COMFORTED OF GOD.

But l am greatly eOmfortsd of God.
These are words which came from beloved
brother in the ministry, in a letter received
more than ten years ago concerning ter
rible bereavement which be has just suffered.
A noble son, one whom all loved, and who
had entered the Theological Seminary to
prepare for preaching the gospel, this son,
as meek and gentle as ne was brave, had
fallen in battle. 1t was dark shadow upon
all the house. The tears, the tribulation and
anguish witnessed there, who can describe?
We shall not try to do 50. IL was secret
scene of grief to remain with them and with
their covenant God. who could and who did
most efGectuaIy comfort.
Upon reading the expression quoted above,
we could not help thinking how greatly
blessed was that stricken father, who knew
so we'll the best source of consolation. Earth
ly comforts we're not wanting. MY friends
and brethren" he said, shave been extreme
ly kind and sympathising." The value of
our dear friends is never more precious than
amid such scenes.
But after all, there is but One who can
thoroughly reach and heal wounded heart
=" the God of all comfort" Friends may
pity and weep. but they cannot always re-
heve. There is One who knows us far bet
ter than we can ever be known by mortal
man. He was once fellow sufferer, tried
Gin all points like as we are Who upon
earth could ever say, with voice which the
heart so felt at once, weep not?' His own
soft hand wiped away many tears here below;
in the world above, around the throne, by
the living waters he will wipe away all
tears from their eyes.
The kindness of our friends is limited to
the present life. They may be tender in
our sickness, may gather around our dying
pillow, and with soft hand may they smooth
it; they cannot be "a rod and staff for
as through ths ''dark valley.1 But the arm
Of she SayioUr-our strength through life
viii it not be all sufficient ia death Bless
ed be the God of all comfort, who cOmfOrteth
US in all our fluctuations, that we may be
able to comfort them who are in any trouble,
by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are
comforted of God"
There are many children of God now,
there always have been many, who are in
sorrow and trouble. Letthem not forget for
a moment, that the gospel of their hope is
full of promises and help equal to their day.
Let them not be afraid, but meet their trials
like men, or rather meet them like Chris
tians, "strOng in the grace that is in Christ
Jesus. That grace will come when we have
taken the step that needs it. The waters of
Jordan were not divided till the time for
passing over. It is no doubtful case whether
God can help us, nor ought it to be any
doubtful case, after what be has done, wheth-
er he wiH help Us.
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1875-01-13

A correspondent of the Philadelphia Presbyterian
gives the following account of Presbyterianism in
the Southern States.
The Presbyterian Church in the South is max.
ing commeDdable progress We hear cheering
have been "years of the right hand of the Most
High" The war left them in destitute and al
most helpless condition. At the cessation of hos
tilites they found their members scattered. Many
had been killed in battle and some had removed
to other locaities many of their houses of worship
had been burned and otherwise destroyed some
had been used by the army for hospitals and store
houses, and required considerable sum of money
TO repair them before they were fit to be occupied.
lu addition, the majority OF settled pastors had
been tor various reasons removed, and now could
not be resetted on account of the condition of So
cety, and the inability Of the people to sustain a
pastor
But this condition of things did not seem to dis
courage the people beyond an effort With the
spirit and zeal of John Knox, they went to work,
trusting in the Lord of hosts. They gathered their
scattered forces reorganzed congregations rebuilt
churches settled pastors, constituted Presbyteres
and Synods. established Mission Societies. and
sent forth foreign and domestic missionaries. :
They are advancing, but it is under the severest
trials. The Church in other parts of the world
KNOWS Dut lew vi Tue ulluCultlcS WulCu DeseI Tue
pathway of this branch of our common Zion
Think of the subjugated condition of this part Of
our country the prostration of all her interests,
moral, social, financial, and political We may i'm
agine the severity Of that rod under which they
are passing. The ministers are the greatest suffer
ers. venture the opinion that the world for fifty
years has not witnessed such self.denying toll fol-
Christs kingdom as many of these Southern
preachers are enduring to-day. The trials Of pow
erty. not to mention other things, are enough to
drive them from the work, did not the love Of
Christ constrain them to continue Their people
are few, and unable to pay an adequate salary. |
have heard of ministers living in the midst of high
prices on salary OF three hundred dollars per year.
And yet these brethren will not leave their people.
They cling to each other, and share their suerngs.
A popular pastor in South Carolina, whose people
pay him 81 600. refused call, offering So 000.-
His devoted little flock would be scattered if he
left them. Such devotion to the cause as this
church is manifesting will win at last. We have
but one fault to iod with these Southern brethren,
namely. their exclusiveness and lack of sympathy
with other Christian brethren Of the same name,
origin, faith, and zeal.
