"sureIy, Come Quickly. ,,

The series of meetings st Union Hall. 10 con-
neetion with the Second Advent Society wol-
shipping there, was very auspiciously opened
last evening. There was large and attentive
audience present. The meeting was conducted
is very excellently fiteed by nature, grace. ex-
perience and devotion to do it. His discourse
last evening was rather of preparatory nature
and was able, plain and pointadly practical.
His point appeared to be to get the professe
people of God into the right place, fully conse
Grated, which is very necessary in order to have
q reformation. As usual, he cut no corners,
but preached pure, full and complete gospel,
as he always does. If any cold professors of
religion go to these meetings to get comfort in
their GOODNESS they will most sssuredly come
away disappointed. Elder Grant is very
pleasing, able, plain, comprehensive and pow
erful speaker, md when coupled with the fact
of his being very sincere, earnest and devoted
christian, one can but help liking to listen to
him.
Elder Grant is no new man among the Ad-
vent people, but for twenty-five years he has
been preaching. discussing aud writing in con-
nection with that sect.
After the discourse last evening an excellent
social service took place. The drift and tone
of the remarks that were made indicated that
the people are on the right track for a refoima-
ton.
The services this evening will commence at
o'clock.
Elder Grant announced that he would prob.
ably commence to speak from the large chart,
about Thursday evening.
