ry general* complaint, coming from many. of. our evangelical churches, Is, that the people do not attend public Worship, And then the ' question,, how, to. draw the masses- Certainly the frequent “ new de partures ” do not effect, it. Much less do the fashionable churches draw in the hum ble and Jow ly ones. ,

Becehtlyi I heard of a m inister who tried .this > “ new depaTture.’1, A. secular, orchestra, consisting; of Addles, : flutes, horns, cornet, trombone, violoncello, etc., occupied th e platform, near the pulpit. Again, picture scenes were spread out on canvas, each Sunday evening, to attract the multitude. Again, the m inister announced, (perhaps to sliow' his wisdom) tha t those present in the congregation m ight propose curious questions, mostly of a scriptural character, which he would publicly an­swer, with comment.

Now all this was done; but th e “ new departu re” failed. The crowd did not come. The congregation appeared to fall off. Was i t an evidence that they needed the plain; pure statements and exposition of gospel truth ? Might it not be well to subside on the “ new departures ?“ Would not m inisters of the jgospel be tte r call “ a h a l t” on the^e new innovations? Would i t not bo wiser to let the flowers, the msthetic music, the fashion and the finery all go, and depend upon the divine Father to draw men unto Chris# just as Christ h im self did ? Assuredlyj his was a blessed r - a superior example, Would7 it* not bB better to abandon these worthless human expedients, and follow in the old paths? In the Word we are taught plainly; that “ no m an c a n . come except the F ather draw him ,” .;v-;.; ... •• -A'

Ah! interrupts the worldly wise man, but now we are living In a different age. T rue; but the human heart and the tend­ency to love sin, are ever the same.

The man; whom God chose; and “ who was 163S than the least o f all saints,?’ went forth suwessfull, to Inaugurate the conver­sion of tho Gentile world to Christianity. But how went he forth ? W earing, the shield o f faith, with untiring earnestness he preached the. sim ple gospel ; holding up Christ, and wherever he w ent the pow­er of the H oly Spirit accompanied and sealed the; word. Paul went; forth, not with music, hor flowers, nor money, nOr heralded; by popular influence, nor the dictation of church officials, nor . ini any de- pondenco upon more human appliances; but raising h is voice vehemently, he cried out in all places,--*' Christ tho power of God, and the wisdom of God. H ear lilui again: “ For I- determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” ■

Would It not he well, in view* of in- creasing worUUlnoss, for ministers and churches of nil evangelical denominations

,to bow humbly and listen reverently to Jesus himself, s p e a k i n g ^ Aud I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.”—MmialCs Herald. •

Tha Transforming-Fire.

. Christ an Example.No man’s example will precisely fit h is

fellow-mau; but there Is this strange vir­tue about the character of Christ, that you may all Imitate it, and yet be none of you mere imitators; H e Is perfectly natural' who Is perfectly like Christ. There need be no affectation, no painful restraint, no straining. In a life thns fashioned; there will be nothing grotesque or dispropbr- tionate, unmanly or romantic. So wonder­fully is Jesus the second Adam o f tiie new­born race th a t each-member, o f that fam­ily may bear a likeness to H im , and yet exhib it a clear individuality. A man ad-, vanced In years and wisdom may p iit H im on; and so may the - least instructed, and tne freshest com er. among us. . Please re ­m ember , th is : we may not. choose exam-, pies,, but, each one Is bound to copy the Lord- Jesus . Christ. . Y ou, dear 'friend; have a special personality;. you are such a person that there is .not another exactly like you, and you, are placed In circum* stances so. peculiar that no one else Is, tried exactly, as you are ; to ■ you ,: then, is this exhortation sen t:;1'P u t on the Lord Jesus-C hrist,” I t is absolutely certain that for, you, with your personal singular­ity and peculiar, circumstances, there can be nothing better than that you array your­self . in th is * more than: royal robe< You, too, who live In ordinary circumstances, and are oniy tried by common temptations, you are to “ pu t on the Lord Jesus Christ;” for He. w ill be suitable; for you also.“ Oh,’* cries one, “ but the Lord Jesus never was exactly where I am !” You say this from want o f knowing' better, or from w ant o f thought. .He; has been tempted in all points lik e as^you are. There are certain relationships which the Lord Jesus ..could not literally occupy; hut then He took their sp iritual counterpart'. For instance, Jesus could not be a husband after the flesh. Does anyone demand how Ho could bo an example for husbands? HoarkenJ “ Husbands, love your wives, even as; Christ also loved the Church and gave IJ im self fo r it. : H e is your 'model In a relatlonship which, naturally; He, never sustained, hut which, in very deed, He h a s : more than fulfilled. W herever you may bo, you find that the Lord Jesus' has occupied the counterpart of your posi­tion, or* else- tho position is sinful, dud ought to be quitted, In any placo, a t any hour, undor any circumstances, in Hny matter, you may put on tho Lord Jesus Christ, and never fear that your array w ill: be unsuitable. Here, you liavo a sum m er and \vintor garment—good In prosperity as well as iu adversity, Horo you havo a

