Street Preaching.

1t Is never Il difficult matter to gather
IN audience in the streets Of any of our
great cities. Ii is not SO easy 4 matter
to retain lis interest and to instruct it.
A delegation Of half a dozen young men
start out on Sunday afternoon. They
reach "A public square, and take their
station at the point selected for their al
ter-noon services. a dry-goods box, a
doorstep or an old cart, serves the pur-
pose of pulpit. There is no indication
Of the presence of any material from

little hymn-books or song-papers, and
they commence familiar hvmn. Al

AS Mr.. Hardriff was going over the

he was attracted by a beautiful picture
of the Cruciiixion, and was much
struck by it, inquiring of his compan-
ion the story of it, about which he had
never heard. He was much incensed
thereat, and treasured it in his mind.

day, where the twelve tribes do con-
yreyate. he was button holed and held

The song-papers are freely distributed
through the crowd. There are enough
among them who can sing to make q
very respectable chorus and by the end
of the second singing the congregation
has still further sensibly increased.
Then the preacher Of the afternoon
mounts the temporary pulpit. Let him
beware. He speaks to a critical con-
gregation.
Ii he Is honest, earnest, full souled-
if he speaks because his heart is burden
ed with a message which cries out for
uttelance, he will not find in costliest
cathedral an audience more attractive,
more genuinely respectful. He need
fear no Interruptions. Ii some single
scoifer breaks in upon his address, the
sense OF tn entire audience is against
the interruption. and Instantly silences
him. But there is no audience which
detects so instantly, and rejects SO re-
morselcssly, the conventional piety aud
religious tinery which, in more culti-
vated audiences, are suffered To pass
uurebuked. There is no such coan ter
icIt detector as u street audience. Tue
speaker must strike tn, heart of the sub
ject in his opening sentence. He must
be short, sharp, clear, ringing, inclslve.
n truce to all wordv defamation, to
all irothing and ioaininS now. On the
other hand, he need not select his
words aud trim his phrases, lest he of
iend some sensitive ear. The boldest
proclamation of the most obnoxious
doctrine will not disturb the serenity
of his congregation, il il is uttered As
the honest conviction of the speakers
heart. But woe to the dull speaker who
lacks the magnetic power which fixes
every eye upon him and compels the
attention OF the iuattentive! Five min
utcs OF dull platitudes suffice to begin
the process of dispersion. The outer
circle OF the ring me.ts away. The
rough-iaced waSherwoman, with her
babe i'll arms, tires Of standing to hear
nothing, and starts for her home again.
The loungcrs lounge back to the dram
shop. The boys begin TO feel in their
pockets for their marbles. Now, il the
leader be worthy Of his place, he meas
urcs instantly the mcttlc OF his speaker,
and checks the threatened dispersion Of
the congregation. The battlefield is
no place for courtesies. lie strikes up
familiar air. The congregation joins i'll.
