FANCY CHoIRs.-What is fancy choir ?
A fancy choir consists of four singers The
soprano is second rate prima donna in the
opera, who goes into the organ-lOft on Sun
day morning, fresh from the elevating and
sanctifying influences of the green-room.
The contralto is also professional" |" Like
the others, she sings for hire only, and has
no more interest in the services in which she
participates, than one of the pipes of the
organ. The tenor is gay young fellow,
whose voice is not ruined by the dissipated
life he leads. 1t may be good for five years
to come, unless he should become con-
frmed drunkard before that time has ex.
pired, which is by no means impossible
The basso is German, steady enough in
his way, but as full of infdel ideas as his
magnificent voice is of music. These four
persons come together every Sunday to
carry out the scriptural injunction, "Let the
people praise thee, 0 God, let all the peo.
pie praise thee" as it is interpreted by
fashionable congregation.

Things that Must be Done.


There are some things that must be done.
The sooner we do them the better. The
longer we wait, the heavier the burden
grows, and the harder ths work seems to be.
There is time for all things; and things
are more easily done at the right time than
at any other time. We conquer in the fight
of faith by instant obedience. Delay is dis
obedience, and disobedience ends in death.
A British officer in India once had to at
tack about thousand mutinous Sepoys with
fifty or sixty men. His men hesitate'', the
danger seemed too great. If they failed,
they would surely be destroyed The officer
said to them, "Now, my fine fellows, you
have got to do it. The longer you look at
it, the less you will like it. At them, and
they will scamper."
The men gave a cheer and ran forward.
The mutineers did not wait for them. They
fled right and left, in every direction, as if a
thunderbolt had fallen amongst them.
Just so our trouble and temptations van
ish, if we rush forward, with brave heart,
obeying God, and following Christ, our Cap
tain, while if we wait, and hesitate and daily,
and delay, we lose the victory and share the
towards fate.
"Stand up my SOUL shake off thy fears,
And grid the Gospel armor on.
March to the gates of endless joy,
Where Jesus, thy great Captains gone."
The Christian.

Rev. DIR. Brown: Dear Sir,-What are
the churches in our connection doing to pro-
mote the cause of Presbyterianism in Vir-
ginia, to strengthen it where it has foot
hold, and to plant it where it has not!-
What are they doing to inaugurate and fos-
ter those great coordinate enterprises to
which every Church must look, not only to
promote its healthy growth, but to repair the
inroads which, even under the most favora-
bic circumstances, time inevitably makes
upon all human Institutions?
These are questions in which not only all
our churches within the bounds of this Synod
ought to feel lively interest, but all, even
in the broader limits of our whole Church
and accordingly, by way of making a begin
ming, and in order to elicit ike information
from others, 1 purpose in brief article to
give you certain facts in connection with the
two Presbyterian churches in this city, which
you can lay before your readers, if you ap,
prove of the object which 1 have in view in
communicating them, and think they will
contribute anything towards its attainment.
There are two Presbyterian churches in
Petersburg, one of them comparatively
new enterprise, the other dating back to the
year 1913, when it was organized with Rev.
B. H. Rice as pastor, whose pastoral relation
with this, the first church under his charge,
embraced period of fifteen years. Of pas
tor, elders and members constituting the
church at the time of its organization not
one now survives. This church has been
greatly blessed with the able ministrations
and devoted labors of some of the most en-
inent men in the church, most of whom still
live. 1t has not been exempt, however, from
great trials and aflictions, not the least Of
which was the loss of its pastor, Rev. VIM.

the siege of the city, having served the con-
gregation with singular ability and fidelity,

Diversities of Gifts.

A young lady of rank and piety in Scot
land wished much to draw others to the
Saviour. In the circles where she mingled
it seemed impossible for her to speak for
Christie make personal appeals for her
Master-and for a season there was con-
slant struggle in her mind Whenever she
attempted to utter the constant thought and
wish of her heart. the gay laugh, the merry
jest, or light and frivolous manner Of those
about her, blunted every effort. In her dis.
couragement, she laid the matter before the
Lord, and then, as usual, closed the day with
sacred song.
Her maid soon after entering in tears, be-
sought the young lady to sing again the
words of Jesus; and then, in broken accents,
told of the effect Of those sweet strains upon
her own heart. sNo words of entreaty,"
she said, "could ever so affect my soul as
those plaintive songs to which for weeks l
had listened, as my mistress poured out in
them her love for the Redeemer, and her
faith and trust in him."
This was, indeed, a joyous revelation to
the youthful disciple; and SO filed with
gratitude was she for this discovery that
sleep fled from her eyes, "That talent"
she said, 81 now consecrate to God. ] will
sing for him; and if through this means l
may teach souls, my happiness will be COM
plete!"
From this period she gave herself almost
wholly to the study and oppression of sacred
melodies. To skilful touch upon many in,
struments she added voice of uncommon
pathos and power, voice which would en-
trance and thrill her hearers. All, what joy
now to sing of that wondrous love that had
come to save our race, of him who careth for
ALL who took little children in his arms, and
who blessed, with peace unutterable, aged
saints
"That sweet story of old" seemed, through
her rendering of its marvellous truths, more
potent than the studied pages from the pas
tors lips. In drawing-room or hall, or in
the cottages, of humble friends, she sung
for Jesus. The Master blessed her work for
him, and before two years had passed away
she had the delight Of knowing that many
Immediately surrounding her had, through
the gifts bestowed by the Heavenly Father,
been led to see their sins, and flee to the

