4 SOLEMN AND INTERESTING CEREMONY.

At the communion service which held
yesterday afternoon in the Evangelical Congre-
Rational Church, at East Cambridge, thirty per-
sons were received into the church on profess
sion Of their faith, TO one third of whom the or
dinance OF baptism was administered This is
the result in part Of a revival which has lately
taken place there under tho preaching of Rev.
Mr.. Bennett, the pastor. The sermon, by Mr..
Bennett, Was from Acts 4: Ia.
"Beholdng the man which was healed stand
ing with them, they could say nothing against
In the introduction Mr.. B. gave brief &C.
count Of the miracle performed by the apostle
Peter, in the name Of Jesus of Nazareth. The
lame man, who was then healed, met not only
with physical change, but also with spiritu
al, under the influence Of the Holy Ghost. Thu
work of the Holy spirit in the conversion o
SINNERS was then spoken Of as no less wonder
fgi now, than in the day Of Pentecost, thougl
the gift Of healing and the gift Of tongues ha'
ceased.
As the subject Of the discourse the speake
considered the signs of the work of the Hol,
Spirit in healing the diseased heart. Some o
which may be numbered thus: The man VIII
has been healed by the Holy Spirit, has an TN
usual distrust of self, which leads him to plac
his dependence on God. The new creature il
Christ has an increased and purer love for mer
inducing him TO seek their spiritual as well 4
temporal good; has new views Of Christ as hi
Saviour; is ready 10 confess that the grea
change in him has been wrought Of Godj he hs
an aspect Of unusual peace, the peace whiC
psSscth understanding, for in doing the will
God he experiences Joy.
In conclusion few practical remarks, SUI
Rested by the text and the work nf grace, wei
urged home to many hearts from this division
Ihs discourse. "The beholder Of Gods work
the healing Of the spiritually weak can ST
nothing against H." 49,.
The preacher illustrated the fact that conve
sion made persons true husbands, faithf
wives, du,iful children, kind friends, and ru'

The Northern Cross Railroad.

We give place, this week, 10 long arti.
Gle taken from the Quincy Herald, exposing
the trickerv and deception of the managers
of the Northern Cross Railroad. We have
needed some such expose for long time ::
and the Quincy election has elected it.
We have charged the friends of that road
with deception and intrigue, repeatedly ;
and we are indebted TO the Herald for
proof of the charge. According to the
Herald, the Company has no money, no
iron, no contract, and no connection A;
nothing but the bare charter and a bad
character This expose is net the fruit OF
candor or honesty on the part OF the Her
aid, but spite at the wings Of Quincy ;
out il is not the less true. And we now
have a word or two to say in regard to the
position Of Nj. Wood upon this question.
We think we understand it fully.
When Mr.. Wood was a candidate, for
Senator, his opponent, Mr.. Warren at
tempted to make capital of the railroad
question in this county, and it became nee.
essary Tor Mr.. Wood to declare himself
this he did by making the same pledge Civ.
en- by his competitor: that he would vote
for the road. We do no; charge Mr.. Wood
with the breaking Of that pledge, for he
redeemed it 4; we received what was "nomi
mated in the bond;" we doubt whether we
would have got that much il Mr.. Warren
had been elected But Mr.. Wood in hi
character OF Senator for Pike county
betrayed the interests of Pike county
That he did so, requires no proof, for II,
dares not deny that he did all he could t.
beat the Pike County Railroad Bill, aSid,
from his bare vote. And we take this &C
casion 10 say that we do not believe Their
is but one among the prominent men O
Quincy who would have done more in tn
character Of a preventative, for our roa
than Mr.. Wood did; few OF them wou
even have kept o pledge to vote for il
Mr.. Wood certainly did as much for tn
road as our own Representatives-the
both voted for the bill and both helped t
; kill il; the motive was the only difference
: 1t may be that Mr.. Wood will, as the Hel
: aid asserts, exert himself, in good faith,
: pass our charter this fall ; if he does he n
instates himself within the good confdenC
, of the people of Pike county; if not
i remains where his own conduct has place
him. Pittsfeld Free Press.