Again let,us draw near to the scene of Carmel. On the one side are gathered ttifc priests of Baal, spent and despairing behind them the hosts of Israel hushed and wondering., On. the other side there is the stern, prophet. Tho ruddy glow of sunset la: flooding soa and earth> and sky ; the long, shadows fall on the hillside as the prophet lifts up his arm appealingly to heaven, and on the still a ir there rings hia prayer: “ Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known, this day th a t thou art God in.Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. H ear me, 0 Lord, hear me, that this.people may know that thou a rt the. Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart,back again. Then the fire of the Lord fell* and consumed the bUrntsacrlfice,.and the wood, and the stones, and the, dust, and licked up the Wa­ter that .was in the trench. And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and. they said, The Lord,, he is the God the Lord, he is the God.”

This and this only is in all ages the proof of the religion of God—the fire from heaven. Look at the- sacrifice stretched on the altar. I t is dead and be yond all power of life—a th ing blood­stained am lrepulsive. W hat can you do with i t ? Bring your robed priests w ith chanted hymns and m ystic sign,' and, what BhalVthat avail? Bring the orator,-and le t him declaim about i t ; what difference shall th a t make ? Bring your arguments and strong reasons, collect'the opinions of the greatest intellects of the ages; shall that check for a moment th e corruption to which it is hastening? Bring your groups in agony, of earnestness, frenzied arid leap I ng, yet It is all - u nchanged. But there pomes the fire • then all ia trans; formed. As if a' th ing o f life It. goes leaping heavenward;; Purged ahd purified; now is it upborne as on wings. N o longer, hushed In death, it sings with a hundred tongues of flame. Helpless no more, now is It, inspired with a force that Is resistless, and' ihe- stones melt, and: th e .wate^ that would quehch.it is “ licked up.” ' There Is no withstanding a proof like thatr-the force that transforms from death to life, the power that unlooses the hold o f eartli .and bears the earthy heavenward—men everywhere believe in that religion,-and it is the. only religion that men do believe in. F ind ’a force that can; make bad .men good' and drunken men sober nnd greedy men generous—that brings Into the vain and frivolous a sense of life's tremendous im­port ; a power that makes the proud broth­erly and teaches eyeb tiie grum bler to; sing—you may be sure, that such a re li­gion will do its own arguing and will cary Its own conviction everywhere. Mr. Wesley tells us that at Epw’orth on one oc­casion a wagon-load o f M ethodists were brought before the magistrate. “ W hat have they done ?” asked. the magistrate. That was a point which the prosecution, had not considered. Then said- one,“ Please,' sir, they converted my wife. Before she went among them she had such:a tongue! . B ut now she Is as quiet as a lamb.” '“ Take them back,” said the magistrate, “ take thorn back, and let them convert all the .scolds of the parish.” Form s of worship, arguments on the evi­dences-of religion, oratorical disquisi­tions—what are they beside a woman whose ilj temper has been cured?

Look at the s/icrlfice and see when the fire comes the completion of the work. There is not. just a .b it.touched here and there, so th a t w ith many i t should bo a doubtful m atter if the fire had fallen at all. There was not oniy a fancied smell of something burning, and the singeing of n'hair. I t fell.;upon the sacrifice, and it consumed the dust and the stones, andi It licked: up the water • o f the trench. W e must have the fire that not only lays hold of the man, but of all about h im ; the transform ing fire th a t not only goes to the innerm ost. heart of th e ' mun, -but that reaches tho .outermost doings .and . rela­tions of his life. The roligion that fa ils’

,to transform the whole life is sure to bo suspected, perhaps even scorned. W hat­ever theories the churches may hold, tho world lias for tho Christian hu t one stand-

trips and stumbles over the defects of Christian people, and makes no allowance for them. The world’s conviction and the world’s conversion depend upon the holy lives o f religious people. And here the world ia one with the word of. God; “ Thus saith the Lord, then shall the heathen that are left round about you : know that I am the Lord when I'am sanc­tified in you before their eyes.” W e wafat the fire that comes upon the man to reach to the stones and dust o f his house, and to the stones and dust of his workshop, Tho fire m ust; purify all his dealings. And not a consuming only is it—we w ant a fire that will be available for a shivering world, to warm- and blesd and^gladden- It. The Church-needs above everything elfee and tho world demands; this completeness and thoroughness—that allke^ In business and in home, in master- and in workman, in mistress and'maid, in pleasure and pol­itics—all shull be truo and honest and faithful.—From Elijah, the Man o f God> by Mark Guy Pearse.