CHURCH KITCHENs.-The present popular
sociality which fits up kitchens and supper
rooms in church buildings, while it may be
in harmony with the debased machinery of
"charity" throughout, serves to degrade
communion into companionship, the mysti-
cal and sacramental into gregarious frivolity.
There is some ground for anxiety lest cen
surable indulgences may exist in the socia-
bles, as they are called, and lest, under the
admitted need of church use, and religious
control for the social element, we may be
fostering in it forms which permit the world
to overmaSter the church, and alloy the pu-
rity of teaching and discipleship-BishOp

4 TRUE STORY.

Many years ago a child was born in one
Of the counties Of Virginia, in whose quiet
after life and history occurred an incident,
which, while it was never heralded abroad
to his glory in this world, has been heralded
abroad to his glory, in Heaven. This child
was the son Of most respectable worthy pa
rents, and was placed at an early age under
the care and training of merchant in the
neighbOrhOod. As this boy grew up to man
hood, the death of his father entailed upon
him the care and support Of his mother and
sisters. His father died poor; and with
great difficulty, but with willing, cheerful
labor, and loving assiduous care, he contrib
uted to the support and happiness of his 8a
cred trust He prOspered in business, and
Just as a frail, beloved sister who had been
the object of his constant care and sOhci-
tude, I'VE always love most the frailest and
feeblest) bloomed into beautiful womanhoOd,
she fell victim Of disease. The loving
brothers heart sunk into that narrow grave,
in which was encofhued all he loved most
and best.
Among the friends who were present at
the funeral to perform the last sad Offices OF
love and sympathy, there was pious man
of God who, performing the mOurnful rites
of sepulture and dropping loving tear to
the memory of the cherished dead, felt he
owed duty to the living, and performed
that duty faithfully, in the fear of Cod
As friends slowly and sadly left the hal
lowed spot, this good man placed his arm
around his young friend and walked mourn
fully away. Sobs and groans were all that
was said for some time. until at q proper mo-
ment this good man reasoned Of righteousness
temperance and judgment to come and
this young man trembled While so duti
full son and brother, he was yet worldly
minded But God had plOughed his heart
and left its soil in good tilth. The seed tha
day sown took root, but did not come up fol
many DAYS. The cares of the world anC
the deceitfuness Of riches for a while chokeC
the word, and it was unfruitful. Months
rolled away, and he showed no sign, tha
this mournful providence had been in any
degree sancti6ed to him.
One day, ,and this I have from the lipt
of the good man himself this young MAI
approached him, and begged an interview
They retired to his chamber. Oh what Joy
and thanksgiving thrilled that piOu8 heart
when his worldly friend, instead of seeking
his advice upon worldly matters, talked tt
him Of his souls eternal interest. He told
him that those words spoken in love anC
fidelity as they walked from the grave of hi
dead sister, had sunk deep into his heart
and had never left him for an hour; ever
amid the most pressing duties of an active
prosperous life.
This pious friend told me that among
numbers of anxious, conscience stricken sin
ners he had never met one so tortured, S
unhappy, so hopeless, so despairing. Yet h
found him thoroughly acquainted with tn

KEEPING HIS WORD.

The following little poem is from B,rks's NagG
-ipe for Boys and Girls, published at Macon. GeOr
gia- It's BY Mrs. Preston, of Lexington:
Only penny box, he said;.
But the gentleman turned away his head
AS if be shrank from the squaid sight,
Of the boy who stood in the fading light.
'Oh, sir. he stammered you cannot know
(Andhe brushed from his matches the fakes of snow
That the sudden tear might have chance to fall
Or think think you viii take them all
Hungry and cold, at our garret pane,
Baby viii watch till l come again,
Bringing the loat The sun has set,
And he hss not had a ~lum0 OF breakfast yet.
One penny, and then I may buy the bread
The gentleman stopped. And your he said,
Is-l can pat up with the n, hungry and cold,
But Ruby is only FIVE years old.
1 promised our mother before she went,
She knew l would do it and died content
7 promised her sir, through best through worst,
always would INK osi2lby 6sst.' sse,
The gentleman paused at the open door,
such tales he had often heard before;
Bat he fumbled in bis purse in the twilight drear,
i have nothing less than shilling here
'Oh, sir, if you viii only take the pack,
Pll bring you the change in a moment back;
Indeed you may trust mel Trust you? no
But there is the shilling; take it and 60,
The gentleman lolled in his easy chair,
And watched his cigar-wreath melt in the air,
And smiled on his children, and rose to see
The baby asleep on its mothers knee.
And now it is nine by the clock, he said,
time that my darlings were all abed;'
Kiss me good night, and each be sure,
When you're saying your prayers remember the
poor.
Just then came message-'A boy at the door
But ere it was uttered he stood in the floor,
Halfbreathless bewildered and ragged and strange;
Il am Ruby-Mike's brother-I have brought you
the change.
Mixes hurt, sir; twas dark; the snow made him
blind,
And didn't take notice the train was behind,
Til he slipped on the track-aud then it whizzed by,
And he's home in the garrett think he will die.
Yet nothing would do him, sir-nothing would do,
But out through the snow must hurry to you,
OF his hurt he was certain you wouldn't have heard,
And so you might think he had broken his word.
When the garnet they hastily entered, they saw
Two arms, manged, shapeless outstretehed from the
straw,
you did it, dear Ruby-God bless you! he said,
And the boy, gladly smiling, sank back-and was
dead.
