A Pleasant Surprise.

oACo, Aug. 10Th, 1871.
To the Editor Of the Press:
s. M. Davis, Esq, proprietor of the estate
covered by the Ocean House, Orchard Beach,
was taken back last evening while making
his usual tour of the house, upon discovering a
general and mysterious gathering of the ''help'
of the house, to the number of about seventy,
within the little hall adjoining the dining hall.
Ignorant of the purpose of the meeting, yet
not wishing to disturb it, Mr.. Davis was about
retiring, but Mr.. Allen, the Clerk, coming
along just then and saying casually, ''suppos-
ing we go in and see what's going on, induced
Mr. Davis to return leisurely to the hail. At
his appearance, the band broke forth the well
coming strains of "Hail to the Chief" and
presently thereafter, Mr.. Demeritt of Dover,
with brief but appropriate speech, expressing
the universal respect, favor and high esteem
IN which Mr. Davis is keld by all in the house,
presented him with a rich and elegant watch
of Waltham manufacture, also a fine chased
gold ring. Mr.. Davis, who like Grant, is a
man of works rather than of words, was for
awhile carried away in whirlwind of thought
but got back in time to respond very graceful.

a manner highly pleasing to all present.

the Pine street Church of your city. preached
from these words, 'In him was life.' The
speaker gave US Christ as the great standard of
life. 1t was true in the intellectual world.
Heather nations place chains on the intellect
so that they never rise above their Gods. The.
DRY never elevates; christianity always. HUI
man religion depresses, degrades; abe religion
of Christ raises up, purifies The Bible every
where declares that God hates sin. The de-
struction Of the old world by the flood was a,
manifestation of Gods hatred of sin. The
scene in the Garden, and on Calvary summit,
spoke in tones that have been ringing in the
ears of man for 1900 years, and will continue
to the end of time of Gods great hatred of
sin. Sin is debt, and we are debtors in the
sight of God. But this is not all; it is dead
ly poison. 1t is DEATH Death separates US
from God In the great Church OF st. Peter
at Rome, one looking at the outside could see
nothing but rough looking window of stained
| glass, but when You were inside you would see
that it was a beautiful painting, representing
the Savior. So one looking to Christ nailed to
| the cross from an outside view can see nothing
| but stern JUSTICE but another, looking into the
| face of the blessed Jesus as he cries, Father,
forgive them, for they not what they do sees
nothing but love- 1t separates from the power
to do right what we have been fighting against
all our lives. 1t separates us from happiness.
We long for something that we have not; we
are not happy. We unjust have the new life,
the life OF Christ. True life is only to be found
in Him. We must be united to Christ, the
living vine; then shall we bring forth fruit
unto life eternal. Rev. Mr. Hanneburgh is a
young man of great natural abilities, good
education and an earnest worker in the cause
of the Master.
The interest in the meetings increases rapid
