'0Gnt Of punctuaEity in paying vhat is
pledged by the church, rather than to the
want of liberal offer. Let churches see
that their minister has his pay qrhen they a.
gree, and as they agree let the deacons, or
committee go to him at the expiration of the
time agreed on for paying pant, or all his
salary, and not leave him till he either has
his pay directly, or they take his debts upon
their own shoulders, to the tull amount of his
due;-thus liberaling him from all further
care or perplexity upon the subject. Then,
unencumbered with worldly cares, he may
give himself "wholly to the work oil the
ministry" and if he is a man of God, he
will feel growing interest for the church,
and, other things being equal, the pastoral
relation will become sacred and lasting.

BEzAs OPINION OF APOSTLE PAUL AS
A WAITER" When 1 more narrowly
consider the whole genius and character
of Paul's style, must confess that have
found no such sublimity OF speaking in
Plato himself As often as the Apostles
pleased to thunder out the mysteries Of
God, no exquisiteness of vehemence in
Demosthenes is equal to his; as often as
he had mind either to tcrrify men with
The dread of the Divine judgements, or TO
admonish them concerning their conduct
70 to allure them to the contemplation Of
the Divine Benignity, or to excite 'nem
to the duties of piety. and moral,ty-'n .
word, not even in Aristotle himself, nor u
Galen, though most excellent artists, do
find a more exact method OF teaching."

Christian Heroism..Origin OF the Mora.
Wan Missionss

In 1871, a negro called Anthony, who
had contracted an acquaintance with the
servants of Count Zinzendorf, informed
them that he had sister in the island
of ST. Thomas in the West Indies, who
earnestly desired to be instructed in the
principles of religion; but as she had
neither time nor opportunity for it, she
often besought the Great God to send
some person to show her the way of sal
walton. Anthony having soon after OBJ
tanned liberty from his master to visit
Hernhutt, again declared. in the presence
of many Of the congregation, the desire
of his countrymen. and especially Of his
sister, for Christian instruction. But he
added, that the negroes, in consequence OF
their accumulated labors, could have no
opportunity of religious Improvement,
unless their teacher was himself slave,
to instruct them in the midst of their
daily avocations. This representation,
and what the brethren who had been to
Copenhagen related concerning the state
of Greenland, made a deep impression on
many of the congregation; and several o.
them declared their willingness to 60 and
labor among the poor heather. Leonard
Dober, in particular, and Tobias leopold
one of his most intimate friends, felt sc
strong desire to proceed to St. Thomas
tina. they offered not only to 60 to tina
island. but, with philanthropy which
perhaps has scarcely parallel in the an
nails of history. to sell themselves as slGoes
in order to make known the Redeemer t.
the negroes, particularly to the poor wo
man who SO ardently longed for Christian
instruction, should they find no other wa!
of accomplishing their purposes. Som
of the brethren expressed similar de
sire to proceed to Greenland, and shortl,
after missions were undertaken to bot
countries.-Canadu Bap. Nag.

OBITUARY.

Mr.. Murray,-Sir:
l enclose, here
with, notice of the decease of Mrs. Polly
Kellons written by John Kellana, Esqr.,
son of the subject of the notice.
The notice was evidently designed for
publication in your paper but another must
transmit to you the request for its publica-
tion-for the hand that penned it is already
mingling with the dust, and the mind that
dictated this last tribute of respect to de-
ceased mothers virtues, is now, as we
trust, expanding where knowledge is per-
fected, enjoying in full fruition, the bless
ings of God bestowed on the instructions
and examples of devoted and pious moth
er. But on me devolves the task of giving
to the scattered relatives through the medi-
UNI of your paper, the intelligence of their
double loss. The task is soon done-for
all that the customs Of the present day ad-
nit of my saying is, to announce the sim
pie fact,

! But 20 years intimate acquaintance with
the deceased will justify me in adding that
as good citizen, an efficient magistrate,
and a kind neighbor and friend, his loss
must be sensibly felt by all but to the ag-
ed father who survives, and who had look
ed to him to support his declining years,
and smoothe his passage to the grave to

Prlntup was deeply affected during MS
speech, and the tears flowed freely; out
they were not at first perceived. The
broken manner in which Cusick inter-
preted occasioned some smiles but when
a brother announced that tears were fow-
ing down the Indians cheek while we
were smiling, it produced a soul-subduing
influence over the whole assembly. Il
came home with prodigious rebuke =
and every one felt that he wanted to con-
fess and explain to the beloved red breth-
rcn for his thoughtlessness.
A contribution was proposed after the
talk" in aid of Cusick, whose circum-
stances are low, and the handsome sum of
thirty-one dollars was raised most cheer
fully. Previous to this, also. acontribu-
lion of SIS had been raised in the Board
The day before, to purchase for him the

were reported By the committee, and some
of them were interestingly spoken to.
