missionary India, discourse the subject Of missions
in that part Of the world After speaking at some
length on the subject OF MISSIONS Mr. Abbott said there
are at present. in the Karen country 26 churches re-
gularly ordained ministers 5000 Church members who
have been baptized, and about 5000 who attend
worship with two regularly ordained pastors, and %
native assistants. Those natives who have been con-
verted, appear every Sabbath at church. neat clean,
and orderly and the contrast between the
aud the converted is very striking in their mode Of
living and in their general demeanor In 1887 Mr. Ab
bot stopped at the house OF Karen whom he found to
ba at first wild and unapproachable. After time
he was converted, and his house frequented

DIED, in Brighton, Washington Co.,
t.. Dec. Goth, Mr. OBADIAH GLIDER, aged
about 26 years, late Of Kinsman, Trumbul
Co.. Ohio. Mr. G. left his home and friends
in K. some time in Oct. last, and came
to spend the winter with an acquaintance
in this vicinity. During his brief stay with
us, he won the confidence and esteem OF all
with whom he became acquainted. or a
naturally mild and amiable disposition, and
possessed of every manly grace, he was fit.
ted to be, as he was, the ornament of the
society in which he lived. By his death, the
community has been filled with sorrow; and
his departure will be deeply lamented by his
friends, and large circle Of acquaintance,
to whom he was cndeared by his many vir-
tues. During his sickness, which was OF
about two weeks continuance, he manifest.
ed no anxiety to recover, but seemed not
only willing to 60, but also READY. He re-.
pose all his confidence and centered all his
hopes in the Lord Jesus Christ, as his only
and all sufficient Savior. To him he trust.
ed, he had been united by true and living
faith, and this confidence in the Savior, dis
armed Death Of his terrors; and the thought
Of death was pleasing to him. He seemed
to dwell with peculiar delight and satisfac.
ton upon the beautiful hymn Of DR. Watts:
"When can read my title clear,
To mansions in the Skies" etc.,
Especially the last verse, he would repeat
over and over again:
"IIere shall | battle my weary soul,
In seas of heavenly rest,
And not wave of trouble roll,
Across my peaceful breast."
On one occasion. as person knelt by his
bed and prayed that he might be restored to
health, 20, no." said he, "pray that. l may
be sanctified and prepared to die" We
trust his desire was granted, and that now
he is chanting the praises Of God in Heaven,
with all the blood.wa,hed throng who have
gone before him. "Precious in the sight of
the Lord 10 the death Of his saints. "-TCom.
