DEAR BROTHER MURRAY:
Convinced that the system Of Ameri-
can Slavery is a CRYING Sin, against law
and gospel, God and man, some twenty
persons formed themselves into so.;e:y,
last August, to be called the Wiim;n 5tyn
Anti-slavery Society. Our number grad
ualy increased to rising Of thirty.
The 4th inst. was appointed for the an
nual meeting of both the Temperance and
AntiSlavery Societies, at the Baptis meet
ing-house. The Methodist minister. Mr.
Quimby, addressed the Temperance Soci-
ETY., which consists Of more than $40 mem
bers, to which was added some lG names.
l then addressed the Ants Slavery Society
with some success. Mr. Whee' ok, the
Congrcgational;st minister, was present,
and manifested his cordial aprrob ution OF
both subjects, and made some rem lrEs on
the subject Of abolition, ana cAe>rfu;Iv Of
ft'rel his place of WORSHIP, the town house,
for an abolition meeting the next d!y, when
Mr. Packard Of Shelhunp, Mass. pastor
and colleague with his venerable fn'her. OF
Of the Congregational Church in that
place was expected TO address US But
when the time came it was thought the
place, would be too small for US, when cur
brethren, the Me.hodi5's f. ee y opened and
kindly received US into their Convenient
place Of worship. The day was Gn2 on1
the assembly res pcc:4bIc both as t. mum
bers and d'por:mcnt.
The address was abe, convincing aud
sltisIctory-he showed the origin, ~

try. AT the close when tn, sserbIv

REVEALS.

We ate permitted again to inform our
readers that the work of grace in Serbia,
N this county, Of which we gave notice in
our last number, continues to progress -
Although the protracted meeting has cos
I'd, except during the evenings, yet the
work OF conversion goes forward. We
are not able to give the precise numb, r
who have been the subjects Of renewing
grace since the revival commenced. but
are assured by the dear brethren who have
Iabored there during the whole time, that
quite number of backsIiders have been
reclaimed, and sinners turned to the Say
ior.-Union { Osace20) Herald.

JAY 20, 1896.

The following candid communication,
from a worthy Congregationahst minister,
deserves some consideration. The COM
promise which he suggests, It will be seen
By reading the article through, proposes no
sacrifice or surendry Of principle. The
object seems to be to unite the means Of
supporting gospel preaching among denom-
nations to q great extent agreed, each Of
which, il the means be separated would be
feeble. Such union would not be without
precedent in this region. 1t has been prac-
ticed in an adjacent town between Congre-
Qationalists and Baptists for some years
The latter are the more numerous IN the
town and have had minister OF their own
order most Of the time; the table however
was lately turned for while and the other
had theirs. The course pursued we believe
to be somewhat like this: The minister en-
ployed, Of whichever denomination, is, so
far as is convenient, 10 exchange with some
minister Of the other denomination enough
to give his supporters Of that denomination
their own preaching in proportion to their
support rendered him-at least there is to be
an exchange if convenient so far as to &C.
commodats in the administration Of the or
dinances.
Most certainly Christians ough, to NEE,
at all points where they agree. Let them
treat each other with kindness, yet with
christian fidelity, OF points Of disagreement
When our brother speaks ofthe union OF
effort in the Bible cause, it is presumed that
he refers to what loGs.

mischief, but they failed to mark him down,
and on the last day could remain, resol-

him, by watching at night. The spot /

on our perch for couple of hours without

so clear was the light, that you could see
the Jackals at the distance Of half mile,
sneaking along towards the village. II

of Brinarries passing by stopped to water
their bullocks at the tank. They loitered
for some time, and becoming inpatient, !

some bushes between me and the tree. To
make my situation quite decided, saw his
black arm pointing nearly straight under
him, on my side of his post. 1t was very
evident that | couldaot regain the tree, al.

was nothing for it but to drop behind bush

up to the end of his rope, making desperate
exertions to break it. and then lie down
shaking in every limb. and believing in Q
most piteous manner. The tiger saw hin
plain enough, but suspecting something
wrong, he walked growing round the tree
as if he did not observe him. At last he
made fatal spring with a horrid shriel
