Vim. Jacob led the meeting last evening at the
tabernacle, which contained large audience. Mr..
J. was glad the day had gone BY when an and-
ence could be entertained with a representation
Of reformed men. The subject Of his remarks
was intorce 1sory prayer. He wanted the people
not to dictate TO God when lie shall answer
prayer. Neither tie the Almighty down to terms
lie cited st. Augustine IA an instance of the an.
swer to mothers prayers. Himself was a mon
ument to the g,ace of tod in answering his
mothers prayers.
Mr.. Chadbourne of Saco was the next speaker.
His object in lie is to raise men up aud to keep
them from falling lie had suffered from strong
drink. 1t had dragged him down. He had con-
fessed to the people of his own community and
they had taken him back. He fought rum when
Devils kindling wood too plenty. He would
prefer his boy should live where whlskey and rum
sold as publicly fruit on the street corners,
than to enjoy the hospitality of society where
wine and cider are used. Don't give the boy
brandy when he goes in bathing to keep his teeth
from chattering-bye and bye his teeth will chat
ter to some purpose. If drinking men knew
what power there is in the pledge there would be
no difficulty in getting them to put their names
upon 1t. If people believe the drunkard does not
pray they are mistaken He does pray for deliy-
erance. Others believed in prayer; he believed
in work, in law and moral suason. After going
into the gutter and rescuing man, he wanted to
say to the rum seller, Hands off," Indiv idual
effort will bring the man back from his broken
pledge.
