He received me with bright smile and
warm pressure of the hand, and without any
parley, approached the one subject. was
surprised and delighted to find him capable
of sustained conversational though his
utterance was labored and broken, his
thought was as trenchant and consecutive,
and far more matured, than when we parted
three years before. 1 alluded in form, as
far as possible from offensive, to the tempta-
ton of his rationalistic surroundings at
Heidelberg. I'VE will not waste words on
that matter said he; thank God never had
doubt about the truth of his revealed re-
ligion.
"The very next sentence showed me how
squarely he stood on Gods platform, as to
the whole subject of his relations to God.
Never have I met the mind and heart which
worked SO truly, and soundly, and purely in
understanding itself and its condition, and
in apprehending and appreciating Gods
plan of salvation. The ordinary confusions
of the intellect and delusions of heart were
alike and at once sifted, solved, crushed,
abandoned. You will pardon one ilustra-
tration. Well knowing his peculiarly hon.
orable and spirited nature, I feared that he
would hesitate to rest freely and fully on the
mercy of God in his extremity, not having
given him his days of health. l alluded to
this, as subtle suggestion of the Evil One,
and was attempting to answer it, when he
stopped me with something approaching i'm
patience, saying, You need not dwell on
this point; have no such difficulty, and
that for two reasons: First, because did
not and do not seek God under the pressure
of approaching death alone. 1 tried to be
Christian, before the failure of my health, to
crafty my family; not the highest motive,
certainly, (God forgive me, but not the low

not cast me off because had not sought be-
fore. He is above making such point of
etiquette with his poor creature. My pres
ent helpless condition is, believe, rather
an appeal to Him, than barrier against
His Grace
"Nothing, in my judgment, could better
illustrate the clear cut, definite character of
all his mental processes, his remarkable self
intelligence and the simplicity and beauty
of his Bible-faith."
Such was the life aad death Of this inter-
esting young man. His life was short and
apparently uneventful, yet it was full of
thought, feeling, and development. trust
this short memoir may serve in some measure
to preserve his memory, and may at the same
time cheer, encourage and instruct many Of
the young students who are preparing them
selves to walk in the path which he had
marked out for himself.

For THE CEsrnAssPREsDYrERIAs.
SABBATH EVENING.

In that part of our Directory of Wor-
ship" which relates to "The Sanctifcation
of the Lords Day." we find the following
section
Let the time after the solemn services of
the congregation in public are over, be spent
in reading, meditation, repeating of sermons,
catechising, religious conversation, prayer
for blessing upon the public ordinances,
the singing of psalms, hymns, or spiritual
songs; visiting the sick. relieving the poor,
and in performing such like duties of piety,
charity, and mercy"
Most of our congregations are in the coun-
try, and where they have but one public
service. Consequently the afternoon and
evening of the Sabbath are at the disposal
of the people, to ELL them up in such way
as shall be most for edifcation. No better
outline could be given than the one provided
in our excellent Directory. There are two
extremes to be avoided. Let it not be day
of sloth. 1t never was made for ignoble in
diligence. But on the other hand let it not
be day of intense hustle from morning till
bedtime. There is such thing as an over
doing activity on the Sabbath. The fuuda-
mental idea of the Sabbath is day of rest.
Let the idea of repose, as far as possible,
pervade all Sabbath arrangements, and be
spread over the whole day.
What blessed memories are connected with
Sabbath days, and in my memory especially
with Sabbath evenings. Sweet hymns, SOL
emn prayers, repeating of Catechism and
Scripture, parental counsels-all these come
up now, after fifty years, as delightful
picture, and feel that they are worth to me
more than all that earth could give. Ifpa-
rents would exercise little holy skill, this
day would not be looked forward to with ap-
prehension, but with delight. All would
account it, not ga weariness,' but "the
holy of the Lord, honorable"
The Sabbath evening! All the grace and
all the glory of the Sabbath seem to meet
and mingle at its close. The days duties
and engagements have hallowed the spirit,
and earth never seems so close to the
gates of heaven. The foot of Jacob g ladder
seems then to be placed on our earth, and
the angels of God 60 up and down upon it
with busy feet.
" O time of tranquil Joy and holy feeling
When over earth Gods spirit from above
Spreads out his wing of love:
When sacred thoughts, like angels come appealing
To our tentdoors; O'eve to earth and heaven
The sweetest of the seven!
How peaceful are thy skies, the air is clearer!
As on the advent of gracious time:
The sweetness of its prime
Blesses the world, and Eden's days seem nearer;
hear, in each faint stirring breeze,
Gods voice among the trees.
O, while thy hallowed moments are distilling
Their fresher influence on my heart like dews,
The chamber where muse,
Turns to a temple! He whose converse thrilling
Honored Emmaus that old eventide,
Comes sudden to my side'

Is IT NOT A WONDERFUL THING that the
sum of the Revelation which God has given
to us in the Bible may be compressed into
few words, yea, into one word, CHRIST {?
1t is mercifully so ordered, as every minis
ter of the gospel can attest. How often are
we called to the bedside of the dying, when
few words may be all that the poor soul
can understand.
"This is a faithful saying, that Christ
Jesus came into the world to save sinners. !"
Here is the core of the gospel in few
words; and yet the world cannot contain
the books that might be written in order to
exhaust this theme.

Welded cheerful acquiescence. Young
Miller had not selected his avocation light
ly. Conscious of his mental power, his en-
ergy. industry, and capacity for labor, he
determined to furnish himself for the attain
ment of success in the highest walk of that
noble, but laborious profession. He regard
ed a large city as affording the widest field
for high success, and had begun to look upon
New York, as the place of his future resi-
dence. Before launching his little bark on
professional waters so broad and deep, he
felt the necessity of not only equipping him
self completely in the Law proper, but he
deemed it of prime Importance to become a
thorough master of German and French, es-
pccially the former. With these aims and
purposes decisively formed, in Sept, 1868,
he sailed for Europe, and entered the Uni
versity of Heidelberg, to study "Civil Law

sor Vangerow.