Gifts for Invalids,A vory sm all thing of beauty th a t will

be a pleasant sight for on Invalid's eyes while it lasts is, a carrot' or sw eet potato . hollowed out on the inside to leave a wall about three-quarters of an inch thick. The vegetable is suspended by cords1 passed through holes pierced in the sides, a u d 'th e '' cavity filled with water. In a few days upturning- sprays of green will sprout from the bottom and cover tho outside, and if a small bunch* o f violets is p u tin the little quaint hanging-bosket, It will have* a charm ing appearance.-

A1 pretty little th ing to leave on a sick friend’s table is a plant saucer, with three pine cones standlng.upright’In the centre* T he’arrangement of sticks or hair-pins, by which* you'com pel' them to assum e'and; maintain an erect position, may be-oon* • cealed by a mat of roal moss. T here . should also be a layer of sand In tho bot- tom of tho dish. Grain o r grass seed should be scattered over the cones, and I f the saucer is kept full of water the seeds, will sprout and show a beautiful tender green, in1 fine contrast to the ricb hrown o f the cones.

I t is such a pleasure to watch green things growing that either of these sim ple gifts Is an aid to pass the w eary.hours. Even a.finger-bowl with a thin layer, of cotton sprinkled with flaxseed, which grows and lives fo ra while on such nour­ishm ent as it drains from the water be­neath, is a cheerful, pretty decoration for a sick ronin. . . .

For a friend who is too feeble to sit a t desk or table to write, It would be a pleas­ant task to fit up a w riting tablet which can ha used when oue Is In-a reclining po-: sition, and which offers facilities for sterl­ing writing implements, note3 nnd the other etceteras th a t an invalid dislikes to- bo always asking other people to procure for her use.

The foundation is a seasoned pine board twenty-flve inches long by twenty-ono' broad. This is covered with felt, which upon throe sides hangs over the.edge, and Is supplied with flat pockets to hold le t­ters. The front of each pocket i s cu t into • a point,1 which buttons down to protect the contents. Across each end o f tho b o a rd 1 are straps and little superim posed flat • pockets tp hold pens, pencils, stamps, cards and envelopes. Of course these conr' voniences must not invado tho space need­ed for writing. A leather.covered travel­e r’s inkstand, with a strong spring in th o . cover to prevent the spilling of ink, can be firmly glued on one upper corner, and a pen tray aud stamp box on the othor cor­ner. A row of brass-headed nails should bo put all around the edge of the board, and tho straps and pocketscanbe fastened- on with sm aller brass nails. The valances with tho buttoued;down pockets, can bo folded over the top when the w riting board ‘ is not in uso.—Harper's Jiawr-.

Allllctlon Is not always of tho nature o f ' chastisement. It is sometimes for trial; and to givo a m anifestation o f tho power of- faith is to endure w ith patience tho

ard, and that is entire sanctification. I t burden which is laid upon us.

Mr. Yatman, leader of tho Young Peo- pi o'8 meetings, desires very much to get a half dozen copies of the little book he used In tho Temple meetings a few years ago,

’ entitled “ The Names and Titles of Christ.’ He will pay for. thom if mailed to him at 1017 N. Eighteenth Street, Philadelphia; He would also like to get the same hum ber of “ The Fifteen Great Chapters,” used in the Twilight meetings of 1889.

Thero were few dry eyes when the choir of St. Paul’s last Sunday evening finished their anthem, “ That Beautiful Golden Gate.” Mr. and. Mrs. George M. Bennett, in a duet full of pathos, rendered theso words of warning:

" Don't let It bo said; too late, too late, to enter that beautltul gate;He ready, for boou the time will come,To enter that golden gate."

Several were happily saved and are now .la turn warning their friends to make sure of an entrance within that “ Golden Gate.”

A protracted meeting lias been held for nearly seven weeks in the M. E. Church of EnglisbtoWn, conducted by tho acting pastor, Dr. William I. Gill. The services: have been attended by large congregations all through. Sixty-one persons have bowed at the altar, exclusive of church members,'and over forty havo been already received as probationary members. The pastor was effectively aided two nights by Rev. Dr. Moore, presiding elder of tho district, and two other nights by Rov. Mr. Waples, of .Tamesburg.

