are few-but they constitute but small

them out, in most cases, IN towns as menl-

Passumpsic, March %, 1886


Brother Murray
Knowing the interest felt in revivals Of
religion, by the people Of God; Isend you
a brief account of a revival in Charlotte
There is small Baptist church in the
town, with which have been laboring
one half of the time since the lst Of Janua-
ry. found the church praying for re-
vival Of Gods work, and willing to make
efforts in some measure consistent with
their prayers. On Lords day 7th Of Feb
!ruary there were evident signs of an a.
Weakening among the people. The state
of feeling was such that after the usual ex-
ercises of theday, l invited all in the con-
gregatlon who wished to be conversed
with concerning their souls to tarry-
More than twenty who had no interest in
the pardoning mercy Of God tarried, and
listened with interest to the instruction
given. Some felt that they were lost sim
ners and must perish unless God showed
mercy.
Prayer meetings were kept up and well
attended, until Lords day, 2lst, when
some being anxious for a protracted meet
ing, an expression Of the congregation
was taken, and almost every person in the
assembly, saints and sinners, rose express
i've oftheir desire to attend and contribute
to its support. The meeting commenced
on the LIST Of March under very favorable
circumstances. A most earnest spirit Of
suPPllcation for impenitent sinners was
manifest. The meeting continued two
weeks, during which there was remarka-
bic attendance of the impenitent; and deep
feeling on the part of Gods people, for the
salvation of souls. About one hundred
have protested submission Ito God. AT
the close of the meeting we resorted to the
rive. Laplat, ("because there was much

Rev. SIMEON CHAMBERLAIN.
Concluded.
COnc!uded.

The moral character Of MIR Chamber
lain was unexceptionabIy good Like the
chastity Of Caesars wife, it was above
suspicion. Uniformly upright in his bu-
siness-like intercourse with society, his
conduct on no occasion, by its inconsistent
cy with the general tenor Of his actions,
furnished reason to fear, that he was gov
erned less by rectitude Of principle than
by a concern for his reputation. He de-
served and secured universally, the conf
dence Of those who knew him
In the VARIOUS relations cf domestic life,
he was attentive and amiablc AS neigh
Dor he was kind and accommodating
His piety, though sincere and warm,
was calm and rational. Less subject than
most others, to great changes Of feeling,
if he seldom arose to a remarkable eleva-
ton, he seldom was painfully depressed.
His picty was grounded alike in the IN
Outstanding and in the heart Believing,
with an unWavering confidence, in the
truth otChristianity, his faith appropriate
ed to his own necessities its gracious pro-
Visions and his heat rejoiced III their
richness and abundance.
Unlike too MANY who retain a credita-
bic standing in the Christian church, his
piety pervad2d his whole soul, leaving no
part OF his character untouched cxcmpting
no one prevailing disposition from its con.
troll.
Piety with him was eminently PRACTICAL
1t did not exhaust itself in the excess Of it's
own tervor, bearing the soul to an unusual
elevation, and then leaving it with pros
trate energies, in state of spiritual lam
guor. 1t was not confined to mere aspira-
tons Of the heart after God but incorpo-
rated itself with the temper of his soul,
and stamped its character on all his do
ings.
Mr. Chamberlain fulfilled the duties of
his responsible sta ION with fidelity and
success. Ever anxious for the welfare of
the people of whom he had the charge,
he was dlIigent IN the pursuit Of those
measures he thought suited to promote it.
In managing the concerns Of the church,
he was pacific and judicious-sure if he
did not remedy an evil, not to augment it.
His talents as preacher were respect
able. His discourses were characterized
Dy SounoneS5 OF thought and simplicity of
method. If he was less animated than
some, deficiency in this particular could
seldom be mentioned as his fault. His
hearers might always rely upon some
thing which would instruct and improve
them. remember to have heard it re-
marked by iudicious and intelligent man,
who for number of years had attended
his ministry, that he never knew him fail
to bring forward something to interest and
profit his congregation.
His exemption from those foibIes with
which some otherwise good men are Of
ten chargeable, gave weight to his char
'Reter and instructions, which nothing else
could have impaired; andtho' it heightens
the loss, cannot fail to mitigate the sorrows
ofAis. afflicted relatives, and embalm his
memory in the hearts of all who knew
him
Vice things US even in our pleasures,
but virtue consoles US even in our Mains.

From the N. Y. Evangelist.


Dear brother Leavitt--A protracted
meeting of ID days continuance, conduct
ed BY brother Hawley, late Of West Linck-
laen, has Just closed in the west part of
Oswego, with most cheering results
The aspect Of religious things at the com
mencement ofthe meeting waAmost dismal
and forbidding The small Baptist church
had become almost extinct, and moral
darkness greatly increased; scepticism
. alarmingly prevailed; the march of vice
and irreligion was rapid, and the gian
evil, intemperance, had long rioted or
Zion's fair and lovely things. Under
these unEavorable and forbidding circum
stances the meeting commenced, and pro
crossed with increasing interest and pow
er till its close. There were fifty hopefu
conversions. Attic close of the meeting
brother Hawley delivered an address OF
the subject of temperance. in which h.
strongly advocated the principle of tota
abstinence from all that can intoxicate.-
After the address the ''total abstinenc
pledge was circulated; and one hundre,
signatures were obtained, Thus we Sc

ton IN describing the fruits ofthe Spirit

close Of the meeting brother Hawley ha

join soon.e

and whatever be her good qualities, is
not easily destroyed.
Occupy yourself only with houses
hold affairs, wait till your husband
confdes to you those ofa high impor-
lance, and do not give your advice till
he asks il.
Never take upon yourself to be
censor Of your husbands morals, nor
read lectures TO him.
Let your preaching be good ex

always attentive TO him exact

this year amount to 1884 ,537.
Mr.. Kendaly.-This officer in bis
late Report on the state Of the Post
Office Department, says, in speaking
of his predecessor, PR. Barry, "it
may be said Of him, as the head Of this
department, that the reason he had not
better fortune, was, that he was too
good man." Can the successor of
Amos make the same apology for him,
if any should be found necessary p

ed in their new Court House. The
Spectator says the proposition was STAR
ted only a few days ago, by gentleman
of the Bar, and has been met 10 SO gem
erous a spirit by our fellow citizens, as
TO ensure its accomplishments"
Quandary.-lt is amusing to see the
quandary in which the old General,
and has government is placed, in rela-
ton TO obtaining carriage of the mail
on rail reads. Mr.. Kendall, 10 his Re.
pert, appeals to Congress TO take into
consideration the exorbilant demands
Of the rail road companies, for car
rying The mail, as though he con-
sidered Congress as having power TO
restrict them but he is mistaken.
What will he done 10 this case is YET
10 be seen but il is easy 10 perceive
that when the important rail roads al.
ready commenced, shall be completed,
they will embrace the principal mail
routes in the country, and the mail
must be carried on them, or become
nullity from the superior speed of pri.
vate conveyance. The party may con-
tend this is monopoly, that rail roads
are monsters but railroads must and
will be made, and as the government.
has not invested any Of its surplus re-
venue in internal improvements, why,
it cannot, of course, expect to dictate
10 chartered companios.or oppose their
stipulated prices. Had the admins
lration pursued liberal policy on this
subject, it might have been otherwise.
