THE INCARNATION.

"Glo,y to God IN the highest, and on earth peace
good soiU totOards men,. LUKE III: ID
This is the hymn with which the angels Of
heaven celebrated the incarnation ofour blessed
Lord and Saviour--,his is the song with which
The heavenly host hailed the advent of Him
whom the prophet called "Wonderful, Council
Tor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the
Prince of Pence"
Never before had the world witnessed such
enraptured joy, either on earth Or in heaven, as
now broke from the lips OF those celestial visit
ors in their congratulations to men on this nota-
bile occasion. Many cases are on record in
which the inhabitants of the upper world are
represented as having been filled with nsnppres-
sibe joy, in reference 10 events pertaining to
this world, but in none do they seem to have
been overwhelmed with such heavenly rapture
as on the case Of our Savour's advent.
When the Creator of the Universe laid the
corner stone of the earth, when he spread out
the foundation and reared the superstructure of
the world, the morning. stars are said to have
sung together, and all the SONS of God to have
shouted for joy; bsf even on that iustrious oc :
casioh, the JOY felt unquestionably fell short of
that which sweled the bosoms of that celestial
choir who celebrated the birth of the Babe of
Bethlehem.
The birth of early prophets and earthly heroes
had been announcedby angels in former and
we'll known instances Ishmae and Isaac had
each his celestial precursor; and the mother of
Samson too, was cherished in her lovely and ST.
lent prayers by the consoling promise of dis
tinguished offspring. But in none'of these in
stances there the like ardor of exultation,
and congratulation manifested which now burst
forth from the lips of these heavenly visitors and
broke the solitary meditations slumbers of
shepards on the hills of Bethlehem; and chan
ted in mortal ears that melody which swells the
choir of Paradise
The time had been when God himself came
down from heaven to speak with man; but with
no signs ofjoy or congrauaton. On that day
when the Lord came down from heaven to speak
with Moses on the mount, Sinai verify did pre-
sent a fearful spectacle; thunders rumbled and
beginnings flashed about it-athick and fearful
darkness hanged over its brow-a smoke ascen.
ding like that of furnace--the voice of the
trumpet waxed louder and louder-and the
mountain itself trembed lin view of tue awful