The presence of no less £han three.bish­ops at tho Philadelphia Methodist 1’raich*

. ers* .Meeting last Monday morniug, in­fused- somo extra enthusiasm into that lively assembly. Bishop Walden was on his way to New York to sail for Europe. Bishop Joyce was on his way from Wood­bury where, lie told tlie brethren he had dedicated on of the finest churches for Dr. Lipplncott that lie lmd ever seen, and Bishop.Foas gave an account of |ils recent Episcopal tour in Texas. In addition, Dr. Baldwin, of New York, read an excellent paper on the womtn question, in which he locks horns with Dr. Buckley, editor of tho Chriislian Advocate, and makes a good fight for the right. ’ *

i A touching incident is told of the sagac­ity of “ Dexter,” ' tho pony belonging to Mr. George W. Evans, who had become accustomed to .being brought out nnd hitched to the post at his front door. Be­fore going out for a drive Mrs. Evans would frequently give him a piece of sugar or candy. This ho always looked for, A few days ago he got loose from his 'sta­ble and came to tho hitching poststanding

• there waiting for his usual sweetmeat from tho hands of the ono he had so often served In trotting around our avenues. The pony then entered the open gate and walked round the house ou which' the shadow of death has so recently fallen.

Students of history,.and especially of European history *in the. nineteenth cen­tury, aro tp be congratulated upon tho re­cent appearance ‘ of- so many Important

; works relating to tho men and events of our own times. As a critical and Impar­tial review of English,politics, society and literature during the past quarter of a cen­tury, Sinai ley *8 Letters from Tendon and Some ■ Others, published by Harper &' Brother, may .well bo regarded as unsur­

passed. They are, Indeed, as tho London . Spectator declares, “ history in the true

souse.” • narper & Brothers have jdso in course of publication an important series of works—biographical nnd hlstorlcal—on Queeu Victoria’s Prime Ministers. Two volumes of this series—Lord Beaconbfidd nnd J<ord .ilfdbourne—hnvQ nlrendy ap­peared. That on Sir Jiobert Peel is nearly roady for publication.

John Wosley,Wo aro brought to tho eve of that mem­

orable date, March 2, 1891, which will be exactly one hundred years since the grand- est life of the last century went out peace­fully in the sleep, of death. The occasion is one which will not be allowed to pass without due commemoration. Throughout the British Isles great preparation has been mado for its duo observance, and the at­tention of Methodist people in this toun- try,'Canada,-and. indeed every land and nation on the face of the globe, where the founder of ttie greatest religious move­ment the . world has ever-seen since Apos* tollc days, Is read, remembered and re­nowned, has been duly called to the pro­priety of some suitable observance, in­cluding a retrospective .view, of tho re­formation, or revival, brought about in .his, life-time, and the marvellous work.accom­plished since dying, his prophetic eye, taking in the advancing forces .of evan­gelistic truth, saw the world belted with a zonO of agencies for liumnu Balvation, and his dying lips exclaimed, “ The best of all is, God Is with us.”

In many pulpits, as well as the denom­ination more tfirectiy interested,will ingen­uous eulogies pronounced on next Sabbath of the man and his system who. was.so far ahead of his time. . ’ V ,

It takes just about one hundred years to form a fair estimate of his moral heroism, his catholicity of soul, his great learning, his burning zeal. In the British Empire^ most of all, from the highest churchman to the humblest dissenter, .Wesley’s true character has come to be understood .and his work appreciated. The reproach he dared and the scorn he endured .have melted away. Wesleyan doctrine, Wesley’s hymns, and the church government he in­stituted have attained a. world-wide recog­nition and imitation. ’ '

Among the people called Methodists this might seem an appropriate time to get back to first principles in the matter of experience, unselfishness and honesty in the service of Christ. May his apostolic mantle fall on bishops and preachers, and his “ Plain Account” and other scriptural treatises designed for the heart reach and impress the*hearts of all the millions who have heard '* the universal gospel - call through an Arminian system of evangel­ism 1 The Wesleyan doctrine must always bo in the forefront if this world is ever to be saved. •

A Notable Anniversary,Than “ Old Union,” there is not proba­

bly a ‘Methodist .church in that city of churches, Philadelphia, or any other city in the land; more honored in the record of its past history* its succession of great preachers, its olUcial boards, and an intel­ligent membership covering three genera^ tions.’;1';.' .v.;-.'r • / ; ' ■ . ';','

Ninety years, ago-' it, was founded by a colony of fifty members from the mother church, St. GeOrges,' and its home Was known as “ The Academy,” Fourth, below Arch St. Then what was long known as tho largest and finest Methodist church in this country was built, and its pulpit was filled by most of tlie distinguished preach­ers of Europe and America. Of the thousands converted at its altars, "over sixty young men were sent Into the Chris­tian ministry, a few of whom, in connec­tion with several of the ex-pastors, were glad to join inreunion services a t the 90th Anniversary ob last Sabbath, Feb; 22. •

This.anniversary was held n tth eN ew Union, a boautlful church edifice erected on Diamond S t, west of 20th, to perpetu­ate the name, and gather in the remnant Of membership of the - old Fourth .St. Church, which on account of location was abaudouod a fow years ago and sold for busluess purposes.

