sympathy with the Common People


ONE of the causes of the failure of many
ministers in doing good, is their want Of a
sympathy with the common people whom
they are aiming to reach. They neither
know nor care to learn how they reason and
feel on the subject Of religion or anything
clse This evil is especially prevalent among
ministers who are scholastic men, who have
been shut up for years within the walls OF
colleges and seminaries of learning. We Of
ten find that a rude and comparatively un-
cultivated but naturally strong minded man,
will sway his thousands Of the common peo-
pie, where his more polished neighbor does
his hundreds. This is sometimes urged as
an argument against learning in the ministry,
but it is not necessary result of or concom-
liant to learning. We have striking illus
tration that it is not in the person Of the
late DR.. Chalmers. The life Of Alexander
Patterson, who was man of very humble Or
igin, has lately been published, from which
we learn that his family were the especial OBJ
iects Of DR.. C's care and notice. 1t is said
that his affection for Saunders Patterson" !"
who was an humble ploughman, was for a
quarter Of century that Of a fast friend
knowing his retiring mOdesty, which made
him shrink from joining circle Of strangers,
Dr. Chalmers used to. invite him to tea or to
breakfast alone, not grudging to spend two
or three hours with him in converse about
the things of God" and this when he was
conducting two classes in the University, and
sitting up habitually till one o'clock in the
morning. Long before he came to Elm
burgh, and during the blaze Of his pulpit pop
ularity, whenever the Doctor revisited Fife,
he no sooner arrived at Dairsie Manse, than
forthwith be made of for the adjoining farm,
where he found Saunders at the Plough+ail,
or otherwise employed as farm servant
On such occasions he would bring his hum
be friend along with him TO the Manse, and
at family worship insist on. his leading the
devOtiOns, ~being greatly affected with his
JUNCTION in prayer" One night DR.. AleEan-
der had been invited to remain to supper;
and on his retiring. Dr.. Chalmers remarked
to hIs hostess in his characteristic manner
''See, Madam, how Christianity teaches man
TO handle his knife and fork"
When DR.. Chalmers was removed from
ST. Johns parish in Glasgow. to the UniYer-
sitE Of ST. Andrews he pzid visit, on bis
