Kennebec Valley Camp-N Getting

The enthusiasm of the p3ople on the Rich
mond camp ground yesterday plainly shows
| that they will not allow the clouds to cast
shadow of dizziness over their meetings.
Inere is al increased interest 10 the services
| each day and the power of God is demonstrate
ed in wonderful manner. The exercises of
the day began with prayer meetings in the va
| rious tents and cottages. A goodly number
convened under the canvas at the ringing of
the ten o'clock bell and listened to an able
and eloquent discourse by Rev. Mr.. Baldwin of
Skowhegap, from Acts ii, l; ga nd when the
day of Pentecost was fully come, they were
all with one accord in one place." The display
of baptismal power upon the day of Pentecost
was commented on and it was shown that there
are within our reach today the necessary condi-
tions which attended that case, viz: Unity,
prayer and faith. He was succeeded in mis- re-
marks by Rsvs. Ladd, Martin a nd others. At
1 o'clock we'll attended young yeople's meet
ing of deep interest was held in the August a
chapel. The o'clock service called out be-
tween 300 and 400 people. After fervent
prayer by Rev. A. s. Ladd, Rev. v. G. Wheel.
er of Bath, who is highly esteemed by all, de.
liyered an admirable sermon from Isaiah xxi,
IL: "Watchman, what of the night?" The
speaker announced as the soul of the text, the
anxeties of men aud the perfect victory of the
church. All men are anxious about the future
and what is to be our destiny. The wisdom of
this world is vain in relation to the solving
of the problem. No class Of men except Bible
men can rightly understand it. He dwelt up
on the fact that Gods ministers are especially
called of God and have communication with
heaven by the Holy Ghost through the word
He urged the necessity of the people holding
| in their hands an open Bible, both in their
homes, churches and schools, since the Bible
| alone is our chart which poiats US from earth
| to heaven. Concerning the victory of the
church, he announced as the faith of the world
| to be the near coming Of the triumph of Chris
| tianity and the millennial age, and closed with
brilliant description Of the glory of that age.
| The closest attention was paid to the discourse
| which was praiseworthy effort Rev. 1. G.
| Sprague Of AndoYer, preached in the evening
| from ID Kings vi, II. Today at 10 sermon is
| expected from Rsv. Mr.. Sanderson of Water
| vile. In the afternoon Rev. A. s. Ladd will
preach. The Maine State Temperance Camp.
| meeting will commence Aug 20, on the Rich
| mond camp ground, A large attendance is ex-
| pected. and interesting speakers will be pres
| ent.