The program planned by Rev. J . F. Crbuch, present pastor of Union, was designed to include eight days of .varied services, commencing ou Friday evening, Feb. 20, with a lovo feast which.was held according to old-fashioned usages, attract; ing many old members Jand friends of the.former, society from '.distant purtsi of the c ity ,' Who were made • aware of the fact that tho old fire still burned on the new church altar, and in the hearts.of the Union, membership. ’*■ A general sociable followed on Saturday evening, and the rainstorm.could not keep people bound together by.such strong and sacred ties from meeting to renew tho hal­lowed intercourse of other days and years.

Sabbath, Feb. 22, was the great day of celebration, and .bright: sunshine j; with largo congregations, morning, • afternoon and evening, gave unbounded eclat to the occasion. Dr. E. II, Stokes j of Ocean Grove,^ son and ofllclal of old Union, who had on a former celebration written nn an­niversary poem which was published by Rev. R. J. Carson, thou pastor, was se­lected to preach tho 90th anniversary ser­mon at i0.80 AvitV:: He entered the beauti ful church in tho midst of a happy morn: Ing experience meeting participated in by preachers and members now, or in former years connected, with this society.; Among those present we noticed Presiding Elder Meredith, Rev. I, R. Merrill, Dr. T. A; Fernloy, Dr. R.,Owen, George Illman and his devoted1 sons, E; P. Aldred, formerly of tho Peninsula, G. W. Statts, and scores of mon and women whoso faces wo re- membered well, but have uot seen before in a decade of yOars.

The pulpit and chancel wero.profusely

decorated with plants and flowers; a full choir under the direction of Chorister Smith, led tbe crowded congregation in holy song. Dr. Fernley. offered tho open-; ibg prayer, and after a splendid anthem, every body settled down to hear a good ser­mon from Ocean Grove’s popular and widely known president. He read two passages of Bcripture as the foundation of his sermon: : . '• .“ The mandrakes give a smell, and-at' our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits new and old.”—Solomon’s song, 7:18. ..

“ Therefore .every scribe which is In­structed unto the kingdom of heaven, Is like unto a man that is a householder Which bringeth forth out of his treasure things; new and old.”—Matt. 18:52.

These correlated texts were obviously chosen for a purpose-^-to present by con­nection, and contrast theoW and the in social and religious life, as viewed from the standpoint of half a.century, and illus­trated In the history of Union Church. The discourse was enlivened by crowding anecdotes and reminiscences of the former days, the old-time preaching and power, and the modern enterprise and improve­ment which holding fast to sound doctrine and maintaining the spirit;of Methodism^ Is marching on to higher altitudes of vic­tory in winning the world to Christ by the leavening influence and power of the gos­pel.' For years, it is probable the Doctor has had no grander chance to preach the.ojd and yet now truths of salvation, by repent^ ance, faith and.holiness,and lie made the best of his opportunity, greatly to the pleasure and profit of such a" representa­tive congregation.. ;: Under the auspices of. tho finely-trained

Sunday-school, Superintendent Patton pre­siding, the afternoon services took the form of a jubilee, with splendid singing and addresses by Dr. Stokes, Bishop;Wal­den, George W. Evans, of Ocean Grove; James Develln, of Camden, N. J .; George W. Wannranker and 0. C. Garber. These were all, except the Bishop, forhier super­intendents of the Sunday-school in the old and now'churches. •• •

The attendance still .increased until, at evening Service-every available seat was occupied, The.seriiion was preached by. Rev. Dr. R. W, Rogers, professor In Dick­inson College, from the.words in Hebrews 7: 10, “ The power of an endless life,” Revs. J . E. Meredith and A. Wallace tak­ing part in the services. '

A reunion of former pastors was held on Monday evening, and Tuesday evening was devoted to those former members of the old church who are now in the minis­try. Rev. Dr, W, H. Mliburn,. Cliaplhln In Congress, was one of the latter, and his sermon oh Wednesday night, although interfered with by a rain storm, was one of the .prominent features; of, the anniver* sary. Other exercises were, reserved for Thursday and Friday evenings, so that the; entire week has been filled out with joy­ous and commemorative events. ;V . The new Union,' It was evident to all in attendance, is a worthy successor of the illustrious oid church,\ which, as Dr, Stokes remarked in his Sunday morning sermon, has been the honored mother of a hundred flourishing orgrnizatlons through her sons in the ministry, the influence of which, will go on and live through eternity.

A Call: os Bishop SaiapbelLDuring Dr. Stokes’s recent visit to Phil­

Campbell, of th e , A J - M,*E, Church, wlio for more than a year past has been confined to his room, disabled by paralysis.” I t was our good fortune to b.e present on this, as it proved to be, an hour worthy of thankful remembrance.

