Ieet 10 this infection. If taken In season it expels
II from the system 1t is absorbed and thus keeps
those who use ii free from its attacks; keeps the

Consequently il not only cures. but protects FROM

THE CoUNTENANCE.- The following
from the Louisiana Baprist is literally
true, and expresses our sentiments ex-
actly in references to the 9. vinegar
face " ministry of the present age
!" When Demosthenese was so care
fully preparing himself to be the first
of orators, are we to suppose he neg
leoted the expression of his counten-
ance Would he correct an imperfect
enunciation and Struggling Of the
shoulders, and not avoid distortions of
the countenance I? 1t is hardly pro-
bable. But ministers seem to think
tits no matter how their faces look
when they are disceursing the sublirn-
est th9mes. Some wear perfect
wreath of frowns. as ifthey weresole-
ly under the influence of scorn, or hate
or some other passion not at all fit for
for minister's heart. Others look as
if they were angry eaough 20 snap off
somebody's head. Others swell and
strut and have on an air of inefiable
contempt as if they thought themselves
scolding pack of sheep killing-dogs.
Some twist and grinace as if they were
swallowing castor oil er other naase-
GUS stuff, for which they were just
ready to vomit. Others still put on
such airs and smiles, even while utter
ing the most solemn exhortatious as
make them look ridiculous proud.
They do not think about it, or perhaps
notice it, but the audience does. We
have often been constrained to look
away from the preacher that we might
only hear him. Many gooddisconrsas
are measurably spoiled by these nm
.eoitth gTimaees. Let them be avoided.
An easy, natural manner should be
cultivated by every public speaker,
but especially by the ministers of the
gospel.r

CHURCH GOVERNMENT.
BIZ ANXIOUS.

II
What is the difference between the
Methodist Episcopal and Methodist
Protestant churches With respect 10
the doctrines, means of grace and mode
Of worship there is no difference. But
as concerns discipline or the govern
mental affairs of the church, there is a
vast difference.
In the Methodist Episcopal church
the governmental affairs are entirely in
the hands Of the itinerate ministry, 10
the exclusion Of the local ministry and
laity. Thus we find the same class Of
men, holding in their hands the three
great powers Of the government --leg-
5slative, judicial and executive, and
exercising the same as if held by divine
right, of the character of such policy
we will quote sentiment from Dr. H.
B. Bascom, bishop of the Methodist
Episcopal Church South. A govern
meht uniting the legislative, Judicial
and executive powers in the hands Of
the same men, is an abs urdity in theory
and in practice, tyranny, the executive
power in every government should be
subordinate TO the legislative and the
Judicial independent Of both. Where
eFer, therefore, i happens that these
three departments Of government are
in the hands Of the same body Of men,
and these men, not the representatives
of the people, first making the laws,
then executing them, and finally, the
Judges Of their acts: there is no Liberty
the people are virtually enslayed, and
liableto be received at any time. In
a government, civil or ecclesiastical.
where The same men are legislators
administrators, and judges; in relation
Ito all the laws, and every possible APP
| pfeation of them, the people, whether
well or i'll treated, are in fact, slaves, for
the only remedy against such a despo-
tism is revolt. (See Bascom's Declara
ton Of Rights.l IN the Methodist Pro
testant Church the poliiy is such thai
the sovereign power is distributed be
| tweenthe ministry and the laity, tbesi
two classes are both represented in the
! rule making department, consequently
no privileged class is recognized a
ruling by divine right; hence, the leg
| ;slative. judicial and executive powers
Of government are Kept seperate and
apart, the republican principle being
