Tho Hllyor thread which rulis through tho olty
bratud letter Of Bishop OummnH.

tho winter's work In tho churches. Tho Honson

Tho Standard re1oces to know that in somo
PLACES tho spirit Of prayer in bealf Of souls and
OF Chrlst's precious cause is beginning to de-
scond. It regards this as tho first joyful sign of
preceding months the sowers havo gone forth
isooping. Tho paper has something to say
abollt tho way In which tho Jews woro troatod
by tho Alliance. But very little was said, it
which fact tho editor regards. Us a natural. but
perhaps unfortunate oversight. Concerning
tho blahors letter, aftor statement Of tho
facts, tho following surmEae is given:

With in heirlsgitimate busineaa and tho Ameri-

annexation OF tho Sunny Island, aa will be seen
from the following extract:

result in the annexation Of Cuba to this country Wat