Ringing the door bell at 1923 1ST. Elev­enth St., wo wore ushered Into a well furnished parlor, aud up stairs to a sunny room, where.in his wheel chair, with the Bible open on his lap, we found the Chris­tian.veteran intent on the precious word of God. He was so glad to see the Doc­tor that tlie tears . ran down his furrowed' face, and although hands and feet were, powerless, his soul was full of the old .fire and his mind was as clear as a bell. The conversation was mostly religious, .inci­dentally the arrangements for the “ Bishop Campbell Jubilee Day " at Ocean Grove next July were gone over, and some happy reminiscences of Church and Con. forence work repeated. Before '-leaving the Doctor and Editor both knelt down by the invalid’s chair and offered prayer, to which he heartily responded—joining in himself at the close, with earnest tones, asking God’s blessingon. Oceap Grove, its president,.and all the people, then giving us bis thanks and benediction, as weitwere

.about to depart.He takes a lively interest in nil tho af­

fairs of Ids growing church, maunges his conferences.'with efficiency and skill, and is still, . although; confined, a power for good among his colleagues and the work­ing forces in the churches of his Episcoi pal district.

Ocean Grove,*' a beautiful vase filled with choice flowers In the summer stands near the Auditorium in full view of the multi­tudes who approach that centre of interest from the sea. Were it possible to Inscribe their names, as they join “ the great ma­jority ” beyond the river, that of the lady whoso obituary we printed last week, Mrs.G. W. Evans, would be on the tablet, and quickly following it this week would be one of her-cotemporaries, who departed this life on Sabbath, Feb. 22. We refer to Mrs. E. Illbbs, who built her handsome little cottage on the northwest corner, of New York avenue and Mt. Tabor, oppo­site Greonleaf Park, about the year 1872. There she resided for many successive seasons, surrounded-by her friends arid de­voted to the best Interests of the place.

Mrs. Hibbs was the aunt of Mrs. J . A, Bradley, wife of. the founder of Asbury Park, .and was one of the originators of 'Elirn Cottage Association for the coihfort of aged ministers, working evangelists and missionaries oh vacation., She and Mrs. Evans were united heartily in that benev-: olent undertaking,:and now both rest from their labors,. •• • ; . •. Mrs, Hlbbs of later years declined very much in health, and became more and mor6 enfeebled during last year. She left the Grove in November, intending to spend the winter months at Windsor, N, J., making her home with the family of Mr. Stacy Brown. When her final illness came on she desired to return to Ocean Grove, but' was too feeble to at­tempt .the short journey. Rev. T. S. W il­son, pastor of the 31. E. Church at Wind­sor, with other C h ris tian friends, gave her every attention during her lust days, which wero marked by great peace and resigna­tion.

Her remains were brought to Ocean Grove on Thursday, and funeral services were held in St. Paul’s Church, of which sho has been a member since October, 1887. She was converted at 10 years of ago, and her life has been one of uniform quiet and consistent piety. The twenty-third Psalm and portions of the fourteenth chapter of the gospel by St. John cheered and sus­tained her soul in the laat hours, during which she exclaimed, “ O the beautiful mansions He has prepared for mol”

She, with her hus­band, have for many years been summer visitors at Oceau Grove, greatly enjoying all the services, and finding 'pleasant bn-, tertainment at the Arlington. Leaving, here about the first of September UwVyear; they were both full of joyous expectancy Of a return next summer, but this hope will not be realized. Her illness, intUm- matory rheumatism, was brief, and her death entirely tinexpected. Having buried all their: children,; the. husband stands stricken, crushed, alone, and yet sustained by a blessed hope of eternal reunion bye and bye. “ Blessed are tho dead which die in the Lord.” <

Lyon andB. F. Kidder ofilciatlng, and. each' giving touching experiences in connection with Mrs. Eames’ work in the church during their pastorate. Her death was a sorrow- ful'shock to her many friends in the com­munity, and especially to the chrreh In which she hud taken part fOr twentyJthree years,: and which was built mainly by the enterprprlse and benevolence of her hus band, the late Harris Eames.. Mrs. Eames was a native of tlie province of New Brunswick, She with her family resided, for several seasons at Ocean Grove, and her honored husband who died here about six years ago had made provision for a permanent residence and business at this place. Three sons and a daughter mourn the loss of a tender and Indulgent mother. She is remembered by her friends here as a lady of rare intelligence and excellent Christian character.

