Comparative Statistics.


In 1886, the year before the excision of
the four Synods, and two years before the
disruption, there were in conneXion with
the General Assembly 1872 ministers,
2SO7 churches, and 2l9,l26 communi
cants. But Notwithstanding the seces-
sion of nearly half of the ministers and
churches in 1888, the Old School has so
increased that i, is now numerically s,ron-
ger than the United Church in 1896.

the reach Of man If he will only 60 after
them; all things mock him who fingers by
the way. WHO gains money but the man
who tolls with hand or brain? Who finds
knowledge save by the striving Of the under
standing? Who knows anything ofthe beau-
ty in nature but be who Spnrns the morning
couch and is on'the hilltop while his neigh
bors are asleep; can defy the snow and the
rain, and strain up the mountain summit and
endure the MONDAY heats? And through
what watchings and lonely wrestling with
langour and Encouragement The artist le.>ds
out human loneliness from the rough marble,

does not every good man go up 10 his vir-
tue as Jesus VENT like him resist Satan in

tivity is the law Of life, Let us be up and
