TIE New PREAcHER.-Dr. Crary has had
the seasonable element in high degree in
his editorials recently. We quote from one
in the Central, September 26th, entitled ''fhe
New Preacher
Now, whoever your new preacher may be,
whether you petitioned for or against him, or
came only by the will Of the Church authori-
ties, consider that the Church sends him to
care for your soul, and to seek and lead to
Christ those who are sinners. He deserves
your confidence, your hearty and constant
sympathy aud aid, in all matters that pertain
to his work. You should not fail to have and
manifest proper concern for his temporal
comfort. How can man have any heart to
labor for and with people when he is thrust
with his family, into an uncomfortable par
sonage, and sees that the stewards are driv-
ing a sharp bargain with him, determined to
pay as little as possible? You touch the best
part of mans nature when you show him
love, and care for his loved ones. There is
no place where liberal support pays 50 well
as among MINISTER'S A half-starved lawyer,
doctor, or school-teacher, is most pitiable
sight; but an impoverished, ill-fed, and i'll
clothed minister seems to us always an argu-
ment against the Divine goodness Make the
acquaintance of your pastor as soon as you
can. Don't wait for him to come to you, but
call at the parsonage and make him welcome
with pleasant words and smiles. Proffer
your assistance in any matters in which you
can help him. There are many ways in
which kindness and good will can be shown
This is the style in which pastor is made g
| blessing. But if you receive him with dis
| trust, make hasty pre>judgments in his favor
you will scarcely fail to make him uncom