Think of it, 858 pages in the Almanac for 1891, a vol­ume of itself, and containing ail the things a ’ man wants to refer to o f a political, financial and statistical character^ add a hundred other things besides, quaint, practical, historical, and useful. The Tri- biine has excelled itself in-this inaniflcerit, nompartisan, and accurate Almanac. The old price of 25 cents a copy is retained, in Bplte of increase of size. No one ever charged The Tribune Almanac with a parti­san bias. I t alms to give just what tlie people want to know and refer to, with re­gard to politics, finance; trade, elections, etc.; and to give them, just as they are,im­partially apd accurately. Among the thousand find one things in this book are the Divorce and Marriage laws in all the States; rates of .Interest; qualifications for voters; a full list of the acts of the last BBBslon of Congress/with the Silver, Autl- Trust, Dependent Pensions, * and.»various other acts in; full*;; the ; new reapportion- meut of Congress! electoral vote for Presi- dent for 100 years; votes in Congress on the Tariff for 100 years; State and Na­tional Committees oE the three principal parties; full list of the men; and women Officers of the World’s Fair; an epitome of the new Census; llst.of Officers and his­torical sketches; of .a: griaat. number of .Societies*; business failures for 83 years; now rules of the House Of Representa­tives; platforms in all the States of tlie political parties; a. valuable showing; and a vast variety of useful and entertaining matters, which we cannot even begin to enumerated The Almannc is a splendid number and every One should have It.

Drop the thing that worries, that; excites, that interests, that thwarts you; let It fall like sediment to the bottom, until the soul is no longer turbid, and say secretly, “ Grant, I beseech .Thee, merci­ful Lord, to Thy faithful servant pardon and peace; that I may be cleansed from all my sins, arid Borve Thee with a quiet mind !"~Bishop Huntington, : ■. ,.

A Grain of Band.

Ocean Grova Work in Winter. ;The writer, spending a Sabbath recently

in this place, thought he would see tho contrast in the Sunday-school, and was quite.surprlsed to find a flourishing Infant school of about 75 scholars, under charge of Mrs. Summers, assisted by Mrs. Clark.

Tho school as conducted is a success.. : It was opened with B in g in g and prayer. * Then tho little ones, were asked If thoy wero ready to recite their versos. Almost every hand went up. I t was amusing to seo a dear little child hold up Its hand, and with a look of eager expectancy watch to bo called on, and then joyfully jumping to its feet only to be compelled, after some hesitancy, to say, “ I don’t re­member It now.” Another one said, “ I said It over and over again ns I was com- Ing to school, but now it is gono.” Mrs. Ward played tho organ, and Mr. Seth very patiently taught tho children the words of tho hynin and led in singing.’ Tho lesson wus explained by the Super­

intendent in such a simple mauner that the smallest child .was interested. .

A novel feature, but certainly a good one, was that visitors as well as teachers; were called upon to recite a verse of Scripture, which nil did. I t was a good example to tho little ones.

With plenty of Binging, giving out of papers, marking attendance, collection,, etc., tho hour devoted to the • service passed very quickly and pleasantly.

I could not help feeling what a blessing it Is that there are'so many men and wo* men who are willing, notwithstanding their numerous household and other cares, to devote a little of the Sabbath to tho training of tho young for God aud heaven.

Senator Plumb this week presented a memorial to the Senate that every friend of peace will cordially wish to see enacted into a law. I t was frooi the Universal

: Peace Union asking the establishment of a commission with authority from the United States tp visit all of the civilized governments of the world for the purpose of trying to Induce them to unite in the organization of an International tribunal of arbitration, to which shall be given au-, khorlty to hear- and determine such vexed questions as nations may fall to determine among themselves, and which would other­wise result in a declaration of war. Is It possible to conceive of a grander mission than that which would be entrusted to this commission should Congress be wise enough to enact the law requested, which unfortunately Is not nt this time yery pro­bable, owing to the short time remaining

, of the present session. I would rather be instrumental In forming such ah interna^

. tional tribunal than to command the most victorious army the world has ever seen, and I haven’t a doubt of the formation of such a tribunal in the future. The num-

...ber of citizens that are demanding this niethod of Bettling international disputes is constantly growing larger in every

; Christian country, and It Is only a ques­tion of time wlien the demand is bound to be heeded in the legislative halls of those countries, and God grant that the time be short,',; : ■

T have seldom listened.to anything more solemti than the singing by a choir of young voices' of “ Hark, Hark, My Soul, Angelic Voices Calling,” yesterday after­noon as the remains of Admiral Porter were borne from his late residence on tho

. way to their final resting place in Arling­ton cemetery. What a .beautiful bit of imagery Is brought to one’s mind by the words of tbe hymn, and how appropriate they are to the,flitting of tho Christian’s soul from Its temporary abode, in response to the Invitation of angelic voices, to its eternal home above. ; .■ a . ,'■'■■■-V v=v

