A GOOD SERMON.
Those who Constantly Hold up the
Ierr0rs of He'll are Mere Pro.
feSSOrs.
Those who Preach the Mercy and Love
OF God are Real Christians.

On Sunday night Rev. =. L.. Morris preached
TO an attentive congregation n truly Christian
sermon, edilyipg and persuasive 10 all VINO
heard him. The leading ideas presented
were the mercy of God and the plan OF saliva
ton and we can say We wish always TO hear
from preachers such sermons az appeal 10 inc
(ioI.llke attributes Of mans nature instead
of To his servile Tears. We can always Judge
of The religion OF Il preacher by his sermons
TOR If he be constantly holding up the terrors
OF hell lie Is Il mere professor. while II nc
preach the love and mercy or God he Is u
Christian, and will surely keep.up q rellgiouS
spirit In bis hearers. We once heard q popu-
lar preacher OF the past in this town say 1t
was sometimes necessary TO take hold or u
man and shake him over the flames oi hell
in order 10 convert and rave his soul. IL Is
true this beg els u Servile . IT, ana solomon
SAYS, 1.-The lear OF the Loru IS the beginning
of WISDOM" but does he not mean that fear
which Il child has Tor his earthly parent. WHO

child. neither can IL cruel God have i loving
subject. God. however, Is mercy, COMPASSION
love in all hin a1iictions and diSpenSations,
and SO he should be held out, and so he Was on
Sunday night. We hear Mr.. Morris SO sell
dom that we can't say how often or whether
ever he breaches those blood and thunder SER
mons, which ~diSappoint anu burden the near
ers, The best preacher Is he who labOrs by
love to keep his CT urciI together. We III
Stance Spurgeon, In whose sermons only one

can be found on the penal character OF God,
also DR.. Baker, who revelled In his sermons
In the love Of God and glories OF heaven. we
heard him twice some twenty-five ycaes ago,
and on one occasion, after describing the gol'
den streets and beautiful anthems Of the New
Jerusalem, he spoke OF the time no would 10
there and how he expected TO be met by his
dead child Angel, with tears streaming down
his cheeks, he stretched his hands towards
heaven and appeared ready TO take his night
from the pulpit. These great preachers labor
ed to revive the church, and this never fails
10 con vert souls.
Whenever God is held up as q tyrant, re-
joicing in the fortunes Of the damned, he IL
belied and people are driven OF, but when
those beautiful, glorious, heavenly attributes
OF His nature, love. mercy, holiness, arc de,
| picted, the heart Of every nearer Is ~rejoiccd
and Is benefited. God IL good at all times. He
says Turn ye, turn ye, foc why vii! We die,

stern justice demands his punishment and
not the pleasure OF God. The way Of salva.
ton is plain, easy and open to all and II q
man is lost it is not the Lords pleasure bu,

DEAR I R:-The insects which OF LEFT with
me Yesterday prove to be very different from
the cuIumon HcsSian fly. They belong TO the
Ieafhoppers OicddeitimG,) and constitute a
new species OF the genus JassuS.. specimens
OF an allied species were received at this de-
partment some time since from Texas, where
they were reported as appearing In immense
numbers, doing considerable damage 10
wheat.
Being. as 1t is, a new insect, IT Is somewhat
difficult TO suggest u practical remedy WIN
the so called "thrips" OF the grape, which DC
longs to an allied genus. 1t has long been the
custom to destroy them by passing through
the vineyard at night with flaming torches,
or BY building fires upon different parts OF
the premises. Beyond q doubt your cores
pondent would find greater or less rcllel oy
irving this method Of ex~termination.
The appearance Of this insect In sncn I'M
mense nunbers Is of great interest entolno-
logically speaking; and rs the specimens
which YOU handed me were in o very dllapl-
dated condition, additional specimens Tor our
COLLECTION will be Thankfully received.
