think not: and for the following reasons:
The call comes from the Lord, through his
people, who are made the judges Of the neces-
sary qualifications.
There is much in the Scriptures to lead us
to believe that the Lord required those once
called to enter upon the performance of the
duties to which he called them, notwithstand-
ing the excuses given, (being in many cases
the same given now for non-acceptance,) for
instance Moses, Jonah, and others.
Again, the Christian life is warfare, Chris
tians are soldiers of the Cross, and is it proper
that soldiers should decline the performance Of
special duty, assigned them by their Com
mander-in- Chief; and lastly may not the de-
clining disciple be likcned to the young man
who would not forsake ALL and follow the Sa-
viour, to be perfect? | have been told by an
old Christian, who, in middle life was called to
the Office of Ruling Elder, and who declined
to serve, that he had for many years reproached
himself for unfaithfulness to the Master.

of the stronger brethren of the Church theil

driven from the house and the workshop;
there is no longer a place for him in the
Church, and no available provision is made
for his children in the school. The decadence
of slavery in the North, in the absence of any
earnest and adequate Christian philanthrophy,
resulted in the separation of the blacks from
the whites, and the casting 0"t Of The former,

In permitting things to take such course,
there was most certainly great wrong some
where, not to say great guilt; and that wrong
has been perpetuated among us to the present
hour Our newly aroused zeal for the negro
as freedman ought, however, to call our at

Variations in the Mode of Repeating the
Lords Prayer.

| There is slight verbal variation observable
in the repeating of the Lords Prayer by diff:
ferent persons. This variation is owing to the
fact that some persons use the words given in
the Book of Common Prayer of the Church
of England, and some the form found in the
Common Version of the Scriptures.
The Book of Prayer was compiled during
the reign of Edward VI, at which time the
version of the Scripture in use was that called
Cranmer's Bible. Our present translation Of
the Scripture was made during the reign OF
James [.
Between these two versions are many diff
ferences of translation. The following occur
in the Lords Prayer, and will be recognized as
those noticeable in the repetition of it by diff
ferent persons.
Our Father aohich, Common Version, aoho,
Prayer Book, art in heaven.
As ,oho applied to persons is modern, COM
pared with ,otich it is little remarkable, that
the later form should be found in the earlier
translation. In the original the relative pro-
noun is not used, but the article.
Forgive us our debts as ace forgire our debt
ors. Common Version.) Forgive us our
trespasses as aoe torgire those that trespass
against as prayer Book
The first form is the exact rendering of the
original-deJts and debtors. The word tres
pass is not found in the original as given
Matt. vi: nor as given in Luke xi. In the
latter, different words are used in the two
clauses severally. Forgive us oar sins, for We
also forgive every one that is indebted to as
The word hespass does occur however in imme-
date explanatory connection with the prayer
as given in Matthew.
The conclusion of the Lords Prayer is by
some given simply for erer, Amen; and by
some for erer and erer, Amen. The first is the
translation of the Common Version, the last
that of the Prayer Book. The last seems to
me at once the most expressive and exact.
The original has eis tons dionas---to-into
up to-the times, ages in the plural, and
hence the idea of continued succession-eter-

ton of such persons as they may deem best

behalf of the Presbyterian Church and minis
terry in the South.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted
and the following committee appointed;