“ Oh woman, great is thy faith; be it unto thee even as thou wilt.” These help­ful words of the Master are inscribed upon a large white banner which hangs above the desk in the church in'which the White Rlbboners are holding their convo­cations here this week under the auspices of the National Women’s Christian Tem- •perance Union. The meetings,, which .have been held twice dally since Sunday, ure largely attended and th$ greatest Inter­est has been manifested in tbe exercises, which havo been very Interesting. Alauy distinguished visitors havo been In attend* ance. Miss Frances'E, Willard was tho principal speaker at one of the meetings which I attended, and I quote her explan­ation of what the white ribbon means: “ The consecration of the white ribbon is consecration of tho body to our God. The consecration of the mind, it seems to me, is another radiant fay of light that con­verges to make the pure white ot our .em­blem.* I rejoice for tho consecration of «tho white ribbon in that it tells a woman that she is a drone and a sluggard unless ;fi}ie stirs around and makes tho beat of her powers. * * The consecration of the•welte ribbon means not only the consecra­tion to the Lord of the body and of the .mind, the two halves of tho great whole, but it also means the consecration to tho Lord of the body and of the mind, tho two halves of the great whole, butit also means

..the consecration to the home. I uso the 'motto of Father Frobel, “ Como let us live for our children,” and I have heard an. other wise klndergarther say: “ Let us rather live with tho children.” When I see a white ribbon I know that that woman has a mother's hear if she be a true white ribboner, whether or no sho has children of her own to prattle around her knee and to call for her caro and affection. The white ribbon means that we are conse-

I crated to the extermination of the legal­ized saloon.” After Miss Willard’s re­marks the immense audience joined in singing “ Blest'be the tie that binds.” *

Both branches of Congress are working industriously ufroa the regular, appropria­tion bills in order to prevent the necessity of holding an extra session In the Spring, and It Is not thought that any other im­portant legislation can be passed in : tho few days remaining of the session. , *

The National Chautauqua is'm aking rapid progress, and our people seem deter­mined that it shall bo a great success, as it should be, and no doubt will be., Superintendent S. II. Hadley, of the McAuley Mission, in New York, who Is. himself a living argument to prove that" drunkards can be reformed, is doing a good work here for the Union Mission and

, tho. cause of temperance generally. lie is a poworful and magnetic speaker, and never falls to arouse the enthusiasm of his hearers, and ho seems Incapable of fatigue when engaged In temperance and relig­ious work.

In appealing to public confi­dence we would lay special em­phasis upon' the fact that we rely;rather upon the sincerity of our promises and the quality of our goods than upon "ca tch y ” advertising for our success. W e never make statem ents in print that , we are not prepared to “ back up ” with facts in the store, and people are fast learning the ex­pression, ‘ only an advertise­m ent ” does not apply to our announcements.

W e are old fashioned, in only one thing, namely, a rigid adherence to downright hon­est methods of dealing; I t is only by this plan we can hope for permanent success. W hat are you to expect from dealers who continually prate about their ability to sell goods tw enty or twenty-five per cent, below all others, or what do you care w hether this or that house has the most square feet of salesroom, or the largest stock? W hat you want is to know that when you are. buy­ing clothes for yourself or boy, if an article is represented as “ all-wool ” of " fast color ” it is just tha t thing and nothing else. . Does any other New Y ork clothier give a ..written guarantee warranting goods and prices by agreeing to re­fund money’ for good;; re turned, or make .restitution for losses on garments th a t have not worn satisfactorily ?

M ost of them pretend to stand by their verbal guaran­tees; one or two do s6 'oth­ers. squirm and twist out of it by insisting upon your accept­ance : of different goods, per­haps just what you don't w an t; while many refuse flatly to part with money once in hand. H ere is one house always rea­dy, to. honor its guatantee at sight. Can you do better than to try how it works ?

T he spring and summer, of 1891 will soon'be upon us, and as time, travels fast it will be Here, before we know it, and perhaps some will riot-be ready for its wants. One of themost important things to at­tend to is the putting, of your mattresses in order. A clean and comfortable, bed for your guest is as important as a good table. This is som.etimes over­looked to the detriment and loss of both landlord arid ten­ant. T he time for -hard and uncomfortable, beds is past. T hey can be . made over very often a t small . expense, and madfe clean and good as new. This is a departm ent that we pay particular attention to, h av ih g 'fo r many years been in. the business. Often this important m atter is put off until late whfen we are rushed with new work.

W e can do the work cheaper now than' later in the season, If any need their mattresses renovated or new ones made, please drop us.a card and,we will call and examine them and give estiihate of cost. All or­ders will receive careful atten­tion. Call and see; our stock of furniture. W e now have on our floor the finest line of cottage furniture ever seen on the Jersey coast. ,;
