could speak the matchless worth,
could sound the glories forth,
I'D soar and touch the heavily strings,
And vie with Gabriel while he sings,
In notes almost divine.
I'd sing the precious blood he split,
My ransom from the dreadful guilt
OF sin and wrath divine:
I'd sing his glorious Righteousness,
In which all perfect heavenly dress
My soul shall ever shine.
I'd sing the characters he bears,
And all the forma of love he wears,
Exalted on his throne;
In Hottest sosgs Of sweetest praise,
Iwould, to everlasting days,
Make all his glorIes known.
Soon the delightful morn will come
When my dear Lsrd will bring me home,
And shall see his face:
Then with my Savior, Brother, Friend
blest eternity III spend
Triumphant in his grace.
The Rev DR.. NEvrN, President of the Theological Sc
minary the German Reformed Church, Mercersburgh
Pa, next addressed the meeting. He moved the following
That the Emgrant German population of this country
rapidly expanding in every direction forms most inter

is challenging the earnest regards Of the American chur
The Doctor was rather prosy, and was heard with a
good deal Of uneasiness The ladies chatted and cri-

Mysticism. Then, again, the German mind plas

German population Of this country for the exercise Of
the energies of that society.
Tho Rev. DIR. LYMAN BrEcHsR moved the last resolu.
ton which vast Nr . y
THAT in the present conflict of spiritual religion with
Journalism and nfdely the rpess must not be left to the
control of the enemy but its power must be welded in
achieving and perpetuating the conquests OF truth.
Thei resolution was SO plain he said that needed
argument enforce it. When he looked Of what wss do
ing for religion by the press he wondered that the devil
did not despair and give up his business ss bad job
