to feel that fears, on the part of his
audience, of a premature explosion
unless the hymn were quickly ended
we're freely expressed. In announc-
ing his text his voice was husky, but
still quite distinct. When he warmed
with his subject, his voice became
clearer. It was peculiar, and sound
ed as though the words were forced
out between his tongue and the roof
of his mouth, and came from his
brain rather than his chest. But
every word was distinct and clearly
enunciated, and could be heard in
every part of the hall.
To what peculiar element we are to
ascribe Mr.. PUNsHoN's eloquence or
power, we cannot say. One of the
first peculiarities of his oratory that
strikes attention is his entire forges-
fitness of his own personality in the
subject he is portrayiDg. To this We
may add a wealth Of imagery.
and a command Of words seldom
if ever before equalled, inten-
sifed by a depth Of feeling
far below the plummet of ordinary
life. The effect of his sermon on
Sunday upon his audience was marked
and peculiar. There was at first
tendency to break forth into cheers.
These, however. were checked by the
remembrance of the occasion and the
day. Once or twice there was faint
manifestation Of the clapping of
hands, but this too was quickly sus-
pended. Finally some of the older
ministers of the Gospel. with the
abandon characteristic of their re-
vivals in other days and at other
places, lifted up their voices and
shouted Glory to God, and Hal
lelujah." These gave relief to their
pent up feelings, and many were the
responses that greeted the burning
words of the minister, while tears
filed hundreds Of eyes as he por-
trayed the glor:es of that Mount Zion
to which they we're all journeying.
and called upon them to behold their
treasures already collected there.

The Presidential Campaign Of 1868
promises to be one of the most inter
esting and exciting in the history Of
the country. The issues to be dis
eussed and determined by the people
are of the greatest moment to the
peace and prosperity Of the Nation.
1t is highly important that the voters
be properly informed and thoroughly
posted on the political situation. The
most effective way to accomplish this
is to place in their hands a sound and
reliable Republican newspaper.

CHANGE IN CONFERENCE LINES =
Heretofore the Methodist Churches
10 the city of Indianapolis have been
divided into four Conferences, each
Conference having two or more
churches. 1t seems to have been
pretty generally determined upon, at
the present session of the General
Conference, to divide that city into two
Conferences, making Meridian Street
the boundary line. The Conferen ees
to which the churches will be assign
ed are the Indiana and Southeast In
diana, One of the reasons which de-
manded this change is, that the men,
bers of Wesley Chapel, who desire to
build a new church, could not do so,
and have it convenient to the mem
bers, without going outside the boun-
dairy lines of their Conference. The
proposed change will remove this diff
fculty.
